On your wedding day you WILL BE the center of attention, the star of the show. From getting ready to walking down the aisle; you will be in front of the camera all day and will have plenty of wedding day images to look back on. But many brides don’t think about another opportunity to step in front of the camera to capture this moment in time: a boudoir session.
There is a side of you that won't be flaunted to your friends and family on your wedding day that is just as stunning and worthy of documenting. For this reason; I truly believe all brides should deeply consider doing a bridal boudoir shoot. In case you aren’t convinced to have one of your own, here are 5 reasons to book a bridal boudoir session. Let's dive in.
1. YOU’RE CELEBRATING YOUR BEAUTY
We all know by now the incredible power of self-love and what it does to our confidence. It’s so wild how many women say, “I can’t do boudoir sessions because I don’t look like a ‘model’, or "I’m not photogenic at all.” I get it, we’ve all been there. This is why I love bridal boudoir sessions because your only job here is to show up and be YOU.
And my job? To bring out the very best in you and help you feel confident in your own skin. As a photographer my job is to first and foremost make you feel comfortable. From there it's working through each pose - there is ZERO guesswork involved. First I will describe the pose, then show you a picture of it, then do the pose myself if there is any further clarity needed.
2. Watching your partners reaction
In addition to being a gift for yourself, your bridal boudoir session can make a really special gift for your fiancé in the form of an album or small prints. Best gifted the night before or the night of the wedding, professional boudoir products will be enjoyed throughout both of your lives. My clients always mention to me how much their partner loved receiving those photos! It’s definitely a surprise they won’t see coming, and a gift unlike any other.
3. Remembering who you are; now and years later
The famous Moira Rose once said, “Then allow me to offer you some advice. Take a thousand naked pictures of yourself now. You may currently think, Oh, I’m too spooky, or, Nobody wants to see these tiny boobies. But believe me, one day you will look at those photos, with much kinder eyes and say, Dear God, I was a beautiful thing." You can only imagine how you will feel when you see these images of yourself 20 to 30 years from now. Having bridal boudoir images will preserve the memories of this moment; how you looked and felt in your prime. The time is now Ladies. Now.
