Boudoir Photos



Recommended Posts

Figured the powder Room was a good place for this....

As a WTG gift to myself, I've scheduled a boudoir photo session next week with a really amazing photographer. I've seen many women on this site list this as a reward for themselves-- I thought this was a brilliant idea... Something to make you feel beautiful and sexy--- but now I just feel nervous. haha. I'm wondering how Ill explain that I don't want to accentuate my batwings or loose skin??? lol

And now I've been practicing my "sexy face"... Yeah, not so sexy. lol

Good luck to me!

Hmm maybe try parting your lips -- just ever so slightly? :)

If you feel sexy, it will show through the lens. As far as your imperfect areas.... let the photographer know. He/she will work around it.

Good luck and enjoy! :)

I'm a photographer, and my suggestion is to be YOU. The lens does not lie. If your photographer is a good one, he/she will direct you. Don't worry, enjoy it. Good luck!!

I've been a portrait photographer for years and I say absolutely do it!

Maybe see if you can grab a cup of coffee with your photographer before the shoot to discuss any concerns you might have. Just be honest about what worries you might have then talk about what looks you want to go for. Some women also find it's easier to have a female photographer for boudoir too.

Good luck! I'm sure you will rock it. The best thing you can wear is confidence.

I did this a month or so ago. It was fun and the pictures turned out beautiful. I did tell the photographer I did not want a close up or any kind of photo that would show my "wings". It all turned out good. I was really uncomfortable during the session but the photographer was really good at putting me at ease. I recommend this to anyone!

My shoot is in just a couple hours and I'm more excited than nervous... Which is great! I just plan on having fun now. :)

Eek!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
