In a world obsessed with unrealistic beauty standards, it’s time to set the record straight: there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to boudoir. I celebrate diversity in all its forms, especially when it comes to body size.
For too long, plus-size women have been made to feel invisible or unworthy. But let me tell you something: that stops NOW. Your size does not determine your worthiness of feeling sexy, confident, and ability to wear lingerie.
Plus size boudoir (or just regular boudoir for this Orlando photographer) doesn’t adhere to rigid beauty standards but instead celebrates every curve. It’s about embracing your body – every inch of it – and feeling empowered in your own skin. It’s an understanding of inclusivity and providing a safe envirnoment.
How to have a banging experience for your boudoir session:
1) Prepare your mindset
Having a boudoir session should be EXCITING. Come into this with an open mind and TRUST your photographer. You are in good hands here and if you let go of any of the negative unwanted thoughts, you will shine. Flip that negative script of “but what if….” and think about what GOOD could come from your session like a massive confidence boost, throwing a middle finger to fcked beauty standards, and finally feeling like that beautiful home you live in known as your body is worthy.
2) Picking your outfits
I know this can be an absolutely daunting part of preparing..but I’m here to guide you! Your outfit is important because if you feel uncomfortable..it’ll show through your photos. I am a big beliver in one safe outfit and one that makes you feel stretchy! I promise the scarier outfit that maybe is something you’d not normally wear can have the GREATEST outcome. I have a full guide on outfit selecting that you’ll receive that digs deeper and where the best places to shop are. Don’t forget, your closet of every day outfits already likely has some hidden gems you might not think about. (check this blog out for ideas)
3) Hiring the right photographer
Boudoir photography is a very sensative genre of photography and especially when you are looking for someone who has experience in working with curvy women. Make sure you find someone with a diverse portfolio that you can trust with the sensitivies and expertize. Your self image isn’t worth gambling on a cheap photographer who has never photographed curves.
