LaFluer's wife apparently appreciated the effort.
"She loves every single one that she's gotten. It turned out so much better than what I thought it was going to be. We just had so much fun with it," said LaFluer.

"No," one woman said.
"Oh no," another woman said as she laughed. "Is that actually a construction site?"

LaFluer calls it "Dudeoir," a twist on boudoir photography that traditionally has a wife taking photos as a present to her husband.
