Do you shoot lingerie?

 "Do you shoot lingerie?" I got asked this question this morning. It's a common question. My stock answer is no, I don't do normal lingerie sessions--no bra and panty pics, etc. "Boudoir" has become a big trend with some fine photographers doing it and a lot of people shooting it who give photographers a bad name. I want to stay away from that and make sure that people don't lump me in with that crowd. HOWEVER, I'm totally fine shooting photos that let women express their femininity and show off a bit--just in a classic, classy way.

Cynthia from Cincinnati's Classic Beauty Project photo session.

 Muskopf Photography, LLC is based in Beavercreek, near Dayton, Ohio.  Most of my clients actually come from Cincinnati, Columbus, or even farther.  Such was the case with Cynthia who drove from Cincinnati.  She loved the classic Old Hollywood looks that I do with many Classic Beauty Project sessions as well as doing some sexier shots similar to what boudoir photographers do.  I do it all, because if you look at the classic shots of Jean Harlow, Carole Lombard, Rita Hayworth, Jane Russell, etc., that's exactly where boudoir photos began.  My photos can be just as sexy as boudoir, but you don't have to be prancing around in your underwear. :)

Julia

 This week, my studio was graced by the lovely Julia who began life in Ukraine, traveled the world, and ended up in Ohio.  

Hanna came by...all the way from Kansas!!!

Hanna is a beautiful young woman that I've known since she was around 10 years old.  It's so nice to see how she's grown! :) I was happy to have her participate in The Classic Beauty Project.
