One of the most beautiful people I’ve had the honor of photographing…her confidence, smile, and personality are infectious!
Yes, boudoir photography is for every body. Whether you're a size 2 or a size 22, in your 20s or your 60s, confident or terrified, a boudoir session is about celebrating you, exactly as you are.
Many people think boudoir is something only a certain type of person would do: someone who is already confident and comfortable in their own skin, someone drop-dead gorgeous with a "perfect" body and radiant skin. But the truth is, boudoir photoshoots are for everyone!
Who is boudoir photography for?
It doesn't matter what gender you are or whether you're a size 2 or a size 22. Boudoir photoshoots are about celebrating YOU and your unique beauty. They're about embracing your body, just as it is, and feeling confident and beautiful in your own skin. That's something every person deserves to experience. Age, size, and looks do not define who you are, but society has had a huge impact on making people who don't fit into a certain box feel inferior, which, to put it simply, is a load of garbage.
In the San Francisco Bay Area, there are millions of people who all look different and have had different life experiences that have shaped them into who they are. And that is a beautiful thing! None of my clients have looked alike, EVER. But they are all still beautiful (inside and out), and helping them see that for themselves has been one of the most important and special gifts I've been able to give anyone.
What if I'm worried my body isn't "perfect" enough?
Many people are hesitant to book a boudoir shoot because they're worried about not being "perfect" enough. But there is no such thing as a "perfect" body. Every person has their own unique beauty, and a boudoir shoot is an opportunity to celebrate that. It doesn't matter if you have freckles, moles, cellulite, body acne, a stomach pooch, or sagging boobs. It's all normal!
Of course, we all have insecurities about our bodies. BUT once you realize that it's just the norm, it gets much easier to free yourself from that negative thinking. During your session, I guide you through poses that flatter your figure and highlight your best features. You'll be surprised at how beautiful you look when seen through the lens of a professional boudoir photographer. EVERY client I show the back of my camera to says something like "Wow! That's me?!? I didn't know I could look like that!" Once you see yourself in a new light, the transformation that takes place inside of you is mind-blowing! It's my favorite part of your boudoir experience!!
Am I too old (or too young) for boudoir?
Boudoir is for everyone at any stage of their adult life. You don't need to be a certain age to book a session. Whether you're just starting out in your 20s or you're more mature and want to celebrate your beauty and milestones, a boudoir session is the perfect way to do it.
Can a boudoir session boost my self-confidence?
Yes. It's easy to get caught up in the self-criticism and negative self-talk we all experience from time to time. But when you see yourself through the lens of a professional boudoir photographer, you'll see yourself in a different light. You'll see that you are beautiful, confident, and sexy. Celebrating your unique beauty and feeling confident in your own skin is the best way to live your life to the fullest. Wondering if it's worth it? Here's why boudoir photography is worth the investment, and what it costs in the San Francisco Bay Area.
