Let Boudoir Photography Change The Way You See Yourself

Choosing portraiture photography is a powerful step toward self-discovery, self-expression, and increased self-confidence. Professional portrait photography is an artistic and insightful medium that helps to capture your unique persona and beauty. This art form allows you to create a visual narrative of your life, express your personality, and capture memorable moments in a particular era that means a lot to you. In this blog post courtesy of Brooklyn Boudoir, we'll explore how professional boudoir portrait photography can boost your self-confidence and change your outlook.

Change the Way You See Yourself

A professional portrait session with an experienced photographer can help you see yourself in a new light. The photographer will create an environment where you feel comfortable, relaxed, and confident. They'll guide you through the process of posing and help you to find your best angles. A portrait session is an opportunity for you to explore your personality and showcase your unique beauty. By capturing the essence of who you are, you will be able to see yourself in a way that you may never have before.

Capture An Era

Portrait photography captures unique moments in a person's life. These moments can range from a special celebration to a personal achievement; sometimes, they simply mark a major life change that becomes a turning point. A professional portrait photographer will capture these moments in a way that reflects your individuality and personality. They'll create an image that tells the story you want to tell.

Banish Insecurities

Many people struggle with insecurities about their appearance or personality. A professional portrait session can help you overcome these feelings so you can create an image that is both beautiful and empowering. Whether you've recently had a child or are working on the process of self-love, the act of having your portrait taken can help you refocus your energy into a more positive form.

Unleash Your Creativity

Portrait photography is a powerful medium for personal exploration and creativity. It provides an opportunity for you to express yourself, showcase your unique personality, and experiment with different styles and themes. A professional portrait photographer will work with you to create images that reflect your personality, interests, and passions. This session provides a creative outlet for personal exploration, which can be both enjoyable and empowering.

A Sexy Bride and Kindred Spirit | New York Bridal Boudoir Photographer

I was recently in Boulder, CO for a boudoir photographer’s conference (yes, that exists!). In talking about their client base, one of the other photographers there said something that resonated with me: “I am my client and my client is me.” I, of course, welcome all women and believe that a boudoir shoot is for everyone. I also believe that the way to have your best boudoir experience is to find a photographer that you really connect with.

Truthfully, I didn’t predict that Ms M and I would have gotten on so well. This woman is PUT.TOGETHER. I feel *mostly* put together most days but next to Ms. M I (frankly) felt like a mess — she is a #BOSS who wears heels to work and is definitely not shy expressing her sensual side (RESPECT). She has smooth, tan skin, perfectly manicured nails and eyebrows, and is juggling A LOT (as we New York women do) with style. She lives in a big, beautiful home in Long Island, which is where we had our shoot. She was planning the wedding of her dreams and I was, quite frankly, a bit intimidated of her.

But (and here’s where I have to pat myself on the back) Ms. M IS my woman and she and I got on amazingly! We love the same designers, including the one who designed her wedding dress (swoon!). We spent the entire shoot gabbing, laughing, and just having the best time. I know I must be doing something right when I can attract like-minded women like her. Our shoot was a wedding gift for her long-time beau and finance and I am so looking forward to the chance of photographing her again (said fiancé has already put in his request) ;)

I love how we captured Ms. M’s softer side with white lingerie and a veil as well as her saucy side with thigh high boots, a fishnet bodysuit and leather crop top. It’s aaaalllllll about variety and Ms. M wore all her looks so.damn.well.

A few words from Ms. M:

Stephanie was just simply amazing! I felt so comfortable and never felt so comfortable in my own skin! From the minute she walked in with her bubbly energy I felt I knew her for years. I’m so happy and pleased I found her and chose her. My pictures are so amazing because of our instant connection. Get a photographer that brings good energy from the minute she walks in, be you and let yourself go !! The results will boost your self esteem and your significant other will truly appreciate your beauty so much more - you will too.

When you have a Brooklyn Boudoir Experience, you and I will get to see each other at least 3 times — at your shoot, at your photo reveal and when you get your products. We also spend time emailing and talking before the shoot so that before we even meet, we have a relationship. It’s so important to me to get to know my clients, because a personal relationship and a good rapport is the best way for me to capture authentic portraits and the best way to ensure your photos embody your style & the vibe you are going for. I want my clients to be happy first and foremost so I want to get to know you! For me, it’s not a “one size fits all” experience, because a boudoir shoot is a personal thing.

I never know who you are going to meet in this business and I love that. Would Ms. M and I have met otherwise? Probably not. But I am so so happy we did and smile every time I think of her, her STUNNING wedding, her puppy and the fact that both she and her new husband were so happy with their images.

THANK YOU, Ms. M for making me a part of your dream wedding and for a relationship I know will last a long time - I can’t wait to photograph you again!

xoxo, Stephanie
