My "Why" of photographing Boudoir is ever evolving

May 05, 2024 in boudoir

Art has a way of healing and that’s been the common thread throughout my years of this work. While my reasons for being passionate about it might change and take new shape, my voice has always been for women. We need places to go where we feel seen. We need others to tell our stories so that we don’t get lost. We need gifts of silence in the day-to-day chaos. We deserve pockets of refuge in this vast existence.

Palm Beach Boudoir Session

I just got off of a phone call with a fellow boudoir photographer who was inquiring about my one-on-one mentoring sessions. We talked for over an hour about why we do this, why it’s SO incredibly important for women to experience these sessions, and why we do in-person sales (as opposed to just throwing the digital files at our clients and making them figure it out). No matter what is said or learned, it always comes down to the fact that we do this for HER; the client. I won’t lie and tell you this job is easy, it’s not. We spend about 10% of our time actually photographing and the other is spent on our business. We market, network, budget, figure out the best products for our clients, order samples, continue our education, do consultations, do ordering sessions, drive hours to our clients locations, etc. We lose sleep, wondering how to continue to provide a one-of-a-kind luxury service that will set us apart from other photographers. It’s a constant rollercoaster of having incredible highs and really low lows. So why? Why am I still doing this, after 10 years in business and 20 years of photographing?

Boca Raton Boudoir

I’m sharing Erin’s boudoir session, again, because it’s being featured on Bajan Wed and I’m still in love with every photograph.

Erin's boudoir session is still one of my favorites. She came a little unsure of how the session would go. She, like every woman, has insecurities and doubts. This is honestly why I believe that every woman should do a boudoir session at some point in her life (if not multiple times). She showed up with her sister who ended up being her biggest cheerleader. It was such an encouraging and empowering session. It was three women constantly praising Erin and letting her know just how phenomenal she is. It was something that radiated so far beyond her beautiful face and elongated body.

Fitness Model Boudoir Session

It’s incredible to photograph so many different women of varying body shapes. Women are so beautiful and I love that they trust me with such intimate moments. We are so hard on ourselves, even for the smallest imperfections. My goal is to crush that stigma with every single photo session.
