Boudoir photography is a powerful and transformative experience! I will never get tired of saying it, but I TRULY believe it is something you should do at least once in your lifetime. But, many misconceptions still surround it! These prevent soooo many people from exploring boudoir photography, and falling in love with something truly transforming! Let’s break down these 5 boudoir myths, and show you WHY you are more than perfect for a boudoir photoshoot. 

Myth 1: Boudoir Photography is Only for “Young and Fit People”

Okay, first thing first!! Before we get into this one, erase everything you have in your mind about what you THINK is the perfect body. YOU have the perfect body! You are wonderfully made and absolutely perfect just the way you are. One of the biggest boudoir myths is that boudoir photography is only for young, fit, small, tiny, individuals. This couldn’t be further from the truth!! It is soooo far from the truth, it hurts my heart that this is even floating out there.

Boudoir is for EVERYONE and EVERY BODY. Regardless of age, body type, fitness level, anything. The essence of boudoir photography is to celebrate YOU as you are. Celebrate and honor your body, in every single way, exactly as you are! Every body is a boudoir body. You don’t need to be a size 0 or be in the best shape of your life, you just need to be YOU! 

Myth 2: You Have to Be Nude

While being nude is always an option, it is not the ONLY option. Boudoir is about capturing sensuality and confidence, not necessarily nudity. You can choose to wear a spicy new lingerie set, a fancy robe, or your favorite oversized sweater, wrap yourself in just the sheet, or go completely nude. What you decide to wear, or not wear, is entirely up to YOU! Whatever you are comfortable with, is more than enough for me. 

Myth 3: Boudoir Photos Are Only for Your Partner

Who says you can’t do a boudoir session for just yourself?! Not me!! While boudoir photos make a fantastic gift for a partner, they are also the best gift for yourself. Celebrate your life! Take time to find your confidence, boost your self-esteem, celebrate another year of life, honor your changing body, or just because! Boudoir photos can serve as a powerful personal keepsake, celebrating self-love and confidence. You deserve that!!

Myth 4: You Need Professional Modeling Experience

Worried that you need to be a professional model to look HOT?!? Couldn’t be further from the truth!! I take alllll the time in the world to pose you, guide you, and set you up to look and feel your best. Hair in your face, strap falling, or the sun not shining JUST right?! We keep going till it’s just perfect! You don’t have to be a runway model, you just need to be YOU!

Myth 5: Boudoir Photography is Not Worth the Investment

While boudoir photography can be a big investment, it pays off in more ways than one! It is an investment in yourself. An investment in your life, your confidence, your self-love and so much more. The experience itself is invaluable, and the images are priceless.
