Conquering Limiting Beliefs with Boudoir
When we become anxious or insecure, we tend to create justifications to avoid prioritizing self-care or investing in ourselves. We often use our busy schedules, workloads, family responsibilities, or financial constraints as excuses to delay self-love and personal growth. Some of us may even hold back because we believe we need to reach a certain weight or financial status first.
However, I want to emphasize that regardless of the reasoning behind our hesitations, each and every one of us deserves to value ourselves and feel self-assured. I am here to remind you that no matter what excuse you may have, you are deserving of self-love and should feel empowered to pursue it.
Prioritizing Self-Care: Carving Out Time for Yourself
It’s crucial to recognize that neglecting your mental well-being can make it challenging to manage the responsibilities of caring for others, although this is often easier said than done. When you are consistently on-the-go, attending to various tasks and others’ needs, it’s effortless to disregard your own self-care.
However, the reality is that if you don’t prioritize self-care, it’s unlikely that anyone else will. Even I find myself using the same excuses as mentioned earlier, and at times, it takes someone reminding me to pause, take a deep breath, and focus on myself for a change. It’s overdue, and we all deserve to make self-care a priority in our lives.
Embracing Body Positivity: Overcoming Weight-Related Insecurities
Were you aware that only 5% of American women possess the body type idealized in advertisements? ONLY FIVE PERCENT. Why should you have to conform to a particular size to feel self-love? Why should you base your self-worth on a stranger’s unrealistic standards of the “perfect” body? Why should you compare yourself to others when every woman’s body is unique?
While it’s admirable to have aspirations and strive for improved health, that does not mean you need to loathe your body throughout the process. Quite the contrary, you should appreciate yourself every step of the way and be proud of your journey. Embracing boudoir photography can help you love yourself as you are today, with all your imperfections, rather than changing to be something you’re not.
It’s about recognizing your innate beauty and allowing it to shine. Whether you choose to celebrate where you are now or commemorate your progress down the road, a boudoir shoot can be a powerful experience that instills self-confidence and self-love.
Through the guidance of a professional photographer, you will learn to embrace yourself, irrespective of your size or shape. Your photographer will provide expert posing tips and outfit recommendations that complement your body and highlight your favorite features while also being sensitive to your insecurities.
The boudoir experience is more than just a photo shoot; it is an opportunity to feel like a goddess and appreciate the beauty within you. After the session, most clients express that they look amazing and feel more in love with themselves than ever before. So, love your body now, and let boudoir photography help you see just how breathtaking you truly are.
Do you think a boudoir shoot is not for you because you no longer feel sexy or sensual?
This excuse is actually a perfect reason to consider a boudoir shoot.
It’s normal to lose touch with our femininity and sexuality due to life’s many demands, such as work, kids, or health. Having a boudoir shoot can be an amazing way to rediscover your sensual and sexy side, and to love and empower yourself again. It can even reignite the spark in your relationship.
It’s important to note that you don’t have to wear super revealing lingerie if that’s not your style. We can work together to choose the perfect outfit that reflects your personality and makes you feel comfortable and confident.
Many women worry that they won’t look as pretty as the women they see in our posts because they have blemishes, scars, stretch marks, or cellulite. However, the women in our posts also have imperfections. We offer complimentary glamour retouching to smooth skin and conceal blemishes, and we pose you in ways that accentuate your best features while minimizing any insecurities you may have.
How can I build up the confidence to feel comfortable doing a boudoir session?
I completely understand how you feel. It’s common to feel self-conscious and unsure of yourself, especially if you haven’t done a boudoir shoot before.
A boudoir shoot can help you find the confidence you’ve been looking for, even if you don’t feel confident right now. In fact, many of our clients come in feeling unsure about themselves, but after their session, they walk out feeling like a new person! Boudoir is all about empowering you and boosting your confidence. It’s normal to struggle with confidence, but we’re here to help you accept your insecurities and learn to love yourself more. So, if you’re feeling hesitant, remember that a boudoir experience can be a great way to gain confidence and love yourself more.
Can I still do a boudoir shoot if I’m a plus-sized woman?
ABSOLUTELY!
Boudoir photography is inclusive of all body shapes, sizes, skin tones, ages, and relationship statuses. It is not limited to a specific body type or size, as boudoir is for EVERYbody. At Boudoir by RDM Imagery, we firmly believe that the number on the scale is just a number, and we encourage women to love and accept themselves exactly as they are. While we do have a minimum age requirement of 21+, we welcome women of all ages.
Whether you’re single and want to celebrate yourself or in a relationship and want to give a special gift, boudoir is perfect for any occasion.
“A boudoir shoot is an investment, I’m not sure I can afford a boudoir shoot right now”.
Absolutely, a boudoir shoot does require an investment, but it’s an investment that you make in yourself, and you are truly worth it. You deserve to feel confident, beautiful and empowered, and that’s exactly what a boudoir experience can offer. We completely understand that budget is a concern, and we have payment plans available to make it easier for you to invest in yourself.
We offer in-house payment plans that can help you save leading up to your session.
