Have you ever wondered who created Boudoir Photography? The art of Boudoir Photography is credited to starting with one guy, Albert Arthur Allen. 

Let's dig into Allen.

Allen was born to a wealthy New England family in 1886, and was educated in Boston. At the age of twenty-one, he moved to California and spent years traveling and studying art. In 1916, he opened the Allen Art Studios in Oakland, California, where he devoted his efforts to refining photographic techniques. The studio later became known as the Allen Institute of Fine and Applied Art.
