Why you need to book a boudoir session as a gift to yourself | Atlanta Boudoir Photographer


Alright, ya’ll, let’s have a heart-to-heart.

You’ve been juggling careers, family, and all the little details of life like a circus performer on a unicycle. When was the last time you did something that was just for YOU? No, not the “finally get to binge-watch your favorite show” moment, but something truly indulgent and fabulous that you do for YOU. If your answer involves a shrug and a look of guilt, it’s time to rethink your self-care game. Let’s talk about why a boudoir shoot is the self-gift you didn’t know you needed.

Let’s set the scene because this is not your average photoshoot. This is where glam meets grit in the most stunning way. You, in all your power and glory (regardless of the week/month/year that you’ve had), being pampered and styled to look like the goddess you are. We’re talking a day of full-on indulgence designed just for you. Forget the endless to-do lists and family demands for a moment. We’ll put on your favorite music, have a full professional hair/makeup session, play ‘adult dress-up’, and end with a set of images that are designed to remind yourself of the person that STILL exists inside of you. This is a time to treat yourself to a day where the only thing you need to focus on is how fabulous you feel. Because, let’s be honest, you deserve a day where you’re the center of attention—no guilt required.

Seeing yourself in those professionally shot and retouched photos is like a confidence boost straight to the heart. You’ll look at those images and think, “Wow, is that really me?” Spoiler alert: yes, it is. And that newfound confidence? It’ll stick around longer than the glow from your makeup.

It’s time to focus on you, enjoy professional pampering, and leave with photos that will make you feel like the radiant human you truly are. Because in the end, the best gift you can give yourself is a little bit of fabulous self-love, even if it’s more of a ‘fake it until I make it’ situation.

Client Interview | Atlanta Boudoir photographer

Hellloooooo there! Do you ever wish you could see into the lives of the very women that grace my website? They aren't models (yet), they are moms, doctors, students, paralegals, microbiologists, travelers, writers, lawyers, musicians, non-profit CEOs, and retail managers. They love tacos, carbs, their kid's soccer team (sometimes), an occasional gym class, sleeping, wine juice boxes, reality TV, dressing up or down, and privacy. 

Getting to interview my clients after their boudoir session let's me continue my relationship with them while also being super nosy. I guess it also allows me to be super helpful to you that are interested in even possibly-sometimes-maybe-kind-of considering hitting the 'contact' button and getting in touch with me. 

Today's interview is for all of you ladies that get lost in the busyness of life and need a little reminder that you've got so much to offer:

 

1) How old are you... or if you prefer, who were you listening to at age 14 :)?

I am 28! 

2) What do you do for a living?

I am a genetics graduate student.

3) What/who made you decide to book a boudoir session?

I wanted to do something nice for myself and something that would make me feel beautiful. I've seen pictures of boudoir images online and I thought, "I don't need a reason to do that!", so I signed up! I loved my session, it totally went beyond my expectations! 

4) Did you have any obstacles or fears about boudoir?

I was a little fearful about being naked in front of someone I don't know. However, Sarah made it a very comfortable atmosphere. She was so encouraging and loving, it didn't feel weird at all once you got into it. I was also fearful about my images coming out awkward. I thought that I would make weird faces or my images wouldn't be sexy at all....but I was so wrong! 

 

5) Why did you choose OWN? 

I really like Sarah's style. I feel like they are beautiful and artistic images that you would want to display in your home. I think Sarah has a style that is very unique in this field. I am not one for really intense images, I wanted something softer and beautiful and I knew Sarah could do that! 

6) How was the actual session different from what you expected (if at all)?

It was way different than I expected. It was just a comfortable and fun experience. 

7) What was your favorite part of the entire experience? (priming, the shoot, seeing images, giving the images..etc)

My favorite part was the posing. It made me feel like I was a model in a photoshoot. So fun! 

8) How has the response been to your images?

I loved them! I had a hard time picking my favorites for sure.

9) What is your advice for women interested in such a session?

Just do it! You will not regret it! You will have beautiful images of yourself forever and these images are classy and timeless so you can display them in your home for years to come. This was one of my favorite things I have ever done for myself, I will be doing these again in the future for sure. 

10) Did anything change about the way you see your own beauty as a result of this session?

Yes, I thought, "I look SO amazing!" when I saw these images. I saw a new side of myself that I don't see on a daily basis. These images will be a reminder to me to stop and see how beautiful I am in the midst of all the busyness in life.
