5 Reasons Every Girl Should Do a Boudoir Shoot!
I have two VERY different experiences with boudoir shoots, and I have to share both to give you reasons why you should do one yourself! Boudoir is not something I ever saw myself doing, but when my wedding came around I wanted to for my future husband. I won a shoot at a bridal event and thought wow this will be perfect for me! I got ready, felt pretty and then showed up to the studio. It was not what I had expected. The room was dark and she had to use artificial lighting and I am a sucker for natural lighting on all of my pictures. I didn't feel comfortable in her studio and you know what, my pictures sucked. I didn't like my face in any of the pictures because I was uncomfortable and they were supposed to be a wedding gift to my husband, but I was too embarrassed by them to even share them.
So fast forward a few months after my wedding... still haven't shown the hubby my pictures. I felt really bad because they were his wedding gift! Then I get an email from Fiona from Flawless. I looked at their site and portfolio and thought YES! I have to do this!! I didn't even ask the hubby, I just told him (such a great wife hehe!). I went shopping and bought the cutest bodysuit and knew I was ready for this one. I arrived and Fiona was the nicest person ever!! She welcomed me with a hug and made me feel right at home. Blyss from The Industry in Del Mar did an amazing job on my hair and makeup! I could not have asked for more beautiful pictures. They made me feel confident while I was there and felt like we have known each other for months!
1. self-confidence: getting your hair and makeup done and putting on something that makes you beautiful changes everything! I felt like a million bucks after my shoot. I forced my hubby to take me out to a nice dinner that night since I was ready for it anyway!
2. you and your significant other will love them: I am obsessed with my pictures. They make me feel better than I could ever imagine and my husband loves them too!
3. It's a lot of fun... with Flawless! I cannot thank Fiona and Blyss for making me feel beautiful in that moment. They made me feel amazing the entire time I was there!
4. hello... you get to go shopping! It was so much fun to shop for new lingerie! I got my bodysuit from Victoria Secret. It is currently on sale now {under $30!} so shop it here or below!
5. self worth and girl power! Girl you do you and do it now! Feel beautiful the way you are! You don't need to lose that "extra" weight because you are beautiful the way you are!
