5 of the Biggest Misconceptions about Boudoir Photography

Think you have to be a model, a 21 year old or even have a reason to do a boudoir shoot? Think again.

I’m here to clear up 3 of the biggest misconceptions about boudoir photography.


one - I need to be a model

Nope. Not even close. You don’t need to know how to pose or even how to look sexy. That’s My job! I will help you relax, find your inner confidence and clear that noise in your head.

two- I need to lose weight first

No again. You can book a boudoir session at ANY weight. First of all, be proud of your curves. Second of all, we can work together to highlight your most flattering features and play down parts that you don’t love as much. Not only that, but posing, the right wardrobe and lighting are your friend!

three - I’m too old

I have shot women of all ages. There are not limits when it comes to boudoir. In fact, most of my clients are over 40.

four - My pictures will be all over the internet

Not unless you choose that! Before we shoot your session, you let me know if your images are ok to be used on my website or social media (for promotional purposes only) or if the images are for your eyes only!

five - I have no reason to book a boudoir session

You do not need a reason. Repeat after me: YOU DO NOT NEED A REASON! Many ladies come to me after a breakup or divorce or as a wedding gift for their fiancé. But guess what?? A majority of my clients are women who simply want to do something for themselves. That’s it. Boudoir sessions might sound intimidating and out of your comfort zone at first, but during and after the session, you will feel a sense of confidence and empowerment like none other. And what woman doesn’t want to feel that.. for no reason at all?
