Sometimes when we enter a new phase in life, we go all in. We consume ourselves with the details of that role and perfectly nail it. And to have a singular passion is beautiful and noble. We as women always fully commit to a profession, family position, community, etc., and are the cornerstone of society. But sometimes we get so involved that we forget we can be more than just one thing. Miss K loved being a mother, but wanted to be more than just a great mom. Read her client testimonial below to see why she chose to book a boudoir session.

“I wanted to do something not just for myself, but also something that I typically would never do. Initally fear held me back… insecurities held me back… I chose, however, to overcome those feelings and just do it. The feelings did not go away, but I didn’t want the negative voice to overpower the positive one.

I’m actually coming into my own and my confidence as I get older, but for me, it was the pressure of being a mother. Mothers aren’t typically viewed as sexy… our bodies change after carrying babies. Additionally, we have the societal expectation to behave and carry ourselves in a certain way. I’m finding myself only being a mom these days. All the choices I make involve my kids, and many of the activities in which I participate pertain to or involve the kids. I want to be a great mother, but I also want to be more than that!

I no longer want fear or doubt to stand in the way of opportunities that allow me to grow, become more confident, and create awesome memories. The opportunity to take some great pictures AND display them for others to enjoy (not hoard them for myself or hide myself) became the appeal for me.

The [Boudoir by Ria] experience was so much more than I expected. I did not expect to feel so comfortable, confident, and sexy. Having the photoshoot and viewing the pictures afterward, I’m on a high! I felt my chest puff out a little further, my chin went up a little higher, and I stood a little taller.”
