Orthodox Jewish women pose in racy, nearly-naked photos to celebrate their 'unique beauty' - and have the approval of a Rabbi who says it's totally kosher

Lea, a 30-year-old photographer from New York, told Daily Mail Online that the shoots celebrate women

She charges around $1,000 for the smoldering pictures

Most of her clients are married, and many are mothers and even grandmothers

One rabbi said that the shoots are 'kosher' but should be kept between a husband and wife 

Like many conservative religious sects, the Orthodox Jewish community prizes modesty, especially among its women - which is why it's so surprising that more and more of these women are willing to strip down on camera.
The New York Post reports that boudoir shoots - a trend that sees women taking sexy, revealing photos, often in nighties and lingerie - are becoming increasingly popular among Orthodox Jews, with even some bubbes - or grandmothers - taking part.

Lea, 30, a New York City-based photographer who is also an Orthodox Jew, said that these types of shoots done for members of Flatbush, Brooklyn's Hasidic community now make up about 35 per cent of her business.
