Deep down, she had always wanted to do a boudoir photo shoot. She’d seen other women doing it, strangers on Instagram, fellow moms — and every time, she’d think “That looks amazing… I wish I had the confidence to do that.” But then life would get in the way. Kids, work, errands, family photos — always a reason for her to put herself last.
Then one day, out of nowhere, a friend of her’s had her own boudoir shoot, seemingly without thinking twice about it. Something in her snapped! “Why the HELL am I not going for it?”
She had spent years building a life she loved but somewhere in the chaos, she had forgotten about herself. She wasn’t just a mom. She wasn’t just a wife. She was a woman who deserved to feel incredible and embrace her feminine power.
Doing It for Her
When she walked into my studio she said she wanted to remind herself that she’s still got it. She wanted to feel sexy, empowered and beautiful. “I’m doing this for me. My husband is just getting lucky.”
And that’s exactly the energy she brought to her intimate boudoir photo shoot.
She was nervous at first but once she saw her first photo on the back of my camera? That was it. The fire was still there. The confidence, the smirk, the way she carried herself—it had never left.
By the end of her boudoir shoot, she was glowing. Not because of the perfect lighting (though trust me, it was flawless), but because she felt like herself again.
The Moment She Saw Her Photos
When she came back for her reveal session to see her final images, her first reaction was: “Oh wow, it’s almost like you can’t believe it’s you.” But it was. It was always her. She just needed a reminder. “I never like pictures of myself!”
And her husband? Oh, he loved them but the best part? SHE loved them.
If you’ve been watching other women embrace self-love and step into their power with boudoir photography, wondering when it’ll be your turn — this is it.
You don’t need to lose weight, be younger, or wait for the “right time”. You are already worthy of capturing your beauty and confidence.
So, why the hell not?!
