Why a Boudoir Session is Great for Confidence
Did you know that the body type portrayed in advertising as the ideal body type is possessed naturally by only 5% of American females? Only FIVE PERCENT. Yep, you read that right.
I will say this over and over again - WHY do you have to be a certain size to LOVE yourself? WHY do you have to fit a strangers messed up idea of a perfect body to LOVE your own body? WHY are you comparing your size to everyone else, when really, no two women are the same?

I think it’s amazing to have goals and want to get healthy, but does that mean you have to hate your body to do those things? Absolutely NOT! You should love yourself every step of the way. Be proud of where you are so that you can be proud of where you are going. Have a boudoir session to celebrate where you are now, and then have one when you lose that 15 lbs to celebrate how far you’ve come!
Boudoir is amazing to boost your self-confidence and is quite a large stepping stone in your journey. It teaches you that even the things society has deemed as “ugly” are actually quite unique and beautiful. Our scars, our dimples, freckles, skin bumps and quirks, wrinkles… They tell a story about who we are and where we came from. They tell a story about what we've been through.

Let me ask you this… what would it mean to YOU to be able to look in the mirror and see those imperfections as beautiful rather than ugly? What would it mean to you to be able to wear that crop top and NOT GIVE A F*CK? To let go, bless, and release all of the things we have learned as young girls in this society and move forward toward our goal of loving ourselves, truly? What would it mean to look in the mirror and love yourself?
Boudoir is a way to see yourself from someone else's perspective. To see your beauty, real and raw, in photos you can hold onto as a reminder for a lifetime.
Boudoir inspires, empowers, and allows the fire within to spark yet again. Boudoir is freedom in your body. Boudoir is freedom to LOVE yourself.

These experiences can be expensive, but most of us boudoir photographers are trying to make a living, pay taxes, and not work ourselves into an early grave, ya know? But we do understand that these luxury experiences are life changing, and can really help someone’s confidence, so I offer pre-session payment plans that work within your budget, and I allow you to book a year out which my clients LOVE!
You should never tell yourself that you aren’t worth it. Your body deserves recognition, love, and appreciation. Your mind deserves reprieve, relaxation, and confidence. You deserve to feel beautiful, sexy, and empowered, in whatever way works for you. Boudoir Photography, for many women, does just that.
So, I ask, what are you waiting for?
