I decided to share Ms. L’s story because she really gives you an inside peek on the whole experience! Hear what she had to say!
“A few reasons made me choose Karen!
First, I loved her photography style, as there was variety (outside, in a studio, etc) but also so simple, sexy, beautiful, and classy at the same time.
I also really appreciated that she used PayPal Credit as a payment plan, which I had not seen any other Boudoir Photographer offer. All other Photographer’s required full payments at once, which can be difficult for some.
Last, Karen was the only photographer I could find who also provided a free phono consultation, which when feeling vulnerable, is exactly the kind of comfort and support you need from your photographer!”
“I was both excited and nervous. I had never done something like this before, and I am also a reserved person. I rarely dress in ‘sexy styles’ and so the thought of doing so in front of a stranger, and in front of a camera, was quite scary! That being said, Karen’s process of telling you how many outfits to pick, a private Pin-Board just between you and her to collaborate on, and also knowing she had outfits as well, helped make the process much more comfortable.”
“I’d say my favorite part was seeing the photos! During the photos, I was surprised with how comfortable I felt. Karen truly loves her job, is easy to talk to, and is empathetic and patient with her clients. Her excitement and passion, helps you to also feel excited and proud of your own body and self. I was possible more nervous to see the photos than while taking the photos! But once I saw them, I was in shock that they were even me. I had never seen myself portrayed with such art.”
“I will 100% do this again! Going into it, I thought it was something I’d ‘never’ do. It was ‘for me,’ or so I told myself… but now that I’ve completed the session, I wish it was something I could afford to do more regularly! It was a new experience and I left feeling more grateful for my own-self and body, thanks to Karen” 🙂
When I asked her what advice she would give to someone who was considering a boudoir session, this is what she said:
“Just do it. Don’t over think it, don’t think you need to ‘be’ or ‘look’ a certain way to experience a boudoir session.
There is so much more you will gain from it by taking the risk outside your comfort zone. As someone who is more reserved and a bit “shy” when it comes to feeling sexy, especially under camera, I would do it again and again!
Karen makes sure you focus on you and all your amazingness, just as you are today. You leave having a greater appreciation for yourself, and a whole lot sexier!”
