A Boudoir Experience That Transformed Her Confidence

If you’ve ever thought about booking a boudoir session but held yourself back because of nerves, self-doubt, or feeling like you just ‘aren’t photogenic’—this one’s for you. My recent client, Miss K, had all those same fears, but she took the plunge, and the results? Let’s just say she’s already thinking about doing another session! Keep reading to hear about her Client Spotlight experience and why she says, ‘Absolutely, 100%, without a doubt,’ you should do it too.

Overcoming Self-Doubt: Why K Booked Her Boudoir Session

Miss K didn’t book her boudoir session because she already felt confident—she booked it to feel confident. “I am very insecure about how I look and about my body, so I thought if I did a boudoir shoot and the photos came out well, it would boost my confidence. (It did!)”

This is something I personally hear all the time with my potential clients. Boudoir isn’t just about looking good in photos; it’s about shifting the way you see yourself. Seeing yourself through someone else’s lens—literally—can be the most empowering thing you’ll ever do.

Stepping Out of Her Comfort Zone

Like most first-time clients, K had some pre-session jitters. “It was a little nerve-wracking at first since I had never done anything like this, but after a little bit, it wasn’t as scary.”

That’s exactly why I take the time to guide you every step of the way. We don’t expect you to show up knowing how to pose like a pro—I make sure you feel comfortable, confident, and 100% taken care of. K quickly settled into the experience and started to really have fun with it!

Luxurious Sets & Dreamy Poses

“The most exciting part was being in the rooms I chose to do the shoot in; the beds and couches are gorgeous!” Choosing the right setting is part of the magic. The furniture, the lighting, the ambiance—it all adds to the experience and helps create the aesthetic that makes you feel your kind of sexy. K went with the Lounge option at the Phoenix Studio, complete with a four post bed, brown leather couches, dark walls, and an overall moody ambience.

K also came prepared with Pinterest inspiration (a fantastic idea!), which meant we got to blend her vision with my expertise. The result? A set of photos she absolutely loves.

From “I’m Not Photogenic” to Total Confidence

K admitted she was nervous about posing, saying, “I am not photogenic, nor do I know how to pose, but Miranda told me exactly how to do it.” Let me say this loud and clear: You do not need to know how to pose to book a boudoir session! It’s literally my job to guide you and make you look your best. I’ll tell you where to put your hands, how to angle your face, and even remind you to breathe when needed (seriously, it happens more often that you might think!).

By the end of her session, K felt totally at ease and confident—and it showed in her final images. I tell clients that once they can really start to let down their walls and fully embrace this experience, the sooner they will come across even more authentic in their photos and those always end up being the ones they love most!

“I definitely feel more confident and I like to look back at the photos I chose to purchase.” This is why boudoir is so much more than just a photoshoot. It’s an investment in yourself. When you have a set of stunning images that remind you just how gorgeous, powerful, and badass you are, it changes the way you see yourself every single day.

A Compliment That Changed Everything

“I received a compliment on my stretch marks in one of my favorite photos, that I never even noticed initially. That really stands out and makes me feel better about them.” This moment right here? This is why I do what I do. We are so conditioned to pick apart our perceived ‘flaws’ that we don’t even realize how beautiful they actually are. Boudoir has a way of shifting your focus to what truly matters—your strength, your beauty, and your uniqueness.

If you’re feeling hesitant about booking a session, K has some words of wisdom for you: “My advice is to do it anyway! It’s okay to still do something that makes you nervous. I bet you’ll feel more comfortable pretty quickly, like I did, and then you’ll feel so glad that you went outside of your comfort zone. When you get your photos back, you’re going to feel really happy you did it.”

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Growth happens when we push past fear, and trust me—this is one of those things that will leave you feeling so proud of yourself.

The Transformation: Seeing Herself in a New Light

When I asked K if she would recommend a boudoir session to others, her answer was immediate: “Absolutely, 100%, without a doubt. The shoot was very fun and boosted my confidence. I may even do another one day.”

That’s the thing—once you experience the confidence boost of a boudoir session, it’s hard not to want to do it again! Every session is different, and every time you do it, you uncover something new about yourself. “I’m happy that I was brave enough to do something that I was anxious to do, and I definitely feel better about myself and my body after having done it.”

K walked away from her boudoir session not just with stunning images, but with a newfound appreciation for herself. And that, my friends, is the ultimate goal.

Why I Shoot Boudoir Photography: My “Why” for Shooting Boudoir

Why Boudoir Photography?

What we do here at Le Boudoir Studio is so much more than just photography—it’s a powerful experience and celebration of confidence, self-love, and empowerment. For many of our clients, boudoir is a journey to rediscovering their beauty, learning to embrace what makes them unique, and finding their power in ways they never thought possible.

I honestly never thought I would be doing this for a living, but an amazing opportunity came my way when I was asked to take over the business. I saw first hand when I was assisting in shoots just how transformative this experience is, and the way it changed how women perceived themselves. Soon after, I would start booking my own boudoir shoots, and I’m here to tell you they completely changed my life! If this could have a positive and lasting impression on ME, I wanted every woman to have this feeling, too.

If you sat down with me and asked why I do this, I’d tell you: I want to show women they can become the person they’ve always wanted to be. I spent so many years hating the way I looked, feeling like I wasn’t worth certain experiences or relationships, and holding myself back from living the life I wanted. I don’t want anyone else to waste their time and energy living like that.

At Le Boudoir Studio, I want to show women their potential and give them the tools to start living a more confident and fulfilled life. Every session is about celebrating you—the real, radiant, and powerful you that has been there all along.

The Transformation

The transformation we witness during a boudoir session is the most rewarding part of what we do. When a woman steps into our studio, she might feel nervous or uncertain. But by the end of her session, there’s a shift—a moment when she sees herself in a way she never has before. It’s pure magic.

One client shared:
“I have never felt like such a confident queen in my whole life! I am absolutely stunned by how the pictures came out! It’s a whole side of me I didn’t know I had, and Miranda is so incredibly talented in helping to bring that out and capture those moments.”

Moments like this are why I do what I do. It’s not just about creating beautiful images; it’s about helping women see themselves in a new light. Can you image having more confidence, more self-love, and increased self-worth? Boudoir can be a step in your journey to achieving all of this and more.

A Little Piece of My Story

For those of you who know me, you know this work comes from a deeply personal place. Growing up, I spent a long time battling feelings of insecurity and self-doubt. Learning to embrace my own beauty, celebrate my facial differences, and step into a more confident version of me was a journey that changed my life. I spent so many years hating the way I looked and feeling like I wasn’t worth certain experiences or relationships and I held myself back from living the life I wanted. Boudoir helped me see what other people saw. I literally saw myself in a new way, and now I look back on those photos even years later and they serve as a constant reminder of just how fierce and bold I am!

Boudoir is personal to me, just as it’s personal to you. And I want every woman who steps into our studio to feel that connection—to feel seen, supported, and celebrated. Le Boudoir Studio is a space where women can step into their power and truly embrace their femininity without judgement.

Yup! That’s me at my boudoir shoot!

I was terrified of being in front of the camera growing up. I would either hide my face, or purposely stay out of group shots. I was so ashamed of my cleft lip scars and the changes it made to my face, and now I have no photos of myself to look back on for a long period in my life, which I now regret. Playing dress up with hair, makeup, and fun outfits helped me come out of my shell later in life, and allowed me to put on an “armor” of sorts to face the world in style. Finding Pin Up also helped me discover a way to celebrate my idea of beauty, and its a way of dressing that helps me feel most like myself. (I always get extra excited when someone wants to do a Pin Up Boudoir session!)

Once I had actual professional photos of me taken, it totally changed the way I looked at myself. Now, I do photoshoots all the time! Not for anyone or anything in particular, just because I love the way it makes me feel. Life is just too short to spend it at war with yourself.
