Hobby Shoot
If your boyfriend has a hobby such as playing an instrument or cooking, incorporate this fun idea into the photoshoot. It represents his hobbies and gives the photos a sense of character.
Classy and Vintage
A chic vintage style that you can wear with a tie or even just casually glam. Your subject will remain your focus in this shot if you use a simple background (e.g.: brick wall, out of focus cityscape).
Outdoors Themes
Hiking in the Mountains: Take pictures of your boyfriend hiking a mountain and document his adventurous side. Those jagged hillsides and picturesquely scary horizons make an awe-inspiring canvas on which to show the daredevil outdoorsier in him!
Beach Day: Be it relaxation & fun, nothing says it better than a day at the beach. Take candid shots of him running through waves, playing in the sand or just relaxing under a beach umbrella.
Into the Woods… Forest Exploration
Bring your boyfriend to the forest and capture moments of him immersed in nature – traipsing through it, climbing trees, discovering a new path. It places your outdoorsman boyfriend front and center with custom shots of him setting up a tent, grilling over an open flame or just living his best life in nature. There is a lot of natural lighting and the surroundings help to give that extra touch.
Urban Jungle: Alternatively, for a more up-to-date escapade shot of your much better half proving the urban jungle. From street art, quirky cafes and the urban essence of a bustling modern city, this provides an interesting mix of colours for him to shoot against.
Feel The Heat With His Work
If we talk about gym working, you will feel the fire and passion of your man. It just proves you that he is all-in when it comes to fitness, be it bodybuilding workouts, running or a HIIT. We may see him playing hoops, bouncing away or going up for a dunk showing off the athleticism and just that this dude loves hooping.

Read A Book
I find it absolutely irresistibly sexy when a man is entranced by some great piece of literature. Snap a couple of shots for him in his favorite reading location (between the sheets, on his lounging couch or at the cafe nearby…)
Cooking Together
Oh the joy of cooking a meal together. Maybe it is of him cutting some veggies, stirring a pot or even plating his beautifully cooked meal. Kitchens are known to be a great place for real moments. It reflects just how he behaves when lounging in his off time, whether it be with a dog or on the couch.

Business Meeting
Your boyfriend in a business meeting landscape. Some friends or co-workers can easily stage such an environment. You just have to watch how he behaves in his “problem-solving” mode

If your boyfriend painted the picture from the previous painting session, challenge him to paint that same painting again. Meanwhile, if not, then challenge him to create a canvas and brush image while posing with money. This is where you can let your crafty freak flag fly!
