Why You Deserve A Boudoir Experience
Busting Excuses
When we get nervous, we make excuses. We make excuses not to love ourselves or take care of oursevles. Sometimes life is just busy, we are too crazy at work, or always have to drive someone SOMEWHERE. Sometimes, it’s more important to spend time with your spouse. We also use excuses like “I want to lose 15 pounds first!” and “I just don’t have the money right now!” I wanted to write this to show you all that no matter the excuse, you CAN do it. Let me show you that no matter the excuse, you are worthy of self love.
“I don’t have enough time for myself”
It’s also important to remember that if you aren’t taking care of yourself mentally, you’re not going ot be able to handle taking care of everyone else. Which makes sense, but is actually much harder said than done. Don’t forget to give yourself a break and breathe for a minute.
At a boudoir shoot you are able to breathe, and love yourself extra for a few hours. Think of all the energy you’ll save on a daily basis if you stop comparing yourself to others, or stop worrying about what other people will think of how you look. You get to see where your beauty really comes from and this lifts such a huge mental weight.
You need to take time for yourself, why not spend it having an amazing time and getting glammed up for once?
“I’m not where I want to be weight wise / I don’t fit society’s idea of a good enough body type”
Did you know that the body type portrayed in advertising as the ideal is possessed naturally by only 5% of American females? ONLY FIVE PERCENT.
I will say this over and over again (and sorry, not sorry if you’ve heard me say it before), but WHY do you have to be a certain size to LOVE yourself? WHY do you have to fit a strangers messed up idea of a perfect body to LOVE your own body? WHY are you conparing your size to everyone else, when no 2 women are the same.
I think it’s amazing to have goals and want to get healthy, but does that mean you have to hate your body to do those things? Or that you have to hide your body in the meantime? Absolutely NOT. You should love yourself every step of the way. Be proud of where are so that you be proud where you’re going. Have a boudoir shoot to celebrate where you are now, and then have one when you lose that 15 pounds to celebrate how far you’ve come.
“I never feel sexy or sensual anymore, so a boudoir shoot must not be for me.”
WRONG.
This excuse is actually the EXACT reason you SHOULD do a boudoir shoot.
OFten times we lose touch with our femininity or sexuality when life gets crazy because of health/kids/work/etc. It happens a lot and it is absolutely normal and okay. A great way to find this side of ourselves again is to have a boudoir shoot to put that spark back in us. I can show you that you have that inside you somewhere. And it might even ignite a new spark between you and your partner as well.
Another thing to remember is that you don’t HAVE to wear super sexy clothing/lingerie. If you feel this doesn’t show your personality, then there are so many other outfit ideas. I will gladly talk to you about them or you can check out my portfolio and other blog posts for outfit inspiration.
“A boudoir shoot is an investment and I don’t have all the money right now.”
Yes, a boudoir shoot IS an investment. It’s also an investment in yourself. You are investing in your well-being and confidence as well. We do offer payment plans. In order to book your shoot, there is a session fee. After that, I can help you get set up with a payment plan for the remaining amount so that it might be easier to book a shoot. If you have any questions about our payment plans, just shoot us an email while setting up your shoot!
