Men love gazing at saucy photos and sexy photography is great for your sex life. Not only is it a great form of fore play, but it also fulfils porn star and glamour model fantasies. Its also the best way of attracting a new lover or tantalising an old one with a sexy snap in an email, flashing your 'come to bed eyes' and your 'come to Momma' body!

I have compiled 15 top photography tips to help you on your way...

1. You need a digital camera. There's nothing worst than having to collect your sexy photos from Boots or Jessops when you know they have had a sneaky peep at your photos. Of course you could get a Polaroid camera, but the films are costly, they shots aren't of very good quality, and if you want to email them to your lover at work you will have to buy a scanner as well. It's all much easier the other way around, and Truprint will print and post your photographs for next to nothing, and its a very speedy service with your pictures arriving within about 2 days. As a new member they will give you 10 FREE Prints, and they give you 20 FREE photos for each friend you invite to use their services.

Be aware that Truprint will not print images of legal or pornographic content. So make sure all your shots that you would like printing are erotic and sexy and not pornographic. Check out the porn laws yourself to be on the safe side but the general gist is - the actual act of sex, excited penis's and showing the inside of the vagina (although Truprint may consider a legs open and no knickers shot, an unacceptable image to print) Tasteful nude tends to be fine.

When you buy your digital camera also buy additional memory cards.
If you have a 3 megapixel camera, get at least a 256MB card, 512MBs for 4 megapixel models, and 1GB for for 6 megapixels and up.
That way you'll never miss another shot because your memory card is full.

2. You can feel a bit silly posing, trying to look sexy and having no idea of where to put your hands.

A Get some adult wank magazines. They have professionals demonstrating the sexy pose's for you. Copy the stance and positioning of the photos you like in the magazines.

B Get some props! If you are holding, leaning or have something to do with your hands you will look more natural, and wont feel uncomfortable. The props might be an everyday object, food, a sex toy, a door frame, massage baby oil into your skin.

C Play some music or have a bottle of wine to help you to relax. If you are taking the photos with your lover, you will soon stop feeling silly as they get hornier watching you posing and teasing.

3. Forget less is more, and remember more is best!
Leave something to the imagination, save all your intimate bits 'n' body parts for the passionate sex scene, don't flash them off in the snaps - this leaves nothing for the grand finale. Sexy photos are just an appetiser. A few shots of a slow sensual strip show are far more arousing than an up front and in your face view of your flange! Get your sexy undies on, or wrap yourself in a towel or some bed sheets and show little hints if flesh.

4. To create a sexy smile - never smile with your lips fully closed. Try imagining you have a pea or a two pence piece that you are holding between your lips. Also give your lips a lick before the shot to give them shine

5. Check your location. Your photographs wont turn out very sexy if unwanted mess is in the frame. Make sure that the area you are using is tidy. And where ever you are taking your pics, make sure you are not going to be disturbed - It can be very embarrassing.

6. Beware of mirrors!

A If your using a flash they can leave a white star like flash on your snap.

B Make sure the photographer can not see themselves in a mirror that in the shot.

C Be aware that they can show the back of you to camera - we don't want you getting caught with loo roll hanging out of your knickers.

7. Back lighting (having a light shine behind your subject) is flattering. It softens the outline, and makes you look slimmer.

8. Taking photos outside - a very risky business! Make sure you are not going to be disturbed or arrested!! Warm up the tones of your photo and give yourself a warm sexy glow by changing the white balance on your camera from auto to cloudy. It increases the reds and yellows resulting in a richer, warmer shot.

9. Make your legs sexier girls!

A Always point your toes even if your feet are going to be touching the ground (when sitting in a chair for example) It makes your legs look longer and more shapely.

B If your going to wear shoes wear high heels. This is because high heeled shoes instantly improve your posture and improve the shape of your legs.

C Don't just stand with your legs together like a soldier on century duty, its not doing you or the snap any favours. Instead stand with your legs a stride apart or cross one in front of the other to exaggerate the leg length.

10. Experiment with camera angles, they can add to the mood of your finished photo. Looking down on your subject makes them look very submissive; whilst having the camera look up at the subject from a lower position makes them look dominant and powerful. Also have a play with up skirt and down top shots.

11. DIY Sexy Photos. For an added surprise at work email him a 'right at this very moment' photo taken with the self timer function, this delays the firing of the shutter for up to 10 seconds. Also handy for the missing photographer syndrome.

12. If something does manage to spoil your photo remember you can always crop and change your digital images later on your computer.

13. Work it baby! Its a digital camera so it costs nothing to take hundreds of photos. You can always disregard photos you don't like later. The more different photos you take with different lighting and camera angles, the better chance you have of finding the perfect, sexiest photo.

14. Don't stand face on to the camera. Its not very interesting and its not very flattering. If you must stand face on to the camera turn slightly away to improve the shot.

15. Most importantly have fun! Because it comes across in the photograph if you are enjoying yourself or not. Your not going to turn on the viewer of the photo if you look like you have the snap taken under duress.
