Let’s talk about confidence – that slippery, elusive thing we think we’re supposed to just have by now.

From a young age, we’re taught to believe that confidence is something you’re either born with or not. And as life throws its jabs – comparison, judgment, trauma, expectations – it chips away at whatever we thought we had.

But here’s the truth:
Confidence isn’t a birthright. It’s a muscle.
You build it. You earn it. You create it by doing things that scare the hell out of you, and proving to yourself that you’re capable anyway.

And yet, so many women tell me:

“I want to book a boudoir session, but I have no confidence.”

To that I say: GOOD.

Because this experience?
This is where that changes.

The Confidence Myth

Somewhere along the way, we were sold the lie that we need to feel confident first in order to take the leap. Whether it’s showing up in front of a camera, starting a new chapter, or putting ourselves first – it’s easy to believe we’re not ready until we feel more secure, more beautiful, more “enough.”

But real talk? That feeling doesn’t just magically show up.
Confidence is the result, not the requirement.

You do the brave thing first. You say yes before you’re ready. You show up scared. And in the process, you become the version of yourself who is fearless and radiant.

Boudoir Isn’t About Being Confident – It’s About BECOMING Confident

Every single woman who walks into my studio brings her own version of insecurity. And yet – every single one walks out standing taller, smiling wider, feeling lighter.

Because boudoir photography isn’t just about photos.
It’s about healing your relationship with your body.
It’s about reclaiming the parts of you that you have silenced.
It’s about proving to yourself that you’re worthy now, not 10 pounds from now.

When you book a boudoir session, you’re not just capturing beauty.
You’re breathing life into it.

So If You’re Saying “I Want To, But I’m Not Confident Enough…”

That means you’re in the perfect place.
You don’t need to come in with confidence.
Just come in with a little bit of trust in me.
Take my hand. Trust the process. Let me show you what’s possible when you stop waiting for permission and start choosing yourself.

Confidence will come – but only after you take the leap.
