It's been a few months, with some crazy, somewhat scary things, so I'm kicking off my re-emergence into life as a Boudoir Photographer by sharing a session for an AMAZING woman that makes me smile.
Mommy to two, Mrs. A called me out of the blue one morning, and I instantly felt a connection chatting with her about why she was interested in booking a boudoir session. I was thrilled that she was doing a session "for her husband", because those words made the end result SO much more fun! But more on that later ;)
Like almost every woman in the studio, Mrs. A was nervous - heck, I needed a couple drinks when I had my photos done! But she, in the caring and talented hands of Hair & Makeup Artist Amber of Bella by Amber, soon got into the swing of things, and was a natural posing, sexy mama (umm, hi, she has two kids, and still looks this good). Just look at these stunning images that she was gracious enough to let me share!
Yeah. I know. But she's too sweet to hate, no matter how rockin' that mom bod is! ;) I love how she described her experience:
" I am so happy with my photos!!! I could not have asked for anything better! I was so nervous going in and definetly not a model but she made me feel so comfortable and very professional! I feel like because of her coaching and good eye my pictures came out so beautiful. I am a mom of two little ones and was so nice to feel sexy again and not just a mom. My husband's face was priceless when he opened his surprise birthday gift. He said it was the best present he has ever gotten. The pictures and experience was worth every penny! I highly recommend Felicia! I am sending any family or friends to her! Thanks again for the amazing experience and photos I can have the rest of my life that I feel proud of."
That "amazing experience" and "photos...that {you} feel proud of" - THAT is what a boudoir session is all about. Sure, the husband/boyfriend/etc will love the images (really, he would prefer them to say, another tie or custom etched flask) - but YOU will come away more confident, powerful, and gorgeous for having done such a brave thing. I mean, it's not every day you get in your skivvies (or less) for a total stranger, prance around a studio for an hour or two, and have a total BLAST.
Please, don't let nervousness stand in your way - all those insecurities holding you back will only make your emergence more triumphant and powerful once you see your images and not those "flaws".
Now is the perfect time to book for Valentines, Anniversary's, or Birthdays. And it's never too soon to start planning for next Christmas. Email me or visit my website to get started on your journey to breaking that inner sexy back out.
