Denver, Colorado Boudoir Photographer: The Influence of Burlesque

On Saturday some of my girlfriends and I went to see Burlesque. I have been amped up about this since I saw the preview back in September. I LOVE Christina Aguilera (most of the time anyway...the brunette dreads were a mistake). I think she is beautiful and her voice gives me goosebumps. Her appearance put together with a 64-year-old Cher sporting a super high cut leotard, a soundtrack to die for and a super hottie named Jack (Famous Amos anyone?) puts this movie in my top 5 favorites.

The best part of it for me as a boudoir photographer was the costume/ makeup aspect of it. AMAZING. The outfit made of pearls? HELLO! I've found some photos of my favorite looks from the movie below. It inspired me so much and I hope a lovely lady will come in soon and say "Burlesque me!" I know my makeup artist could do any of the following looks and the shoot would be stunning...c'mon ladies, what're you waiting for? SHOW ME HOW YOU BURLESQUE!!!

 Love the tights! And I loved her short wig.

This is the pearl outfit...it was killer. Whoever made it should get an award.

This was a classy, beautiful look and a very lovely song too. I loved the lighting of this whole scene.

Insane false lashes. This was a great scene too.

Oh...oops...how did HE get in here? ;)
