It’s ok if things don’t go the way they should. It’s also ok to feel any emotions that come with those experiences. What’s not ok is to let those things take yourself away from you. It’s not ok to lose yourself and let that woman disappear. You have to remember that you’re important and that you deserve to get yourself back. That’s exactly what Ms. B’s boudoir session was all about. Read on to hear her own story about her session.

Tell us your story, a little bit about you and why you decided to do a boudoir session? Is your story what made you decide to do this for yourself?

The past 2 years have been very hard. Loss of family members, a great decline in my parents health as well as big life and work changes. There have been good moments but overall I’ve been going through the motions and battling depression while holding it together enough to care for everyone else. When the opportunity arose to do this I grabbed it. That’s one part of what I’m doing to focus on me and remind myself that I’m more than just a care taker. It’s ok for me to feel pain and fall apart too. It’s also ok to say not today and cease my moments. I am important and I will get my woman roar back!

What was your biggest concern prior to booking your Boudoir Session? How do you feel now?

The money. It was worth every penny to motivate me to feel the way I currently do.

What, specifically, did you enjoy most about your portrait session and why?

Everything. Not a single awkward moment.

Were you comfortable during your session? How did I make you feel? Did my posing instruction help you feel more confident?

Yes! Great communication. Made things that seemed a bit tricky super easy.

What did this shoot do for your self confidence, self worth, and self image? Did you discover anything about yourself that you didn’t know was there or that you forgot was there? How has your boudoir experience affected you or changed you? Tell me your story.

I feel beautiful. Seriously just took a selfie and I don’t remember the last time I was in a picture (aside from this photo shoot of course) It’s like a magical transformation of pulling the inner me out again.

Was your experience what you were expecting? If not, how was it different?

I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was nervous excited. It was super relaxing and I loved how we started with the more conservative outfit and worked to the more extreme. It was fantastic!

What advice would you give someone who is nervous about or hesitant to book their own boudoir experience with me?

Do it! You won’t regret it. Its worth every penny and moment, even with the little things you do before your session.

There you have it. That’s a little more about Ms. A’s boudoir session and how she felt about the whole process.
