BouDIY® Best of 2025
{NSFW Edition}
BouDIY® Best of 2025 {NSFW Edition} is an invitation to start 2026 a little lighter — metaphorically naked, unguarded, and honest about the work we made and the artist we’re becoming.
Not to be judged.
Not to be ranked.
But to be seen — together.
This is a space to share one image from 2025 that you’re proud of. The image that represents your year, your growth, or a moment you don’t want to leave behind.
As we step into a new year, BouDIY® is bringing photographers of all experience levels side by side — creating a collective snapshot of where boudoir actually is right now: creatively, emotionally, and visually.
For many of us, that kind of shared space has been missing.
The "Best Of 2025" isn’t about perfection or polish.
It’s about presence.
When artists gather without performance or pressure, something shifts. The work starts speaking to each other. Inspiration builds. Momentum carries forward. If your work was part of 2025 — whether it stretched you, surprised you, grounded you, or reminded you why you create — this is where it belongs!
BOUDIY® BEST OF 2025 PRIZES
This is your moment to have your work recognized, not because it checked boxes — but because it stood out. These awards celebrate images that feel intentional, confident, and unmistakably yours.
GRAND PRIZE: Nudescapes®
Nudescapes® is one of BouDIY®’s most-loved trainings, known for helping photographers create work that stands out as art. It builds the kind of skill and confidence that changes how your work is seen — and valued. ($799 Value)
CREATIVE STANDOUT AWARD
(2 recipients)
$250 BouDIY® Store Credit for imagery that feels expressive, thoughtful, and genuinely enjoyable to create — where the artist’s voice comes through clearly.
ARTIST SPOTLIGHT
All selected entries will be invited to be featured on the BouDIY® Blog as part of our Best of BouDIY® celebration — recognizing work that stands out creatively and deserves to be seen and celebrated.
IMPORTANT: If you buy Nudescapes® during the Annual Nudescapes® sale and later win the Grand Prize, your prize automatically upgrades — you’ll be able to choose ANY BouDIY® product instead, including higher-value options so there is no downside to purchasing early!
Participation in BouDIY® Best of 2025 {NSFW Edition} is intentionally simple and open to all skill levels.
Because this challenge includes NSFW work, it’s being hosted inside the NSFW Edition of the Hub — a space where images don’t have to be cropped, censored, blurred, or tip-toed around just to exist online. The BouDIY® Community Hub is a new, free platform that I created for BouDIY® photographers to share work, connect, and participate in things like this without the limitations and weird rules of social media.
One of the things that inspired this challenge was finally having a place where we could fully see each other’s work the way it’s meant to be seen. Uncensored images. Real art. No dancing around restrictions. Seeing everyone’s work side by side in that space honestly just hits different — and that’s what sparked Best of BouDIY®.
And BTW this isn’t a one-and-done thing. The Community Hub & {NSFW Edition} space stays open after the challenge ends for continued sharing, future challenges, and creative fun!
We’re just getting started with what’s going to live there.
Step 1: Join the BouDIY® Community Hub
Because this challenge includes NSFW artwork, it will be hosted inside the NSFW Edition space of the BouDIY® Community Hub.
