Boudoir is a very intimate experience, and it can be intimidating. Trust me, I get it. Before I decided to add boudoir as a service for my wonderful clients, I thought long and hard about it. I thought of all the reasons I wouldn’t want to do one myself. “I don’t want to get undressed in front of a stranger.” “I need to hit the gym first, I’m too weak.” “I don’t really have any assets to show off.” “I have too much acne.” “I’m too pale.” I’m too this.” “I’m not enough that.” 

The list could go on, and on, and on. But then I realized that most women would probably respond this way, too. I realized that I was looking at it all wrong. Boudoir isn’t about making you feel self conscious and not good enough. It’s about empowering you, making you feel strong, and beautiful, and confident, exactly as you are. 

So why WOULD you want to do a boudoir photo shoot? Here are my top 5 reasons.

1) It’s Empowering

You are incredible, you are vivacious, and you are beautiful. These images hold so much power. We all have hangups, and insecurities, and things we don’t like about ourselves. But when you allow yourself to step out of your comfort zone, you grow. Allow yourself to feel beautiful exactly as you are. Allow yourself to be loved on and pampered for a day, and when you see these images, you will be blown away. You’ll see the beauty that everyone else sees, and when you look back on them 10, 20, even 50 years down the road, you’ll be reminded of just how stunning and confident you really are.

2) It’s an Excuse to Buy New Lingerie!

We’ve all seen that adorable lingerie set but didn’t buy it because there was no real reason to. Here’s your reason! Take a day with your girls to go pick out the perfect set!

Maybe lingerie isn’t your thing. That’s okay too! your favorite PJ set, your husband’s oversized t-shirt, a silky robe, anything goes! It’s whatever makes you feel your very best!

3) You’re Getting Married!

If you’re getting married, this is the perfect little surprise for your hubby-to-be. This is the man who sees you at your highest highs and your lowest lows. He’s the one who loves you and chooses you and thinks you are beautiful, no matter what. Create a little keepsake for him, and give it to him the morning of your wedding. His reaction will be priceless, and it’s something that he will cherish forever!
