A thousand thanks to Agent
LauraB, who has brought a whole new genre to our attention:
Boudoir bridal photography, otherwise known as pictures of the bride in her skivvies (for the family album? for the groom's private consumption? for the mother of the bride to whip out of her wallet and pass around at book group?).

Intrigued? Wondering about the next step? A casual Google turned up the following
advice from the deliciously named
Cape Fear Weddings:
Your finished boudoir portait can be turned into a gift in many ways. The most popular is the wall canvas. Add a special touch by having it hung in your honeymoon suite for your wedding night... Current software makes it economical to produce slide shows or other multi-media presentations, with music, captions, voice-overs or special effects such as fade-outs, dissolves, zoom and pan effects.
"Economical." "Slide shows". Do you suppose this means Powerpoint?
Awesome.
