About Your Portrait Sitting

Joseph Sargent has been photographing boudoir portraits since 1989 and is recognized as one of the premier boudoir photographers in the country. Whether you are looking for a softly suggestive or excitingly erotic portrait, Joseph combines experienced professional confidence with a reassuring personal style to assure a wonderful photo session experience. He has developed the ability to combine his eye for lighting and composition with your personal style to create an image that is an expression of the beauty that is uniquely yours. 

There are many reasons why you may consider a boudoir portrait session: a romantic celebration of an anniversary, a wedding gift for your fiancée, a surprise Birthday or Valentine’s Day present he’ll never forget, or maybe to congratulate yourself for a weight-loss victory. But most of all, to say I love you by celebrating yourself. Celebrating yourself, for any occasion and for any reason, will create that unique expression of beauty that is yours alone.   

Preparing for the photo session gives you the opportunity to indulge yourself! Bring a selection of outfits to reflect the different moods you’d like to capture, from demure to playful to seductive. Choose colors that are best for you, but that are not too similar to your skin tone. Colors that work well with our lighting style are white, red, gold, turquoise, and some black. Be sure to include jewelry—pearls are gorgeous in photos, while diamonds and silver or gold add a beautiful glow. You can have fun incorporating some items to personalize the image for your man (a tool belt, his white shirt and tie, his team t-shirt), or you may have some other items that have more personal meaning to you. 

 But most of all, bring your inner self…Joseph’s primary focus is to bring out the beauty that a woman carries within her, and he has an amazing gift for getting in touch with that quality and capturing it’s essence in his images! 

Your Phoenix Studios boudoir photo session will last about three hours. Joseph’s associate, Elvira, will assist you throughout the photo session. She has an eye for detail, co-ordination, and style that blend with Joseph’s talents to assure an image of perfection!  We create up to thirty images for you to choose from, which will be ready for you to view a week later in a slide presentation
