It’s almost here! “50 Shades Darker”, the movie sequel to “50 Shades of Gray” (aka the book obsession of 2011).
We had a ton of influence coming into the studio based on this novel/movie. Clients where channelling their “Anastasia” and wanted to add a little spice to their images. Even what we would consider the most shyest or reserved of clients wanted subtle nods to this story, as a surprise to many of their gift receivers… and it didn’t take much. So we thought we would show you a few key pieces (all available in Canada btw) inspired from the upcoming movie, that may add a hint of “50 Shades” to your shoot.
In the trailer, Anastasia is seen wearing a blue shirt and black panties in a more relaxed at home look. We selected these panties from BLUSH (our favourite Canadian brand) because high waisted looks amazing on everyone.
Anastasia’s style is very sophisticated and clean lined, with a bit of sexiness. We love that she is wearing a deep matte red lipstick shade, much like the “Tantric” shade from Elate Cosmetics. It’s the perfect shade to wear with anything black. This deeper shade looks amazing with any skin or hair colour we think.
Last but not least, a girl has to accessorize! Adding sexy pieces to any outfit, like a pair of sparkly earrings or choker will instantly up your game. Don’t forget a mask, they are not just for halloween. Masks or ribbons to cover the eyes make a super powerful and mysteries look to the shoot. One of our favourite looks any time of year!
So grab a couple of girlfriends (or take your loved one, if they dare) and check out “50 Shades Darker”, it’s out February 10th in Canada.

“I wanted to book a session with Bella Boudoir after viewing the website and Instagram page. The photos were beautiful and tasteful. I had been thinking about doing a photo shoot for a few months but kept putting it off. I eventually built up the courage and booked with Karen. At that point, I didn’t know what to expect but knew that I was doing something completely out of my comfort zone, yet felt very excited.
Now that I’ve done the shoot, it was honestly such an amazing experience. From the moment I walked in the studio, I felt at ease and Karen made me feel very comfortable. I completely trusted the process and knew that it would be a lot of fun. I felt nervous but that didn’t last long! We had quite a few laughs throughout the session, which made it even better. I would do it all over again. My favourite part of the experience was just feeling empowered and beautiful. I had so much fun!
I absolutely loved my pictures, and felt very proud of the final product. My boyfriend loved the album that I gave him, he was very impressed! I would tell anyone considering doing a boudoir shoot to absolutely go for it. It is such an amazing experience, it pushes you outside of your comfort zone and is the best gift you can give yourself and/or your loved one.” ~ Bella B

Happy New Year from the Bella Boudoir Team!
2016 was an amazing year for us! Lots of growth and we were happy to work with many women. From some beautiful brides to be, to some beautiful women in their 50’s & 60’s celebrating health and personal milestones, we have seriously not felt more in love with what we did, then this year.
Now that Christmas has past and the surprises have been given we are thrilled to be able to start sharing some of our favourite shoots from this past year. Starting with a few words from this beauty….
“I wanted to give my husband boudoir photos as a gift. While searching for a photographer, I came across the Bella Boudoir website and knew instantly that Karen would be able to produce the sexy, yet tasteful photos I imagined giving him. Even though I was nervous, I found the entire experience comfortable and relaxed. I had a fantastic time and enjoyed every second of it. Thank you Karen!!
From Nicole making me glamorous in the hair and make-up department, to enjoying some champagne to calm the nerves, to discussing attire, to holding poses and Karen making my vision a reality, I honestly can’t pick a favourite part. I loved the entire experience! I absolutely love my photos! They are more than I could have imagined. The best part is, my husband appreciates them just as much, if not more than I do!
Definitely do it! Even if you haven’t considered giving them to someone else, do it for yourself. Thank you again for an amazing experience and beautiful photos!” ~ Bella L
