Why did you want to do a boudoir session?
I think it is important to give ourselves opportunities to get outside our comfort zone to grow…this was definitely outside my comfort zone, and I am so glad I did it! This desire to grow also coincided with wanting to celebrate my husband’s and my 10 year anniversary and my 33rd birthday!!
What made you choose Wallflower?
Choosing a boudoir photographer started out overwhelming, because of my high expectations as I was looking for someone I wanted to feel I could trust based on their websites. As soon as I found Wallflower I felt that trust; I could see the artistry, class, and seduction that confirmed Wallflower was the best option.
Were you nervous at all to do your shoot?
I was nervous, but that nervousness turned a bit more to excitement during the consultation. Once I arrived, although I still had some anxious anticipation, I felt I was in a safe space. From the hair and makeup artist, music selection, authentic conversation, outfit plans, posing directions, and genuine encouragement, I felt like I belonged.
What was your favorite part of the experience?
My favorite part of the experience was: all of it!! I am left with a sense of gratitude that is only possible because it has all been fantastic! (Can you sense my indecisiveness which Christina was phenomenal working with! I can’t choose just one part, truly the whole experience has been amazing!)
What would you tell a friend if they were thinking about doing a boudoir session?
Do it!!!
What was it like to see your photos?
The artistry of Wallflower is awe-inspiring. To see myself as a work of art is humbling and empowering. Through Christina’s experienced eye for details that was shared in direction of how to push into poses, I look effortlessly gorgeous!!
Was everything what you expected it to be when you first got in touch?
Everything I expected and more!! The trust I was able to feel from first impression grew into a confidence during the session, and is now a deep appreciation! Thank you!!
Do you see yourself differently after having your session?
Stretching my comfort zone through this boudoir session affirmed my humanity, integrity, and beauty in a unique way. I am fearfully and wonderfully made and there is now art that shows that goodness and beauty.
