When we get nervous, we tend to make excuses why we aren’t worthy of an experience we want. There are SO many reasons why we “can’t” do a boudoir session for ourselves. However, I am here to BUST those excuses right out the door. The reward of a Boudoir Experience outweighs your excuses BY FAR. You are so worthy of loving yourself.
“I don’t have time”
We can’t pour from an empty cup. I am sure you’ve heard that before, but are you practicing this? Carving out time for yourself is absolutely essential to living a well-balanced and fulfilled life. Once your kids are grown, it is important to know you didn’t lose yourself on the way. Take time for your mental health, and you and your family will thank you in the end.
In reality, a Boudoir experience is just a day. Easy enough to drop off the kids to school, or a take a personal day at work and have a relaxing day FOR YOURSELF. You’re going to find that you have so much more to give when you’re fulfilled and confident in yourself. By the way, did you know that confidence that you’re going to gain is going to carry into MANY other aspects of your life? Want a raise? What better time to ask your boss then when you’re feeling unstoppable. Want more time in the bedroom with your partner? Take control, girl!
Something that fills my cup every day is seeing posts in our VIP group of women just like you supporting eachother, venting, sharing funny stories, and even getting together for events. Let us fill your cup— join us!
“I need to lose X weight before I schedule a session”
Okay, I am just going to stop you RIGHT THERE. I am about to blow your mind with this fact. Did you know that the “ideal” body time that is often portrayed in advertising is only naturally obtained by 5% of American females?? FIVE. PERCENT.
Stop comparing yourself to bodies we see in advertising and social media. Likely these images are heavily photoshopped, posed and unrealistic. Besides that, we heavily focus on doing a session as you are right now. Bodies are ever-changing. And we like it that way. Our bodies are magical and accommodate and change for the seasons we are in. That is really special and often overlooked. (Imagine your skin not being able to stretch to make room for your growing pregnant belly! That would be extremely painful. So when I see stretch marks, I am so grateful for their beauty and what comes out of them!) We are not going to let a number on a scale determine your worth.
If you have some health goals you want to achieve, awesome! Make sure you’re doing it in a healthy way. But remember, we can be here to document you as you are NOW, and also when you lose that 20, 30, 40lbs + as well.
“I am not confident and I don’t know how to pose…I am definitely not a model!”
This is EXACTLY why you SHOULD do a session. The amount of confidence you will build from doing a Boudoir session is pretty amazing. Some of us may have lost the spark on the way (maybe an abusive relationship, trauma, becoming a mom, or just simply not putting ourselves first). Can you relate to any of that?
Our private, all women’s VIP group on Facebook is filled with women JUST LIKE YOU!
“I have nothing to wear. I never wear lingerie.”
Fun fact, ME EITHER. I actually don’t own any lingerie personally. However, we have FULLY stocked the client closet at the studio. Our client closet features sizes X-small through 5X. So if you can’t find an outfit that inspires you, we totally have you covered. And if lingerie is simply NOT your thing and you don’t want to wear lingerie, but want to feel sexy, we can chat about ideas to do that as well. How about just jeans? Or a white tank top and cheeky underwear? A boss babe blazer with heels? A leather jacket? A jean jacket with a bodysuit?
“A boudoir shoot is expensive.”
Your Boudoir session IS an investment, that is true. However you deserve to invest in yourself. Your mental health and confidence boost will thank you later. Our studio offers 0% interest payment plans that are personalized for your unique needs. When you schedule in advance, you have more flexibility in your payment as you have longer to make payments ahead of time. When you schedule your session, we will chat about details or you can send us an e-mail with questions to hello@niceboudie.com
