5 Reasons to book a boudoir photoshoot..
So… if you didn’t already know… I am a huge feminist… I honestly believe its essential in the world we live in to keep the core values of female empowerment alive!
I know firsthand how empowering a photoshoot can be… I’ve had my own photoshoots, and I also take regular self portraits… so I am constantly reminding myself of how it feels to be on the “other side” of the camera.. I know how creating images of yourself can really help you embrace who you are and although the thought may feel a bit daunting the reality is that when you actually do it - you walk away feeling so empowered and incredible.
So, here are my top 5 reasons to book yourself a boudoir shoot (with me ha ha!)
Embrace your true self - in a world that is constantly bombarding us with how it (and my it I mean the men sat in boardrooms making money off trying to sell us shit we don’t need so we can aspire to their ideal beauty standards that are completely unattainable!) - a boudoir or empowerment photoshoot lets you step away and break free from that… we have no expectations here other than to celebrate YOU - just the way you are!
Challenging the norms - so many images we see of women are taken through the “male gaze’ - we don’t do that here - thats not to say your male partner (if you have one) won’t enjoy seeing the photos of you - but that is NOT who we are making them for… we are making them for you - through the FEMALE GAZE… a lens which celebrates the authentic you, and everything that makes you unique as a woman.
Love your body - SO many of us struggle with body image, and believe it or not, an empowering photoshoot is a great way to shift that perspective. It’s common to think that you have to love your body before you book the shoot… but honestly the transformation in confidence that comes with a boudoir experience is unmatched… so do it scared, do it nervous, do it before you think you’re ready - because the experience of reconnecting with your body through making art really helps you to embrace it for all its strengths, and beauty.
Tell your story - Every single woman you know has a story worth telling, and I want to help you tell yours through the gorgeous images we create together.. whether you are celebrating a milestone, or just want to capture yourself to create those memories for the future - the experience really does tell your story as its completely personalised to you.
Celebrate your strength - The whole boudoir experience is about empowering you to feel confident and proud of who you are, embracing your unique beauty, your strength, your resilience, and the way you walk through the world. You are one hell of a woman, and the great thing about a boudoir photoshoot is when you look back on your images… you remember how incredible you actually are!
Let me help you embrace and celebrate all the parts of you that make you unique!
