● Have you ever done a boudoir shoot before? If so, how does your shoot with Studio E compare to your prior experience?
I had never done a boudoir shoot before. I have seen ads for it before, but I never followed up.
● Why did you do your boudoir shoot?
I have always been a “big girl” and since I was young I remember people telling me that I needed to lose weight. I have always wondered why I needed to change to fit others perception of what I should look like. I love who I am. I love what I look like. I know that sounds crazy to many people, but I believe that I am gorgeous. I wanted to show off a little. I wanted to have fun showing off my body in a way that I normally don’t do. I don’t make a habit walking down the street with my ass showing and my nipples peeking through the lace… I wanted a fun way to show off how beautiful I feel. So I did a boudoir shoot.
● What was your favorite part of the session?
I really enjoyed being put into these very sexy positions. When Eric and Julie were telling me where to stand or put my hand I had an idea of what I looked like and I knew these would look amazing.
● What did doing this shoot do for your self confidence, self worth, and self image? Tell us your story.
I actually told a lot of my friends that I was doing a boudoir shoot and they all responded with “No! Don’t do it!” So I had to ask them why I shouldn’t and they all said something along the lines of “You are already too confident. Please don’t. It will go to your head.” I had to do the shoot after that. I wanted something so that on those days when I do not feel very confident or sexy, I can look at myself and remember that I am gorgeous. I am brave for walking into a room with close to nothing on. And I am a badass.
● Was your experience what you were expecting? If not, how was it different?
I honestly had no idea what to expect. But I loved the experience.
● What was the best part of your experience? Would you change anything?
All of it! But I loved looking at the backdrops and the sets. They were all so fun and I love the flower wall!!!!
● Can we tell your story as you wrote above?
I will be sad if you don’t.
