Yes, the thought of doing a boudoir session can be intimidating. Maybe you’re intrigued but afraid of how you’d look, afraid you’re not thin enough, young enough, or hot enough to look sexy. Maybe you’re afraid that a camera trained on your nearly naked body will only highlight the parts of yourself you’re insecure about.
It can be hard to feel good about yourself and your body when the media constantly tells you that you need to lose weight, be thinner, etc. But you are beautiful just as you are, and a boudoir session is a great way to prove that to yourself. Here are three reasons why plus-sized women should give boudoir a chance.
1. Change the way you see yourself.
Boudoir is all about seeing yourself from a new perspective and recognizing your natural beauty that’s always been there. Maybe you’ve avoided being in photos because there are parts of your body that you wish looked differently. But a talented and experienced photographer can highlight your beauty and make you see yourself in a whole new light. As a result, many women leave after the shoot bursting with confidence. Some get emotional during their photo reveal. Others are more aware and learned how to accept their body.
2. Love your body.
When you work with a professional photographer you trust, you’ll be amazed at how great you look. They’ll know how to light you perfectly and direct you into the most glorious poses. A boudoir session allows you to highlight the parts of your body that you love—and maybe even discover a new appreciation for parts of your body that you’ve always felt insecure about. (Psst...many women didn't know they have adorable butt dimples!)
3. Empower yourself and prove your worth.
You don’t have to change your body to look absolutely stunning. You are gorgeous just as you are and worthy of love and respect, including love from yourself. Boudoir can be such a liberating and empowering experience, helping you to embrace yourself for who you are true.
If you’re interested in doing a boudoir shoot, don’t let your insecurities hold you back. Find a photographer you can trust and who will do everything they can to help you see the beauty in every image. Talk to them and check out their portfolio. I am proud to say that The Pin-up Rebels has a diverse portfolio of empowering women of all body shapes, sizes and colours.
