When you think about booking a boudoir session, how often do you find yourself making excuses based on your physical appearance as to why you have to wait? “When I lose 10 lbs, I am gonna book.” “As soon as I tone up a little bit, I will finally book.” “I want to wait until my hair gets a little longer so that I can book my shoot.” I know many of you have had a thought along those lines at some point for a couple of reasons. First, I have had those thoughts myself before a boudoir shoot. Second, I have heard my clients and dear friends say it as well.
Before my last boudoir shoot, I told myself I was going to lose 10 lbs. I try to do at least 2 shoots a year for myself because I like to practice what I preach, and I ALWAYS leave my session feeling like a total bad ass. Anyways, I never lost the weight. In fact, I had actually gained the weight. Instead of kicking myself in the ass over it, I decided to book the shoot and do it anyways. After seeing the photos, I remember thinking how happy, beautiful and healthy I looked. As someone who has had an ED most of her life, it was such a proud moment for me. Thinking to myself, “Damn, I can gain weight, still be happy and feel even more beautiful? Someone get my a f**king burger!”
But seriously, boudoir shoots are about celebrating who you are in this moment. It is so celebrate your power, beauty and light. I promise you that when you leave the studio, you won’t think about the 20 lbs you were wanting to lose. Your only regret will be that you didn’t book the shoot sooner. So what are you waiting for? Book a shoot and celebrate how truly bad ass you are, exactly in this moment.
