So, you think you might be ready for your first boudoir photography session, huh? You still have some lingering fear making you unsure if it’s the right time. I understand! That’s totally natural! It’s normal to be nervous about stripping down in front of a virtual stranger who’s going to take photos of you! Here are some ways to help you realize you’re actually ready and the fear is just holding you back!
You’ve found a photographer you want to be friends with.
There are plenty of situations in life that require a cold, clinical bedside manner. Boudoir photography is not one of those. If you’re talking to your boudoir photographer on the phone and you start to feel like you’ve known them your whole life…you might have found… THE ONE.
Okay, I get it! This might not be QUITE as important as finding your perfect life partner, but let me have my dramatics, damn it!
Fear is just one ingredient in your boudoir photography passion cocktail.
If the only thing you feel when you think about booking a boudoir session is fear, you might not be ready. But if you also feel excited, even in the tiniest measure, you’re ready! That little spark of excitement is trying to claw its way to the top of the cocktail, but fear is weighing it down like cinder blocks! If you focus on the excitement, the fear will start to ease.
Your boudoir photographer is practically as meticulous as a doomsday prepper
They’ve laid out exactly what they need from you (your session fee, your signed contract, your first born child), and exactly what they’re going to provide to you (heaps of confidence, badass photos, a rockin’ good time). Do you feel prepared? If you don’t, do you feel like you can ask questions? Make sure your photographer is receptive to questions because you need to be able to feel ready!
It’s okay to be afraid. Feel the fear and do it anyway.
