Taking sexy photos

One thing I forgot to mention before: Your SO will probably very much appreciate you wanting to do this even if the end results don't match your expectations. They will feel very good just in knowing that you wanted to do this for them.
 
One of the sexiest phone pics I've ever taken, I was laying on my bed, nude, knees up and slightly spread, back arched (accentuates the waist) one hand covering my crotch, and the other snapped the photo from just above my viewpoint. I had soft lighting from just a lamp. My face wasn't in it, careful with that. It was basically my belly button to upper thighs (you can arch that whole area a bit for a slimming effect)
Nothing showed but it looked quite risqué.

Self-photography is really tough. We are all our own worst critic. Here's a little idea that might help you ease into the more erotic shots:

Pick out one of your favorite hot outfits and take a picture. Then, one at time, take something off and take the next picture. Not only will you get more comfortable with the "barere" photos, but you can send him the pics one a time. He will really look forward to each day's mail!!! Also, black and white is really sexy, and hides alot of litte issues!! I spend time on TUMBLR, and love the erotic b/w photo art.
 
OK, it's been over 24 hrs and no one has commented on your photos, so I'll give it a shot.

Those photos don't strike me as sexy at all.

The shirt thing that you're wearing looks like something that you could wear out on the town. With the shirt on, I don't get the cropping that you did. Why don't you just take a photo of yourself wearing the shirt.

The cropping would make sense without the shirt. Two of the photos could be taken w/o the shirt as they are cropped. For the other photo, you might want to crop it an inch or so higher if you want to crop out your nipple.

The hat doesn't do anything for me, but I don't know you. If your husband has a hat fetish or something, it might work for him. Also, the hat might work without the shirt. (That would actually be perfect. The things that are dangling could cover your nipples.)

In case I'm not making myself clear, for most guys, sexy = skin. As much skin as possible.

I'm not trying to be negative or mean to you. I even waited 24 hrs before posting hoping to see what others had to say. This is a pretty active forum. It's not normal for a post to go 24 hrs w/o some kind of comment.

If I was out of town, and my wife sent me some photos of herself fully dressed with her face cropped out of the photo, I'd wonder what the heck she was doing.

I'm guessing that you're trying to leave something to the imagination or something, but it's not working.

It's possible that you're thinking like a girl and not trying to think of what a guy thinks it sexy. For example, find a magazine that has done a story on the sexiest man alive. It's someone like George Clooney or Richard Gere. He's 50. He has a head of gray hair. He's fully dressed in every photo. Women seem to love that. Now find a magazine with a story on the sexiest woman alive. She's 20. She has youthful hair. She's as naked as possible in every photo. Guys love that.

You need to start thinking like a guy.
 
Here's one of mine...

Just running her through the paces and came up with this.
 
Its actually a bra. And I cut my face out for the form use (not for him (; I would just die if someone recognized me on here haha) The hat was a gift from him a while back and has quite the memories in it! The original idea was to cover my nipples with the tassels but it just wasnt working right. Blah. (eta: I do suspect he has a bit of a hat fetish. hehe)

I appreciate the feedback! ^-^ Im just soooooo new at this since this is the first time we have really been apart for a good bit of time since we first got together so there was never a real need to take anything sexy for each other (he's pretty awful at it to tell you the truth!!) since we were right there whenever we wanted a nice eyefull. I'm very critical of myself in photos as I just nitpick at every flaw or odd bump and delete it thinking "that is NOT sexy!" Like you said, the "sexy" woman is seen as young thin and nimble and scantly clad. I just dont seem to fit the mind's eye of sexy so its REALLY hard to accept something that is quite opposite. Its all in my head ;) Youre right. I do think too much like a woman!

I actually have an attempted pose like that in my scraps...It just seemed like such an odd pose that I wouldnt think SO/anyone would really find it that appealing. But I guess I shall be digging it up :)
 
Photography is all about light....forget flash and try to get natural light..by a window..or through sheer curtains for a soft look!..

I hate using flash. Bleaches me out and flattens it. Blah. And lol window ;) give the nosey neighbors a show!!
 
Out of ten girls in a room, who is the sexiest one? The one with the least clothes on.

While that's not always true, it certainly will be for your husband. He is going to appreciate your naked pics, trust me. If he doesn't then we will. :) He married you because he found you sexy (among whatever other reasons as well). Just the thought of you doing something like this for him would be a huge turn on.

And I looked at the pic that you posted. You kept complaining about baby fat and all that but you look great. You have nothing to worry about. The way you talked I was expecting the unthinkable. If he shows his friends your pics, no one is going to be making fun of him. Promise.
