You are going to be nervous for your boudoir shoot, it’s normal. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You may even have a little anxiety and be scared to even enquire. You might start to doubt yourself... but you shouldn’t. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This experience is unlike any other. Seeing yourself for who you are and as beautiful as you are. Giving your mind the chance to slow down, your body to be pampered, and your soul to be replenished. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some people may think this is just about pretty photos. To me, this is a form of much needed therapy.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So many women suffer from body dysmorphia, anorexia, abuse, and years of bullying. As teenagers we are trained by media to have perfect bodies. We are shamed at young ages if we are different and this pain follows us through life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A photo shoot with me, is when many women get to see their bodies for the first time through kind eyes. I get to show them their beauty and teach them being different is amazing. That’s my super power. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So stop the self hate. Stop the self doubt. Learn that you can be kind to yourself even if you aren’t happy with parts of your body. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s time to compliment yourself and thank your body for all its done. It’s time for a session. You deserve it.
“I recently had my first shoot with Steph, and I am still on such a high from the experience. From the moment I walked into the studio my nerves were at ease. Steph is very down to earth and lovely to work with. The whole experience including hair and makeup was such an incredible day. The studio is beautiful and so many options for different styles of photos. Steph is a true professional! She works with you getting your ideas for the shoot and then gives her input of what could look good, she gets into position and shows you how to pose so you aren't having to think of what to do, and few pics she gives you a sneak peak at during the shoot are amazing and you can't wait to see more. I love how Stephs work is about empowering women and it’s definately that! No matter what size or shape you are, you feel beautiful! I am already thinking of ideas for my second shoot, Ican't wait! I have been following Stephs work for a few years on Insta, and I immediately fell in love with her work. I put off booking a shoot with her for ages as I always felt like my body wasn't in the right shape, but I finally bit the bullet as I realised this is what her work is about- making women feel beautiful and I am enough... now!”
“Steph is such an amazing photographer, I was a bit nervous for my shoot but as soon as I arrived she was warm and welcoming and made me feel at easy from the moment she opened the door. She gave me lots of options and asked what I was comfortable with and what wanted, and kept checking with me throughout to make sure I wasn’t feeling nervous or uncomfortable. Very professional, friendly, and a fantastic photographer :) Ps shout out to Emma for making me look and feel glam with my hair and makeup! She did a great job and I had many comments after when I went to work at how great my make up was and how gorgeous my curls were. It is now 2 days post shoot and my hair is still holding its curl beautifully, which is awesome.”
I would love to give you this incredible experience as well. The first step is to take the leap, and get in touch. All you ever wanted is on the other side of fear :)
