Here is a sneak peek for Kirsten following her boudoir shoot at the City Garden in Zug last week - we started off the shoot by photographing in the lobby area of the hotel as Kirsten had brought several dresses with her too. We then went up to the junior suite and changed Kirsten's look a few times for the rest of the shoot.

I recently worked together with journalist Tsitaliya Mircheva-Petrova on a feature article for the Christmas season for www.zurich4you.ch. We got together to photograph several outfits from designers featured at Jelmoli in Zurich. Some of the images from the shoot can be seen here. The shoot took place in an apartment in Zug and the images below are some of my personal favourites from the day.

Earlier this year, I donated a portrait shoot to the International School of Zug and Luzern's masked ball and Evangelina and Rafael bid for it in the silent auction and won! We scheduled our shoot a few weeks ago when all the family were in Switzerland together and here are some images for them to peek at before our viewing next week!
Had to leave this one in... hope you don't mind guys - it just makes me laugh!

A few weeks ago, I did a corporate portrait shoot for the ExCo members of BAT. The shoot took place at their offices in Zug and we also went outdoors briefly at one point for some extra shots.
One of my more popular packages is the one-hour corporate website session in which a number of styles can be covered - these shoots are ideal for refreshing CVs too and can easily be done in a lunch-hour or directly after work. Just before Easter, I had a session with Ann Söderblom from Zurich who will soon be launching a new business. Ann had told me a little about her new business beforehand and so I knew that the grafitti wall I had in mind and have been wanting to use for a while now would be ideal for this shoot. We started off with Ann dressed in a shirt and jacket, changing along the way into more casual attire and ended up at the wall by the train station in Zug. Here are some of the images, and more information on corporate website session shoots can be found here.
We both really loved the contemporary green of the buildings and the natural ones of the plants in these
More mixing of urban and nature
As many of you know, I regularly write for the parenting magazine "The New Stork Times." Last month, I did a feature on Boudoir Photography - you can read more about it below (double click to enlarge).
Here are some shots from a recent boudoir shoot at the City Garden in Zug. Daniela really wanted to showcase many of the dresses she doesn't always get to wear so it became more of a fashion shoot on location. Make up by Tala von Daniken Berger.
Well, it really does look like Spring has sprung - now if we can just have this weather until Autumn...
Mother's Day in Switzerland is Sunday 8 May and what better way to celebrate motherhood than commissioning a portrait shoot - whether for the family or just for mum herself. If you would like to purchase a gift voucher, please email me on info@andaleeblilley.ch for more details.
Meanwhile Tala and I celebrated her impending motherhood a few weeks ago in Zurich - we went to a small park just behind her home and it really was what Tala had called it - a "secret garden". Enjoy some of the images from our shoot together ... and of course the sun!
I have teamed up with make up artist Tala von Däniken Berger of Perfect Packages to offer a fun mini makeover and boudoir session on Saturday 26 March 2011. The sessions will take place at the City Garden in Zug and include the following inclusive package:
A 20 minute makeover, glass of champagne, photography shoot with 2 outfit changes, 2 prints sized at 13 x 18 (or 50 CHF toward other photographic products) and a complimentary gift bag) for just CHF350. More images can also be purchased after the shoot (and all images will be edited and processed and uploaded on a password-protected gallery after the shoot). Sessions will last for just over an hour.
Boudoir is the french word for a "lady's bedroom" or "dressing room". Boudoir photography is creating a set of images, in a studio or in a luxury hotel, of women in evening wear or in lingerie.
Boudoir is not just images in lingerie however, it is also images of women in gorgeous evening dresses, men's shirts and even football shirts as well as close-ups and detailed shots too.
Bridal boudoir photography is also very popular nowadays with brides-to-be selecting a collection of images for a discreet album made as a present for their fiances - it is certainly a unique gift! Other common themes for women deciding to have a boudoir shoot are for anniversaries, to celebrate Mother's or Valentine's Day or for those in long-distance relationships.
This is a great way of trying out a boudoir shoot if you have been thinking about booking one but want a shorter session. Please email me at info@andaleeblilley.ch for more details.
Here are some images from previous boudoir shoots to whet your appetite ... and a big thank you to all these women for allowing me to showcase some of their images.
Valentine's Day will soon be upon us (ok, its a month away) and an unusual gift for a daughter/son, couple or partner is a couples shoot together. This shoot took place in September last year in the old town of Zug on a very warm day. We did clothing changes on route (I always find somewhere to change...) and used various backgrounds in Zug for the shoot starting off in a cafe, stopping to do some window shopping and then going down to the lake via some grafitti. These shoots can take place anywhere which is special to you as a couple and there is no age limit!
I have a special promotion on for this shoot experience at the moment - if you book or purchase a voucher as a gift for a Valentines Shoot, you will receive a complimentary 60 x 40 aluminium-mounted print (worth CHF 225). Enjoy!
So, here are some shots of the Harley shoot I mentioned in my last post. I got Nina to ride up and down for a while then posed her around the bike or just took some of her relaxing and chatting to her daughters. It did make me want one too...
Hier sind nun ein paar Aufnahmen von Nina mit ihrer Harley-Davidson, die ich in meinem letzten Posting angekündigt habe. Zuerst ließ ich Nina eine Weile lang mit dem Motorrad auf- und abfahren. Danach machten wir einige Aufnahmen von ihr neben dem Motorrad und zum Schluss fotografierte ich sie noch, während sie ganz entspannt mit ihren Töchtern plauderte. Seitdem wünsche ich mir auch eine Harley...
... watch out for Heather! Here's a sneak preview of Heather and our shoot in Zurich a few weeks ago. We started off in Heather's flat and then walked into the forest just minutes from her house where she did a quick change in the woods! I don't think Heather realised our shoot would include her climbing up tree stumps, playing on a swing and me photographing all her lovely things in her bedroom! Am looking forward to showing her the rest tomorrow.
Heute gibt es einige Bilder von Heather, die vor ein paar Wochen bei unserem Shooting in Zürich entstanden sind. Wir haben in Heathers Wohnung angefangen und sind dann in den Wald gegangen, der nur ein paar Minuten von ihrem Haus entfernt ist. Wahrscheinlich hätte Heather sich nicht träumen lassen, dass sie bei dem Shooting auf Baumstümpfe klettern und auf einer Schaukel spielen würde, und auch nicht, dass ich all die hübschen Dinge in ihrem Schlafzimmer fotografieren würde. Ich freue mich schon darauf, ihr morgen die restlichen Aufnahmen zu zeigen.
