The Perfect Blend of Boudoir Elegance and Fitness Energy
Welcome, dear boudoir clients, to a world where elegance meets strength, where beauty intertwines with vitality - welcome to the mesmerizing realm of Boudoir Fitness Shoots!
Some background Mrs. C is a Personal trainer, menopause coach and an all round advocate of healthy body and mind. She takes part in multiple competitions annually and trains like an absolute Beast! Surprisingly she confided me she actually suffers with Body dysmorphia and sometimes struggles to see herself as feminine. So she decided to do a Boudoir shoot because she wanted to see herself in a different light.
On first meeting the beautiful Mrs C over Zoom i just knew this shoot was going to be a lot of fun and just a little bit different from my norm. One of the questions i always ask at the consultation is 'What makes you feel sexy?' Without hesitation the reply came "When i'm working out, when my body is looking and feeling physically strong'" then naturally the buts followed 'But i don't want a Fitness shoot, i want something feminine!'
Who's say Strong isn't sexy? Who says feminine means you can't have muscles? It was funny to me that Mrs. C hadn't made the connection that her femininity was exactly what made her feel strong and sexy. So i laughed and said to her we can make Muscles sexy and feminine which is exactly what we did.
This absolute firecracker actually did a mini workout before her shoot began; which just reinforced to me how important her Fitness journey was to her. So why fight it? Why create a shoot for anyone but yourself? Yes ok i used softer lighting but when i said to her "Go on, show me those Guns" she laughed and obliged beautifully (See the image above) and this was actually her favorite image of the whole shoot despite telling me she definitely DID NOT want any muscle poses.
We need to redefine what it means to be feminine! Feminity can be soft, gentle and submissive but it can also be strong, powerful and completely bad ass .Boudoir photography is all about celebrating the beauty of the human body however, when you infuse elements of your true self into your shoot; You not only showcase your physical beauty but also unveil the inner strength and determination that drive you. Each click of the camera captures not just a pose but a story of resilience, dedication, and empowerment. I am sure you will agree that Ms. C nailed it and looks incredible showing both sides of her beautiful and authentic true self.
I'll let Mrs.C sum up her experience for you "You are right-EVERY woman should do a boudoir photo shoot! I'm overwhelmed and so so grateful my darling! I just wanted to say thank u again because since I saw my pics I have had this massive confidence boost and its literally down to you and the shoot!"
