It's been a while since we featured a bridal boudoir shoot, so we thought it was high time we rekindled our love affair with ethereal lighting, romantic portraits, sexy lingerie and all out glamour.

And what a shoot to start with?

This gorgeous boudoir session is by the wonderful Courtney Stockton Photography.

Erica's boudoir shoot in her home is simple, yet seductive, with sexy lingerie from Victoria Secret, and cute loungewear from Forever 21 – for more ideas on what to wear for a boudoir, check out this inspiration post by the ever-stylish Bené Eaton. 

Fun, relaxed, casual and filled with reams of natural light, this is one chic, sweet, and classy boudoir shoot…

As a photographer, I am more interested in reflecting authenticity and raw emotion than appealing to a certain ideal.

This especially holds true in my boudoir work. I love coming into someone's home, and creating imagery that is a true reflection of them.

Erica's boudoir session was in the home, and we kept it very simple and subtly sexy – I love how this images don't feel like we are trying to hard. These frames are just Erica being herself on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
