Perspective – Is yours accurate?
YOU’LL GET TO SEE YOURSELF FROM SOMEONE ELSE’S PERSPECTIVE.
I was looking at a list of the “Top Ten Reasons to do a Boudoir Shoot” and number six really stood out to me. “You’ll get to see yourself from someone else’s perspective.” How often do we get to do that in life? Really get to see ourselves through someone else’s perspective? And how often is that perspective totally positive?
I was working with a woman that had raised several children, gained and lost weight and was older than she used to be (we all are). Her perception of how she looked was her reality.
Let me say that again, “Her perception of how she looked was her reality.” It didn’t matter what those around her said, she still had an overweight mom in her head and couldn’t wrap her head around the fact that she looked amazing to those around her, especially her husband.
In life, what we perceive becomes our reality. It often takes a lot of evidence to change how we feel, especially when it involves personal appearance and our perception of how others see us. Even looking in the mirror won’t change our perception if we have strong enough beliefs of how we look… even when they are wrong.
One of the greatest things that comes from a boudoir session is that shift in perspective. Seeing yourself, after the pampering of working with a hair and makeup artist, in a professionally managed studio setting, changes your perspective.
