We want to be sure our clients know exactly what driveway to pull into when they are looking for our studio, so while this is simple, it is very important and feel it’s kinda a must-do for any biz.
In the past we used to have to go to a local signage printer, then wait, then pick up the sign, shove it into my backseat, etc. These days I am all about internet shopping as long as the shipping is affordable. And Amazon is usually my hunting grounds. I mean if I can watch Gossip Girl AND shop for my studio, I think we can all agree that’s an epic evening. Here is one of the ways that we did just that….
We went with a 24×36 Bay Photo Metallic Print for the a-frame below, it takes a little bit of effort to get it in there, but totally doable. And we were really pleased with how well it held up to the elements. We change ours out about every 2-3 years, just cuz the pink gets a little dull from the sun. I have a feeling that if you did all black writing, on white, it may hold up even longer.

Check out this awesome email we recently received:
“Today I did 3 Boudoir sessions and they were the first ones I have done since purchasing your lighting DVD, Posebook and Perfect Boudoir Action. OMG I had sooo much fun! I felt pretty confident and it just went so smoothly. The photos are a different style than I am use to do but I am so happy with how they turned out. Of course my work is no where as amazing as yours but I think for my first time using lights EVER I did pretty damn good! I feel so proud! lol I want to thank you so much for providing these resources again! I’m just so excited and so happy that I was able to learn from you guys.”
Ok, so I know a LOT of you have been emailing and asking about the Boudoir Shop. As many of you have noticed, we are in the midst of some ch-ch-ch-changes on the shop! Here’s what’s happening.
LIGHTING DVD: The Boudoir Divas’ Lighting & Shooting DVD is ON SALE for just $198 (plus shipping & handling). We are thrilled to offer this DVD again (it took a little hiatus and hasn’t been on the shop for a while). But now it’s back and it’s on sale! Go get your hands on this little beauty NOW!
THE POSEBOOK: Sorry folks, but the Posebook is STILL ON HIATUS. He’ll be back in action SOON… but for now, you’ll just have to wait and be patient. :)
NEW PRODUCTS: As you’ve probably already heard, YES, we are launching new products soon! The Posebook Part Deux will be arriving quite shortly, and after that we’ll start working on the Workshop in a Book – Revised 2012 version! Can’t wait to get these awesome new boudoir photography resources in your hands.
Yes, I know, this is one of the most excited blog posts we have written in a long time. Try to contain yourselves. :) The rumors are ALL TRUE!!!!! We are writing a NEW BOUDOIR POSING GUIDE!!!!!! Woo-hoo!
So, with this being the THIRD Boudoir Divas book that we’ve ever released… we decided that we wanted to do something a little different this time with the foreword. We are ready for one of our photography friends to write it for us. That means YOU. I don’t care if you have shot boudoir for 10 years or 10 months… we are not looking for an ‘expert’ – we just want a real person who is out there doing real boudoir and loving it. If you have come to a Boudoir Divas’ workshop, and/or if you’ve been inspired by us somehow through the years, and/or if you have purchased the original Posebook and found that your business has changed because of the tips you’ve learned with posing… then we want YOU to write this for us! Think about writing a letter to other fellow photographers out there – share a little bit of your story and how posing is important for boudoir. Interested? We’d love to hear from you. Email me: info@theboudoirdivas.com
Since the release of the original boudoir posing guide back in the day, we have received RAVE reviews about it. For instance…
“I received The Boudoir Diva Pose book only a few days before I had a boudoir client scheduled to shoot. This was by no means my first boudoir shoot, but I used the pose guide and only used about 4-5 images in my shoot from the pose book. My session sales are typically $250 for my 5×7 20 image book. After my client saw the images after using The Boudoir Diva Pose book, she purchased one of my largest packages: a 8×8 34 image album. With her sitting fee she spent nearly $700~. I can say without hesitation that the small tweaks I made in my posing that I learned from the Posebook was the reason for my successful sale! Thank you Boudoir Divas! I am so excited to use the rest of the tips I’ve learned from your Posebook!”
“I had done a number of boudoir shoots before I came across the Boudoir Divas. Whilst my clients were always thrilled with what I produced for them, I knew in my heart that I could do so much more … I just had no clue how to start. I invested in the pose book and the minute it was in my hands I felt that tingle of excitement and actually couldn’t sleep the night before my next boudoir shoot. I only referred to the book once or twice during the shoot, but the difference knowing it was there improved my shoot by 1,000! I have posted some of the shots on my Facebook Business Page and the response I’ve had has been amazing … my enquiries alone have increased tenfold! THANK YOU DIVAS!!!!”
“This was a gift from my hubby and I was jealous when I found out that he actually CALLED and ordered the book and spoke with Ashley… gasp.. great hubby! This book is the best! Not only do you get the poses but you get the info from the divas about how to make your girls feel amazing, little tips and tricks to getting the pictures YOU WANT! The DVD was so helpfull because reading how to interact with your client is one thing, actually seeing and hearing how to interact and how to put them in poses is another! So great and just by getting this book, your pictures will already turn out FAB!!!! You will see great things through your camera after getting this book! I bring it where ever I go! Thanks again Divas for a great product!”
We cannot WAIT to launch the next Posebook. Stay tuned, because we’ll be announcing the release soon! xoxo, The Divas
