Boudoir 101 | Everything You Need to Know
Is Boudoir Photography for You?
The answer is yes, and here’s why.
Boudoir photography is about empowerment, not enticement. Although these portraits can be the perfect gift for your significant other, their primary purpose is to ignite your confidence, face your fears, and celebrate your beauty.
What is Boudoir Photography?
Boudoir photography is a professional photoshoot experience with an intimate style of portraiture. Many women book their sessions for special occasions, including bridal boudoir or anniversaries, however, we believe boudoir is for all occasions.
Boudoir is about authenticity. It captures who you really are while making you feel incredibly gorgeous, loved, and accepted.
It’s something you have to see to believe—there is nothing quite like reaffirming your beauty through something like this.
Misconceptions About Boudoir
Here are some of the most common things we hear from anyone unsure about a boudoir session:
“I want to lose weight first.”
“Maybe some day I’ll have confidence for this.”
“Must be nice to be that pretty. I will never be able to do this because I don’t look like those women.”
“This is a nice concept, but I don’t know that I can look sexy.”
Every single woman that’s visited our Massena boudoir studio was nervous—and that’s an understatement. There is a story and journey behind every photograph.
Fear is normal, and believe it or not, it’s a good thing.
Boudoir gives you the opportunity to choose bravery over doubt. It’s the choice to be an extraordinary, everyday woman while taking a risk.
Rest assured, we’ll be your biggest cheerleader. From booking your session to posing during your experience, we are here to help. This might be a big step outside your comfort zone, but it’s our job to make you feel like your best self (spoiler alert: we’re pretty good at it)!
