There's something incredibly empowering about seeing yourself through the lens of a trusted boudoir photographer.
We are living in a world where societal pressures have created unrealistic standard of beauty.
This unrealistic standard of beauty is constantly at the forefront of everything we see. The reality shows that are supposed to represent "real" people are full of regular folks that look like movie stars. This constant view of what "normal" is has completely changed our reality of beauty. It's not just about accepting ourselves as we are, but celebrating our uniqueness and embracing our bodies with confidence and joy. Our bodies are with us through LITERALLY everything that we do in our life time.
There is no reason that anyone should go through life hating the one thing that has been there through everything.
For you women your bodies are full of so much strength and have endured so much greatness. It is so important for us to see that real bodies are just as beautiful.
At its core, boudoir photography is so much more than just taking some sexy pictures; for your partner or yourself.
A boudoir experience is a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
It is about taking a chance and betting on yourself that you in fact can do something hard and maybe even uncomfortable.
That you can see yourself in such a beautiful light and appreciate your body for being there in all of things that you have done.
In a boudoir session, there's no need to conform to society's narrow definition of beauty.
Who the hell decided what the definition of beauty is anyway?! It's a space where you can fully embrace your authentic self. Embrace the things that make you uncomfortable. Embrace the things that push you to see yourself in a new light. There is no definition of what you should wear for your boudoir session. Want to wear a lace body suit? GREAT! Want to wear some jeans and your favorite sports bra? GREAT! Want to wear NOTHING!? GREAT! The whole point is to wear (or not wear) something that makes YOU feel comfortable and beautiful! By stepping in front of the camera and baring both your vulnerabilities and strengths, you're declaring that you are enough and you are beautiful JUST AS YOU ARE.
There's something incredibly empowering about seeing yourself through the lens of a trusted boudoir photographer.
As I guide my clients through each pose, facial expression, and set within my studio it is so beautiful to begin watching them see themselves in a whole new light. They slowly start coming out of their shell, gasping "Oh my gosh, that's really me?!", or maybe even a giggle of "Wow! I never knew I actually looked like that!". And within a few short minutes they become confident, alluring, and unapologetically themselves. This newfound confidence they have discovered doesn't just stay within the walls of the studio, it spreads into all aspects of their life, empowering them to embrace new challenges and new opportunities.
