How to Overcome the Fear of Booking a Boudoir Session
How to Overcome the Fear of Booking a Boudoir Session
Your cursor hovers over the “schedule” button, your heart racing with a mix of excitement and fear. What if I didn’t look good in the photos? What if I feel awkward? What if I'm not “ready” yet?
Sound familiar? If so, you’re not alone, Mama!
So many women tell me the same thing—they want to do a boudoir session someday, but something holds them back. Maybe it’s body insecurities, fear of judgment, or simply stepping outside their comfort zone. If you’re in that space right now, I see you. And I want to walk you through the very real, very normal fears that come up before booking—so you can move past them and step into something incredible.
Fear #1: “I’m not confident enough for this.”
I used to believe confidence was something you had before doing bold things. But the truth? Confidence is something you build by doing them. You don’t need to feel fully confident to book a session—you just need to trust that you deserve to feel amazing in your own skin. Boudoir isn’t about showing up already confident; it’s about choosing to show up for yourself despite your hesitations.
Fear #2: “I need to lose weight first.”
If I had a dollar for every time a woman told me, I’ll book when I lose 10 pounds, I wouldn't need to be a photographer anymore haha! But here’s the thing: Your beauty isn’t waiting on a number on a scale. The version of you right now—the one who’s been through so much, who shows up for her loved ones, who deserves self-love just as she is—she is worthy of acceptance.
Fear #3: “I don’t know how to pose.”
Guess what? You don’t need to! That’s my job. During your session, I’ll guide you through every single pose, down to the placement of your fingers. We’ll laugh, adjust, and create magic together. No experience required—just a willingness to show up for yourself.
Fear #4: “What if I don’t like my photos?”
This is a big one. But here’s what I’ve seen time and time again—women walk into their session feeling unsure, and they leave glowing. When you see yourself through the lens of someone who sees your beauty, it shifts everything. And if you don’t love every single photo? That’s okay, too! We’ll work together to create images that capture your essence, and I promise, you’ll walk away with images that make you feel proud, strong, and absolutely stunning.
Fear #5: “I don’t have a reason to do this.”
Here’s a little secret: You don’t need a reason! Boudoir isn’t just for brides, anniversaries, or milestones. It’s for you, because you deserve to celebrate the woman you are—right here, right now.
Fear #6: “Is boudoir really worth the price?”
I get it—boudoir is an investment. And when we’re used to putting everyone else first, it can feel extravagant and unnecessary to spend money on ourselves. But let me ask you this: When was the last time you invested in something that made you feel incredible about yourself?
A boudoir session isn’t just about photos—it’s about confidence, empowerment, and seeing yourself in a new light. It’s an experience that stays with you long after the session ends. And unlike trendy clothes or a fancy dinner, these images are forever.
Plus, I offer flexible payment plans to make this experience accessible for every woman. So if pricing has been holding you back, let’s talk! I promise we can find a way to make it work—because you deserve this.
