Elaine Begley Photography, Stockton

At Elaine Begley Photography, boudoir shoots don't necessarily require a costume of lingerie. Rather, she and her all-female staff work with whatever a client feels comfortable wearing—even if that means showing just a glimpse of skin. Elaine feels out her client's preferences at a preshoot consultation, and then captures her inner seductress at fun, laid-back boudoir shoots. She retouches resulting snapshots to play up natural beauty.
