It’s 2019 and feminine power is on the rise! Women are becoming more liberated and empowered than ever before. So why not celebrate your womanhood and book a boudoir shoot… it may just change your life!
I’ve heard all the excuses women make as for why they can’t do a boudoir shoot. I bet if I asked a lot of women they would say saying something like… “I need to lose weight first”, “I’m not sexy enough”, “I don’t have any lingerie”, “I’m not young enough to do that”, or “I’m not <insert insecurity here> enough.” Whatever it may be, I can tell you now that all of those excuses are bullshit!
Women have a great habit of mentally beating themselves up, and using negative words to describe themselves. I know I’m guilty of this at times too. But trust me when I say, this boudoir shoot experience has the ability to change how you see yourself and how you carry yourself every day. I’ve seen the changes in women first hand. Booking a boudoir shoot an investment in you… over and above the images!
I understand that having a professional photograph taken can be a little nerve wracking, especially boudoir photos. But take a deep breath and relax… because you will be well looked after. I’ve been creating beautiful boudoir imagery for hundreds of women for over 8 years, so your investment in my services extends way beyond the click of a button. From start to finish you’ll receive a professional, seamless experience that’s easy and enjoyable. So rest assured that you’re in excellent hands!
COMBAT THE NERVES & THE SELF DOUBT TO BOOK
I know women well enough though to be realistic. I understand many of you struggle with self-love, no matter how much anyone insists on your beauty. You’re still going to want to lose a few more kilos before the session right? For THOSE women, I can assure you, this isn’t my first rodeo! The majority of women who come in to see me are working on loving themselves, but struggle. There’s usually something the wish they could change... the size of their thighs, their tummy, their stretch marks, etc... I take women’s feelings very seriously and specialise in making everyone feel MORE than comfortable.
It’s remarkable the number of women I hear say “I can’t be sexy”. The truth is they couldn’t be more wrong. Women are naturally sexy, full stop – and I can prove it. You don’t need to know how to pose, or be a model to do a boudoir shoot. I will coach and guide you into poses that highlight your natural beauty, and show off your best assets. Take this moment to step into your femininity! I’ve spent the last 8 years photographing all kinds of women, all remarkable in their own way. I’ve mastered my craft to ensure that I am highlighting the attributes that women love most about themselves, whilst downplaying any areas of concern.
The majority of the women that I shoot come in quite nervous and have never been in front of a camera before. That’s completely normal! What I promise is that we will make sure you have a great day, relax quickly, and most of all have fun. You will leave feeling gorgeous and fantastic - that’s a promise. So I’d encourage you to plan a special afternoon or night afterwards to go celebrate your new found confidence!
GET COMFORTABLE IN YOUR OWN SKIN
Do you have to get nude during the shoot? The answer of course is no. But I will strongly encourage it at the end of your shoot. Why? Because it is completely invigorating, empowering and totally fine to love your naked body! You will be so comfortable by this stage of the shoot; you will forget you are naked in front of a stranger. Or better yet… you won’t care! We’re all women, and my focus will be on posing you, working with the light, and capturing your body in the most flattering ways possible (don’t worry, all your lady bits will be strategically hidden). Fine art-nude shots are so effortlessly beautiful and timeless and quite often, the favourite images from a client’s shoot. These types of shots are amazing for women of any shape or size, and the finished images are so classy you will want to have them on display on your walls!
IT’S ACTUALLY A LOT OF FUN!
How often do we, as women and mums, take time to pamper ourselves? If you’re anything like me, very rarely. Use this experience as an opportunity to not only be pampered by a professional hair and makeup artist on the day of your shoot, but also to practice some more self love exercises… have your nails done, get a facial, get a fake tan, go shopping and buy some new lingerie. You deserve it!
DO THIS FOR YOU
Sorry to burst the bubble, but doing a boudoir shoot is NOT about a man! Of course, there’s nothing wrong with doing a boudoir shoot for your partner, but how liberating and beautiful would it be if you did it for YOURSELF only?
We spend so much time focused on our careers, our families, our Facebook status... we don't take the time to actually take care of ourselves. Take a day to get pampered by a professional stylist… have an empowering photo shoot… then enjoy a stunning a collection of photos, that you can look at as often as you want! Reminding yourself just how AMAZING you are … might just be what you need right now. And remember - It's not selfish to treat yourself once in a while. It's necessary.
Reinvigorate yourself as a woman. See yourself through someone else’s eyes. Ooze confidence, strength, and passion. You can do this… just like some of these beautiful women before you…
MUM BOD
After having kids, your body is never quite the same as it was when you were 20 years old. The shape of your body has changed and shifted, and as women we often get critical of ourselves. But why shouldn’t we love and appreciate our bodies for what they are now and what they have accomplished?! Now you have more curves… and you know what? That’s actually sexy and feminine as hell! The longer you have lived, the more you have to celebrate – your body, your achievements, your perfect imperfections, and motherhood!
I can empathise with how all the mum’s feel about their bodies, after watching my own go through many ups and downs over the last decade - two pregnancies and two kids later. I see women walk into my studio every week, each with their own different body challenges. And the absolute truth is… each and every one of them has overcome their insecurities, trusted me to capture their beauty, and walked away with an incredible self-esteem boost and beautiful images to match!
YOU WILL BE INSPIRATION
A lot of women book boudoir shoots with me based on referrals from their friends and family. If you choose to share images from your boudoir experience with other women, you may just be THE inspiration they need to book a shoot. Anxiety and doubt keep so many of us from doing something we always wanted to do. The more we see women empowering themselves, the more the circle of liberation will continue!
Whether you’re a mum or not, whether you think you need to lose weight, whether you think you’re too old for this, or that your body isn’t as perfect as it once was… YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. A boudoir shoot experience will bring out a side in you that was there all along. It’s the first step towards regaining your confidence…
