Boudoir with nothing but a cardigan...

Of all the elaborate outfits I've photographed people wearing for boudoir and intimate portrait style pictures, my favorite is the cardigan. Cardigans are available almost anywhere, come in a variety of patterns, materials and textures, and are one of the most versatile posing props. They allow for covering as much, or as little, as you want, are a great item to occupy the hands, and take on a different look when paired with other items. A cardigan sweater is one of the top three MUST have pieces for any boudoir or intimate portrait session.
