Overcoming Boudoir Shoot Fears: “I Thought I’d Hate My Photos!”
“The whole process was super easy, and I loved my photos!!!”
– Ms D
Welcome Ms D to the Blog. She, like a lot of my clients, doesn’t like getting her photo taken and had many boudoir shoot fears. It’s one of the most common things I’ve heard in my 13+ year photography career. We all have our reasons: mine is I don’t enjoy the spotlight. I’m more comfortable being in the background, cheering from the sidelines.
When I started my business years ago, I did some research to better understand some of the reasons why it’s a hot button topic for most. Amongst all the psychological reasons our brains, one stood out: we fear we won’t be represented or see ourselves in the way we want. When I transitioned to primarily shooting boudoir sessions I knew boudoir shoot fears would be even bigger. So I made that my mission- create a process that helps women prepare for a photoshoot that will reflect back who they are as they see themselves. Hear in Ms D’s own words if my mission is successful.
What was your biggest concern prior to booking your Boudoir Session? How do you feel now?
I thought that it was going to be hard for me to get in the poses and that I was going to hate my photos since I don’t like taking pictures. But the whole process was super easy, and I loved my photos!!!

Just for the fun of it.
Have you ever done a boudoir shoot before? If so, how does your shoot with Cassy compare to your prior experience?r done a boudoir shoot before? If so, how does your shoot with Cassy compare to your prior experience?
This was my first experience and I want to do more in the future!!
What, specifically, did you enjoy most about your portrait session and why?
How comfortable I was with getting into different poses once I got comfortable.
What did doing this shoot do for your self confidence, self worth, and self image? Tell me your story.
It made me truly see what other people see when they give me complements on my looks. I used to think people were exaggerating but I now see what everyone else sees.
Do you feel your images and the services you received were worth the money you paid? How so?
Yes, it was because the images turned out beautiful. I do wish that I was able to have all of my other photos on a drive along with the ones in my album, but it was worth it.
Thank you so much for choosing me to capture you and reflect that inner and outer beauty you hold. <3
