This week we photographed the lovely 39 year old, mother of 3, Lesley who had always wanted to do a glamour boudoir session but had never had the courage or confidence.

This is what Lesley had to say about the session with us.

“I had the most amazing experience last Friday and was treated so beautifully by the amazing Dean and Karen Agar… I’ve always wanted to have photos like these taken but for what ever reason, to scared, not pretty enough, not brave enough I’ve never done it… An opportunity to give it a go came by and wow, what an incredibly empowering experience. From the time I entered their work space I was at ease, I was made up to look stunning by an amazing makeup artist, it was truly one of the best things I’ve ever done and I’m so thrilled with the results… so proud.“

If you would like information on a session with us please contact Karen on 0402 230 669 or email on this link and I will be back to you within 24hrs with pricing.

Push yourself out of your comfort zone and rediscover that sexy confident woman again.

51 year old ballet teacher Jenny, chose us for a life changing experience. She has wanted to do a boudoir & artistic nude photography session for a while and after seeing a post on Facebook of one of my own artistic nude images, she decided that we were the photographers who would be able to give her the experience and photographs she dreamed of. We are so glad that she chose us as, not only is Jenny an amazing person, she is an amazing dancer and a natural beauty, and we had an absolutely wonderful time photographing her.

We are so pleased with the image results and we know that Jenny is extremely happy which is the most important thing. It is very special for us to be involved in these life changing events for women. To be trusted to take these intimate images for women who are stepping very very far from their comfort zone and to have them have so much faith and confidence that we can deliver what they want, and images that will make them very happy. Dean and I love this part of our business.

Whether you are wanting an artistic nude session or glamour/boudoir, you can trust us to give you the most amazing experience and deliver images that you will absolutely love.

Here is what Jenny had to say about her session with us.

“I am still living my experience as my pictures start to surface after the incredible day we had taking them. I’m quite overwhelmed at how my expectations were exceeded …. at how relaxed I was through the whole experience… and at how much faith and trust I felt I could reliably place in Dean and Karen.

At 51 years this was a personal great moment for me…. I felt incredible and I have superb artistic photos that I will treasure. I’m a happy girl.”

Amber came to us this week for a nude and boudoir photography session. We had a wonderful time photographing Amber and were able to combine some dark studio images with some beautiful soft natural light images. We finished with a lovely mix of natural nude and boudoir photographs. We would love to thank Amber for choosing us for her boudoir photography session and for allowing us to use the images here on our site.

Many ladies come to us for a boudoir photography session with a feeling that they would love to add some nude or implied nude images but they are just not sure if they will be brave enough. Once they have met us and have had their hair and makeup done, they have lost a lot of their nerves and they will make the decision to go for it. They know that if they leave the studio without having given it a go, they will regret it. Not one lady has ever regretting having put herself out of her comfort zone for some nude images. Not one. In fact most ladies express how ’empowering’ the experience was, even the ladies that were a bundle of nerves when they arrived.

Naomi had been wanting to have a stunning nude and boudoir photography session for a few years and she decided that she would take a deep breath and take the plunge. Naomi’s husband was very interested in the process and so he came along to watch and he seemed to enjoy the process as much as Naomi did.

Our photography sessions for women all include a beautiful makeover (hair and makeup) and you may choose any style of photography or mix the styles in your session. Many ladies choose to include a few art nude or implied nude images into their boudoir photography session. It is completely your choice and entirely up to your comfort level. We know how to pose all body shapes and are very experienced with posing all sizes and ages for the very best results possible.

We offer both digital and print packages and we can also offer stunning wall art pieces to display your beautiful images. Your digital files are supplied in several colour variations including colour and black & white and digital files are included with all of our print packages.

If you would like information on a photography session tailored especially to you please contact Karen on 0402 230 669 or email on this link.

The beautiful Saow has been wanting to have a glamour, nude and boudoir photography session for the past few years and since she discovered our site earlier this year, she decided to take a breath and book. We photograph many styles of photography in both flash and natural light so it was very easy for Saow to have exactly the images she had been wanting. She chose a mix of light and dark images and a mix of glamour, boudoir and nude for a great folio of varied photographs.

We all had a lot of fun and really enjoyed chatting to Saow during our time together. We know that she will look back upon her images for a very long time and feel proud of what she achieved on the day with us.

Dean and I have a lot of experience photographing women of all ages, shapes and sizes. We know how to pose women to hide the parts they don’t like and to accentuate their assets. We will always aim for the very best results in camera with the right posing but we can also tweak an image when needed in photoshop. We can also fix skin imperfections and stretch marks in photoshop if needed. You will view your images right after your session so you do not have to make time from your busy schedule to return for a viewing.

Allisha’s partner purchased her a gift voucher for her last birthday and it was up to her to choose the style of images when wanted. She decided upon a nude photography session with a mix of light and dark style images. Our natural light studio has the most beautiful soft light during the day and it is perfect for that soft romantic look that women love.

This is what Allisha had to say about her session with us.

“Hi Karen,

Both Tom & I are very happy with the final pictures and I was very happy with the whole experience from start to finish. I am surprised with how many people I have shown them to, a few ladies at work, my family & friends. I even showed my Mum who was chuffed with them.

Of course I have been highly recommending you and have already given away the business cards I left with. 

 I felt quite comfortable doing the nude shoots and would happily do it again.  

Will definitely be using you guys again and I would hope that you could be there for significant moments later in life. “

Nude photography – Why shoot nude?

If you tell a friend that you are wanting a nude photography session you will get one of two replies. . . . .

“Oh my god, why on earth would you want to do that? I could never be nude in front of strangers.” OR “Wow, I have always wanted to do that but have just been too scared. Good on you. You’ll have to let me know what it was like.”

It is quite strange how differently people feel about being nude, or being photographed nude. We have found though that a lot of people don’t have an issue so much with nudity as long as they look good. They have so little self confidence that they can’t imagine looking good out of clothing.

A large percentage of our clients come to us for a glamour or boudoir session with the thought that they would love to do some nude, either implied, artistic or what we would call “glamour nude”, if they could muster up the courage. They arrive very nervous, saying that if they feel brave enough they would love to have a few nude images. After meeting Dean and I and relaxing through 60 – 90 mins of hair and makeup they have calmed down and are ready to enter the nude studio. They usually have a thought in their mind that they will work up to the nude. They decide they will shoot the clothed or lingerie images first and when they feel confident they will go to the nude. I then have to tell them that we do the nude first, so after they pick themselves up off of the floor I tell them the two reasons.

1. We can’t have any marks on the body for nude which is why I will ask you to arrive without a bra and with loose comfy clothing. If we shoot clothing first there will be marks.

2. If you have in your mind that the nude is coming then it will show in your face through the first part of the session. You will be thinking about it constantly. When it is done first, it is out of the way and once in lingerie you are feeling overdressed and very proud of yourself that you did the nude & lived to tell.

Our clients are usually feeling pretty relaxed within 10 minutes and forget that they are naked. Dean and I are so engrossed in the lighting and posing, and the client is focusing so hard on holding the pose, that they forget the nerves and get involved in the session. Having our beautiful “Sammie” the Samoyed in the studio during the session also gives the clients something to look at and they all say she helped them to relax, especially when she starts to snore. When the client views the first image on the back of the camera, and they see how great they look, any remaining nerves fall away. We find that people are not so scared about being naked as much as they are scared of looking bad in the photo.

Remember that all of the final chosen images for purchase are beautifully edited and finished in photoshop. We can do a certain amount of body trimming and can remove most stretch marks and scars as well as lift breasts if needed. We do not go overboard on this as nobody wants an image that does not look like them and we have all seen the horrors of the over airbrushed glamour image.

Reasons to shoot nude:

Memories – what better way to remember how you looked at this point 20 or 30 years from now, than tasteful nude images.

Gift – nude images make an amazing gift for your partner.

Pregnancy – what better way to remember your beautiful baby bump than to shoot nude. It celebrates all that is beautiful about being a woman.

Comfort Zone – many ladies will shoot nude just to be pushed out of their comfort zone. It is way easier and safer than a bungy jump

Confidence – most of us lack confidence in our bodies. We can show you how, when in the right light and with the right posing,  just how fantastic you really are. You will learn to love your body once again.

Celebration – many ladies shoot nude after reaching a milestone of weight loss.

Different styles of nude photography:

Artistic nude is photographed in our dark studio. We sculpt the body with the use of light and posing techniques. These images are often produced as black & white or sepia tones and suit men, women and couples. The use of light and shade will trim the body and posing techniques will trim and tighten where needed. We can also trim a little more in photoshop for those problem areas. Stretch marks and scars can be removed in most cases and breasts lifted if needed.

Implied nude: can be photographed in our dark studio, our daylight studio or our boudoir room. It is simply a nude image where breasts and/or pubic area is covered by fabrics, props, other body parts or by your partner. You will need to be nude in most cases for this as we do not want sides of underwear or bras to be seen in the final image.

Glamour nude: is usually photographed in our daylight studio and is very soft and feminine. We use natural light and the room is decorated in white & floral. These images can be fully nude or implied nude.

Seductive couples: Our daylight studio can be changed into dark sultry colours with furs & fabrics, and with the use of flash lighting can become a seductive boudoir set for couples and singles. This can be fully nude or implied.

Our nude photography packages will begin with a beautiful makeover, followed by a 1 – 2hr photography session with complete guidance with your posing and styling. You can choose from mounted photos, folio box, albums, coffee table books and wall art, all of which will come with the digital versions of each print, or you may choose a digital only package.

For more information on a session with us please call Karen on 0402 230 669 or email karen@deanagar.com.au.

Natasha asked us to push her out of her comfort zone today and include some beautiful nude photography images along with the boudoir and glamour that she originally came here for. She was so happy that she did them and loves the results. The images are a birthday present for her boyfriend and we are sure he will love them.

We have a lot of ladies come in to us for a glamour or boudoir session. While they are in the makeup chair they look at a large TV screen which scrolls a selection of our work. They will often see our beautiful and tasteful nude photography and express an interest in doing some of that themselves. They are usually quite scared but they will always decide that they have made the step to come along so they might as well take a deep breath and do the nude images. They never, ever regret that decision. Our nude photography is done in either our dark studio for the moody dark images, or our natural light studio for the brighter images such as you see above.

The big question which is asked when shooting nude photography is “can we fix stretch marks and do a little thinning where needed?” The answer is yes, so if you are coming in for a session with us and you think you might like to get brave enough to include some nude, don’t fret it, it’s easy really.

Erinlee & Dom came to us for a romantic and sexy couples photography session. We included a mix of dramatic flash lighting setups and softer natural light setups.

Most couples will include a few images “for her” which are really “for him” and we captured some beautiful images of Erinlee.

Your couples photography session can be sexy, fun, romantic or erotic. It is completely up to your comfort level and what you wish to achieve. We photograph in both natural light and with flash so we can cover both the light style and the dark, dramatic style of image for you. Many couples will have a little of each in their session for a wonderful variety of images. Your couples photography session can be nude, in underwear, fully clothed or a bit of each.  Once again, that is entirely up to you. We will pose and style you to suit your body types so that we achieve the very best image for each of you. We will also be sure to capture some special images of each of you separately.

Here is a link to our gallery page.

Helen came to us this week for a glamour boudoir photography session and also added in a few artistic nude images. She was accompanied by her good friend Kristine, who had her own glamour boudoir photography session with us a few weeks ago. Helen was fantastic to photograph and we all had a great time during the session, proving once again, that you do not have to be under 30 to have stunning results in a glamour boudoir photography session.

Dean Agar is a Brisbane photographer, based in Tanah Merah (20 mins south of Brisbane). He has been photographing women along with myself (wife Karen), for the past 8 years and has built up a loyal following from around Australia and overseas.

We decided that we would love to video one of our sessions so that you can experience a session with us in the comfort of your own home, and to decide if it is right for you. Felicity was kind enough to give us permission to video her glamour, nude & boudoir session and she was amazingly patient during the entire process as it takes twice as long to video and shoot a session and she had to hold poses and maintain her happy face for longer than usual. She most certainly did not let us down.

Carla Sakrzewski is our very talented makeup artist. Dean photographed and filmed the session (not an easy task) and I styled and assisted. Thank you so much to Felicity for being so patient and just amazing during the session.

We started in our natural light studio for some implied nude, boudoir and glamour/portraiture and then we went into our dark studio for our dark nude and fashion/glamour. We hope you love it.

We have 3 studio spaces to suit our different styles of photography and each space is private and heated/cooled for your comfort. We will style and pose you specifically for your body type. We realise that you will be extremely nervous but that usually lasts for only the first 10 minutes or so. You will very quickly gain confidence with us and you will relax and feel comfortable, even during an artistic nude session. Once you see your images you will feel very proud of your achievements and many women tell us that they feel very ’empowered’ after their session.

You are welcome to mix in some portraits or vintage style images for a great variety of results in your session.

Jasmine had been searching for a Brisbane photographer for her glamour and artistic nude photography session. She wanted the images as a gift to her husband and she chose us as she loved our work. We had a lot of fun with this session and hope you enjoy the images that we have posted here.

We are a south Brisbane photographer with a studio in Tanah Merah which is only 20 mins south of the city or 40 mins north of the Gold Coast. It is an easy trip on the Logan motorway from Ipswich and only 20 mins from Redlands.

We have many ladies tell us that they are still ‘buzzing’ days and weeks after their session and that the experience is often a very liberating one. The photographs will often become secondary to the feeling that the ladies get from actually doing the session.
