Welcome to KWM Boudoir - the side branch of my wedding business! Having always had an interest in this genre of photography, I decided in late 2021 to jump in and go for it! I had just been paid for a wedding and for once it was spare money, so I hired a lovely model over the Christmas holidays, and took a trip down to Glasgow for my first boudoir shoot. I was a little nervous, but I absolutely loved it! Off the back of this, I arranged a few more shoots to get a bit of a portfolio put together, and everything has just snowballed from there! I'm really proud of the images I've put together, but even more proud of how many of the amazing women I've worked with have said they've felt leaving their session. Then there's the reactions to seeing the images!! Please enjoy my images and feel free to contact me with any questions at the bottom of this page!

I had the best time on my recent boudoir shoot with Simon! I tagged along with my friend the night before, and right away he made us feel so welcome. His positive encouragement, professional direction, friendly personality - and great music choice - really set the tone for my shoot the following morning! I arrived at my shoot full of excitement and eagerness, still soaring from the great experience the evening before. I felt completely relaxed and confident with Simon's unfaltering positivity! Having discussed the sort of look he was aiming to achieve prior to the shoot, as well as bringing some of my own ideas, I felt completely prepared going in - and Simon welcomed our creativity with an open mind, which made us feel safe and in control from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend working with Simon, and I can't wait to work with him again in the near future.

I done my first boudoir shoot with Simon and I couldn't have been made to feel more relaxed! He was super upbeat and friendly, making the first meeting as though we'd known each other forever. It was very laid back yet professional shoot, giving me ideas on poses he wanted me to shoot, making sure I was comfortable every step of the way, also asking if I had any ideas of poses I wanted to do. Everything from his music to his manner and humour was 10/10. I look forward to shooting with Simon again in the near future, thank you so much!

My boudoir shoot with Simon was perfect from start to finish. Before we even got going, he made me feel at ease and created a very relaxed, friendly yet professional atmosphere. He let me see some photos for reference of what he was looking for which was helpful and gave plenty of direction but also let me try some ideas as well. It was really nice that he allowed me to be creative and try different things. Simon made me feel confident throughout and the pictures show that. I am incredibly pleased with the images and can't wait to work with Simon again in the future.

AAhhhhh! This was a brilliant first boudoir shoot for both of us! I couldn't have picked a better photographer for popping my boudoir cherry. Aside from being totally professional and easy to get along with, Simon is a great photographer, really knows his stuff and has all the best equipment! Communication before the shoot was on point and he picked me up and dropped me off at the station, with minutes to spare for my return journey! Super friendly and would highly recommend him. Oh, forgot to say, the images are incredible!

I worked with Simon for a boudoir shoot recently and it's no wonder I've booked him for another already. Simon has the ability to create a very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere by maintaining a balance of professionalism and fun throughout the session. He is incredibly organised and creative when it comes to setting up and shooting poses. Any model would be lucky to work with him!

I had the pleasure of meeting and shooting with Simon. From the moment I arrived he put me at ease with a warm and professional welcome. Shoot was a lot of fun as Simon has a great personality and it's very easy to see the passion he has for his work. I strongly recommend him if you get the opportunity to work with him. I look forward to having the chance to work with him again in the future.

I was really nervous about the shoot as I'm incredibly camera shy but Simon was super lovely and professional. The whole experience was really fun and relaxed. He was great at teaching me how to pose (I've never modelled before) and the photos turned out amazing! Overall, just a really fantastic experience, I'm so glad I did it!

FAQ

There's some poses I see that I don't like or wouldn't want to do?

This is absolutely fine! I am very laid back and put no insistence on any particular poses to be taken. At the start of the session, one of the first things I explain is that nothing is a must, and you're more than welcome to say no to any suggestions. You're even welcome to bring your own ideas and we can try to put them into life!

Can I bring a friend for support/comfort?

Of course! I actually encourage this. Not only to help you feel safer and more comfortable, but another person there can sometimes spot little things I might miss that can help enhance the photo further.

When will the photos be ready?

Typically within 4 weeks, although it depends how busy I am with my other jobs at the time of our shoot.

Do you photograph males or couples?

At the moment, I only offer female-female couple shoots. For a few reasons. The male physique is far less forgiving, and it's much more difficult to make a sub-optimal male physique look flattering. Even with a chiselled physique, I would feel particularly inexperienced with how to pose them - I would recommend looking for a bodybuilding photographer who would likely have a much better insight for this than myself. In terms of couple shoots or duo shoots, I feel that a male-female duo shoot would be very easy to cross the line of empowering the female and into the realm of sexualising images, which is not what I'm looking to achieve. For female-female duos or couples, I think this is less of a concern.

How do I book?

If you've decided you would like to book a session, simply fill in the contact form below and I will get back to you with my availability. When we have a date and time agreed, I will send an invoice to you for payment. The session fee needs to be paid at least one week ahead of the session to cover the studio or room costs, and prevent a no-show on the day costing my business. This session fee is non-refundable unless I am unable to attend due to illness or injury on the day.
