Miss A

What inspires a woman to work with a photographer can vary. Usually, there’s a connection or relationship already in place that helps build a level of trust and respect. Sometimes, it’s random or a spur of the moment decision. With the lovely Miss A, we had the pleasure of knowing her before she scheduled her boudoir session.

She would always say she wanted to see us in action, and that we’re an “uber-talented rockstar photographer.”

Now, her chance behind our lens was finally happening.

Her reason for wanting a boudoir session was because she wanted to regain some of the feminine energy she feels she lost due to building both her business and her family.

“My oldest son moved away for college, so I could really use something special and fun like this to lift my spirits,” she shared before her shoot. Not only did we want to bring out her inner femininity and highlight her favorite features like her legs and shoulders, we wanted to make Miss A love other aspects of herself as well, like her feminine curves!

She shared with us that she covers up her décolletage and booty, thinking both are saggy, flabby, and small, but we’re here to say that ANY physical trait can be made attractive and appealing. It’s all about the angles. For Miss A, looking good and feeling good go hand-in-hand. “If I’m all dressed up with full makeup and hair, I usually feel pretty good about myself. I need to work on still feeling beautiful, even when I’m not all dolled up,” she said.

We couldn’t wait to bring more of that feminine energy out during her session!

We checked in with Miss A when we noticed her confidence and energy start to pick up. Her playful spirit was visible in every frame, which we absolutely loved. According to Miss A, our “spunky energy and amazingly warm nature” truly made her feel comfortable and helped her loosen up on the set.

“I feel more like a bombshell!” Miss A said at one point during the shoot. We had shown her some still images from our camera, and she was shocked to see just how good her “assets” looked on camera. She learned that being sexy is a state of mind, and it’s possible to look and feel that way, even when one is being playful and laughing.

There were times during the shoot where we’d pause and take a quick break, and at one of those moments, we were able to address some of what was coming up for Miss A. Being sexy and feminine all the time can be hard work for any woman. There’s a perceived “standard “definition of what those words mean, but that doesn’t negate what one singular woman’s definition may be.

Miss A had some insecurities about being “feminine” on a regular basis, but this shoot made her think about what that really means to her and how she can do more things to feel that way. She also learned new ways to showcase what being a WOMAN means, and that its’ more than just being a mom, a wife, or business owner.

By the end of the session, there was this sense of peace with Miss A, like she had reclaimed her femininity in her own way. In her words, “Every woman should do this for herself at some point in her life to renew her confidence.”

Thank you, Miss A, for letting us help you reignite your unique femininity and individuality!
