Originally a still-life art form, boudoir photography switched to human subjects when clothiers stopped making apple-size garter belts. Bite the fruits of seduction this Valentine’s Day with today’s Groupon: for $69, you get a boudoir photo session at Glamour Shots (a $225 value). The shoot includes:

• A consultation
• An airbrush makeover and hairstyling
• A one-hour photo shoot for one person
• One 8”x10” print or two 5”x7” prints of single image
• A CD with same digitally retouched image<p>

Glamour Shots’ brigade of expert shutterbugs and cosmetologists get subjects ready for evocative boudoir poses with style-enhancing makeovers and photo shoots that result in glossy, high-quality pictures and prints. After a personal consultation with the styling team, clients undergo an airbrushing treatment and hair sculpting.

In the next hour, models meet with photographers one-on-one and strike sultry poses, quickly changing into two or three different outfits to capture a saucy spectrum of looks ranging from sexy bodices to sexy hazmat suits. Depending on the extensiveness of the makeover and the length of séances to retrieve subjects’ souls from the camera, sessions may last between 2 and 2.5 hours. Clients pore over proofs immediately after their session and determine which shot best befits an 8”x10” print or two 5”x7” prints, which is also injected onto a CD.
