Mia's Boudoir Experience

When I asked Mia to tell me about her boudoir shoot experience she was quick to reply. Her answer made me feel emotional and I smiled at the thought of how transformative an experience this was for her.

She had been going through a hard time. She hadn’t felt like herself in a while and she had been in a horrible relationship. According to her, THIS photoshoot helped her through it.

Even though she wasn’t in a great place the day of her shoot she felt better by the end of it. It made her feel confident and in control.

In the days following the shoot her confidence multiplied. She felt good about setting boundaries and digging her way out of what felt like a deep hole. 

She got out of her bad relationship and finally started to feel like herself again. She started to feel free. Her photos were a reminder of her strength and her beauty. They brought light to her in an otherwise dark time. 

She never thought she could do photos like these- she never thought she would be comfortable or would even like to see herself. 

She certainly was reluctant at first but then she felt brave for doing it, which made her feel good. It made her feel stronger and strength was something she surely needed.

She found herself a lot more comfortable during shooting than she expected to—she was directed and guided throughout which helped as she definitely didn’t know how to post on her own.

When she got to see the photos she really couldn’t believe that she could look this way. She barely recognized herself in the photos—who was this confident and fiery woman? Oh yes, it was her—she just needed to be reminded of the fire within her.

That was just the start. The effects this shoot had on her was a ripple effect to so many great things in her life. It all started with her feeling empowered and taking a step towards self love, Its quite a journey.
