3 Reasons to Book a Boudoir Shoot | Austin Boudoir Photographer

Girls, let’s be honest: it’s all too easy to talk ourselves out of good things. Especially good things that feel risky.

Here’s some truth: booking boudoir is always going to feel risky.
We’re always going to have a thousand reasons why we should “wait”.

And listen, maybe you do need to wait. You know what is best for you.

But maybe... you’re just nervous. There’s just some unknowns holding you back. So let me share 3 reasons TO book a boudoir session from someone who literally walks women through this process all the time:


  1. The way you see yourselves changes. Get this...after shooting a boudoir session, you start to see a different side of yourself. Even on days when you feel like garbage, you know there is this powerful, sexy, incredible side to you that can surface any time she damn well pleases. You can’t “unknow” that shit.

  2. On shit days, you have tangible proof. We all have days where we feel like a super-monster-gross-o-crappy-person. Sorry to put it so blunt, but that’s how it feels! On those days, you can flip through your pictures and it’s an instant relief. It’s honestly just a practical tool to not get stuck in crap mindset mode when you’re feeling gross.

  3. To find yourself again. Here’s the honest to god truth: life trips us up sometimes. Maybe you’re going through a transition….having a baby, getting a divorce, changing jobs...it can feel unsteady. Boudoir images are not just about sexy pictures. They are a time to get quiet. Breathe. Center yourself in the stillness. It’s one of the most powerful ways I’ve seen women step back into their own during a life transition. I’m so honored I get to be a part of that honestly. 


I could go on, but those are my top favorite reasons to get a boudoir session booked. So if you’re weighing if this is the right move for you, remember to factor in these powerful reasons alongside all your doubts and fears.
