I’m trying to figure out an extra special present for my partner, and was thinking about the idea of nude pictures (or maybe bringing the camera into the bedroom), but I’m a little camera shy…what are your thoughts?

What a great idea! I personally am a huge proponent of nude photos, having had several done of myself, and realizing the amount my self esteem and confidence increased afterwards.
There are several ways to go about this. If you want to get some beautiful pictures done and give them to your partner as a gift, you have two choices; you can either go find a professional photographer who does nudes, or enlist the help of a good and artistic friend. It really depends on your budget, how comfortable you are stripping in front of a stranger, and what kind of friends you have. Either way, I’d highly suggest having them done in black and white; not only is that extremely classy looking, but everyone looks good in black and white photos; they soften everything, and make your curves look even more beautiful.
You can bring props with you; whatever makes you feel sexy, whether that is satin gloves, a sex toy, lingerie, a collar, etc. These pictures about you; do whatever you need to feel beautiful both while getting them, and then later on while looking at them. Pose in ways that feel comfortable to you…you don’t have to echo the latest Maxim or Playboy models, just do what feels right for you.
If you’re going for something a little more risqué, try taking some pictures yourself, either in the mirror, or with a camera with a timer.
If either you or a friend is doing the photos, make sure you know exactly where the negatives/digital pictures are. Delete them off your camera before going clubbing or to the church potluck, because Murphy’s Law comes into play; if you have naked pictures on your camera and are in public, someone will borrow your camera, and see them. It’s just how the world works. Trust me, I know. Bad bad bad plan.
As far as getting them printed, you might not want to go to your local grocery store or pharmacy, depending on how small your town is, or how well you know the clerks. Another option is to use the websites on the net that let you upload digital photos, and have the prints shipped to your house. A little less personal and a little more private (unless of course you live with your parents, and they sometimes open your mail. In that case, this would be a bad plan).
These basic suggestions apply for couple pictures as well. If you want some pictures of you and you lover engaged in all types of hot activities, I’d highly suggest investing in a camera with a timer, unless you just want pictures of entangled limbs. Also, a video camera can work well too; just make sure you label the tapes/dvds so that no friends, children, etc are in for a naughty surprise.
All in all, naked pictures (and movies) can certainly add a whole new dimension to your relationship, and can make you feel so much better about your body…just make sure you take a few precautions to make sure your foray into photos doesn’t cause some embarrassing situations.
