Let's talk about insecurities!!

Ok, ya’ll… let's get real. We all have insecurities about our bodies. We usually hear all about our thighs, our arms, or that pesky little roll that seems to make its appearance no matter what we do. The truth is that we all have SOMETHING that makes us feel a little less confident. But hey, that's just part of being a woman! It's time to embrace our imperfections and love ourselves for who we are.

In my time as a boudoir photographer I’ve heard about the ‘typical’ insecurities, but we are so much more complex than the typical insecurities.

I mean, let's be honest, who hasn't stood in front of the mirror and sucked in their stomach or tried to make their butt look a little perkier? We've all been there, and it's okay! But what about the c-section scars, the botched breast reductions, the trauma scars that can’t be seen to the naked eye….the uneven earlobes (yes I’ve heard someone mention this to me!!)? We all have insecurities that we feel very much alone in. These insecurities walk with us every day of our lives, and then especially try to make themselves a guest at your boudoir session.

At the end of the day our insecurities can F*** right off because we already have enough stress and pressure in our lives without adding something else to it. We're all beautiful in our own way, and that’s a cliche I’ll stand by.

So let's embrace our curves, our lumps, and our bumps, our uneven earlobes, and remember that we're all in this together. Because let's face it, life's too short to spend it obsessing over our bodies. Let's go out there and show the world just how fabulous we really are!
