I completely understand how people are nervous when it comes to getting their boudoir photographs taken. You are in front of a camera at your most vulnerable while putting your trust in another person’s hands.
I completely understand how people are nervous when it comes to getting their boudoir photographs taken. You are in front of a camera at your most vulnerable while putting your trust in another person’s hands. It takes a special kind of courage to step out of the bathroom with nothing to hide behind, and with body image insecurities the anxiety gets amplified. It’s easy to compare yourself to someone else’s highlight reel on social media, but you do not know what battles they may be editing out. The truth is, beauty, true beauty, comes from within. It’s being comfortable with how you look, and who you are. Having a child is by no means an easy task, but the resulting tiny best friend makes it all worth it.
If you haven’t noticed a trend, I am pretty good at bringing out the best facial expressions.
It’s so easy to be sexy while still concealing a lot of skin. These next set of images show what having a baby is really like behind closed doors. Ms K SPECIFICALLY reached out to me about documenting this moment in her life to celebrate what it really is like postpartum.
With strategic posing we can also take boudoir photos that will show off your curves. You would never have guessed she had a baby with this bed shot.
You don’t have to be a freshman in college to take beautiful boudoir photographs. Be proud of who you are, and what you have done. Embrace the freckles, scars, and curves. There is no one else in the world that is quite like you, and that is what makes you beautiful.
