Featured Boudoir Girl - Miss C

Prior to booking your session with Valerie, what hesitations did you have about doing a boudoir shoot?: 

I've always had a love/hate relationship with my body.. and face! I didn't like the idea of being photographed nearly nude. I am my own worst critic but with age comes a sense of why not? So that's why I thought why not NOW?!

What was your own personal reason for wanting to have a boudoir session? Was your session a gift for anyone special, or just for yourself?:

Something like this has always been for myself... I don't feel the need to showcase my vulnerability for anyone, even my husband. I'm at such a crossroads with my life, being middle aged now, that I just want to feel comfortable with who I am. I've always felt a boudoir photo shoot and seeing the outcome will help in achieving the inner peace I crave.

How did your session with Valerie differ from what you were expecting before entering our studio?: 

I guess I had expectations of feeling sexy, sultry and confident and from the moment I stepped into the studio I felt comfortable enough to feel that. Of course there are moments of self-doubt but it's quickly replaced with a sense of trust that the 'perfect' photo will be captured.

What was your favorite part of the boudoir experience?: 

I just loved Valerie's shared vision of what I wanted to achieve that day. I revelled in the change of clothes and poses... Valerie always made me feel comfortable and it was effortless moving around her boudoir apartment.

Other than beautiful photos, of course, what else did you take away from your boudoir experience? What type of impact did it have on you?: 

I walked away from that day with a sense of confidence I hadn't felt in a while. I realized as I went home that if I can do that..I can do anything really.

Now that you are officially a Boudoir girl, if you could give advice to any woman reading this who is on the fence about booking a session, what would you tell her?: 

Just do it! Honestly it's something that will stay with you and you have the photos and memories to prove just how sexy and carefree you can be.
