You Will Be Proud for Expanding Your Comfort Zone plus Find It’s Totally Fun & Freeing

You probably don’t get photographed by a stranger in your lingerie very often. So, it’s understandable if you’re hesitant about your first maternity boudoir photo session! But, once we get started, you’ll realize it’s not as scary as you may have thought - it’s actually a ton of fun and totally freeing. You’ll expand your comfort zone and enjoy the thrill of trying something new as your body confidence skyrockets! And as your body is proving that it can do incredible things, you can prove to yourself that you truly can do anything badass, bold and beautiful - like a boudoir maternity photoshoot.

You Will Celebrate Your Body

During pregnancy, your body is growing and experiencing many rapid changes. For some, this is totally daunting - but don’t let them get you down, though! You’re growing a human being, and that’s an incredible thing.

Throughout our boudoir photoshoot experience, we’ll celebrate your beautiful body and gorgeous new curves. Even if you haven’t appreciated the changes (yet!), you totally will admire and love yourself in ways you haven’t before- and be thrilled you took the time honor yourself and your body in this special time. Just as my other clients have said, you’ll leave our session with so much self-love and insanely high self-esteem! Plus, you’ll have treasured keepsakes to remember your body after pregnancy.

Boudoir maternity photography will help you (re)discover and (re)connect with your own sensuality. Look back on your photos from our session to remind yourself, or share them with your partner to remind them!
