Gratitude: Negative Nancy to Positive Peggy
Thanksgiving is right around the corner, what better time to reflect on all that we should be grateful for? A few weeks ago our guest blogger, Jes Lyn, wrote about how much practicing gratitude can change one’s mindset. I have to be honest, I haven’t been able to get it out of my mind! If you need a refresher, check out our most recent wonder woman article “Messy to Mindset Master” to learn more about her story.
Upon further investigation, practicing gratitude benefits not only our mental health and emotional intelligence, but also our physical health. . .
Thank You!
We had so much fun at The Boudoir Studio’s Debuting Party last week! We were able to catch up with some returning clients and welcomed more women into our Roc Boudie Tribe! Our Onyx bedroom was definitely a favorite among our guests! After taking some fun photos in our photo booth, we all settled into the Boho room to look through albums and check out the slideshow. Our veteran boudoir clients talked about how and why they have done a boudoir session. It was so great to re-connect with our clients and get to know some new faces!

Wonder Woman: Messy to Mindset Master
What is a Wonder Woman? She is so much more than just a guest blogger. . . she is opening up the world to her story of challenges and regrowth. Jes Lyn is no stranger here at The Boudoir Studio, she has done 2 boudoir sessions, a fitness photoshoot, and a branding session for her new business! Her inspiring story takes us through how she has overcome a difficult relationship, put an end to partying, is now managing multiple businesses and finally mastering her mindset.

Our Most Memorable Boudoir Moments
One of my most memorable boudoir photography moments is when a client of mine described me as a gay bestie to my wife during a PhotoShop (reveal) appointment. I don’t think anyone could’ve paid me any higher of a compliment than that. What’s amazing is that she. . .
Domestic Violence Awareness Month
Nearly 1 in 4 women have experienced severe physical violence from an intimate partner during their lifetime. Young women between the ages of 16 and 24 experience the highest rate of intimate partner violence — almost triple the national average. Violence against women is not limited to socioeconomic status, race, age, or cultural background. 4 million women each year are subjected to abuse committed by their male partners, intimate partner violence is defined as “a pattern of assaultive and coercive behaviors used to establish power and control over another person whom an intimate relationship has been shared”.
Healing after domestic violence is a lifelong journey of recognizing destructive behavior in one's self and in others, letting go of wrong placed guilt, forgiveness and listening to one’s intuition. Some of our own clients here at The Boudoir Studio have booked a session as a way to reclaim their power that was taken away by their abusers. Asif shares his personal story of how boudoir can be used as a tool for healing:

Baring it all for feminism and empowerment
Is it possible for a feminist to also participate in a boudoir session?
A close friend asked me this months ago as I had accepted my blogging position here at The Boudoir Studio. Honestly, it flustered me to give her an answer that would satisfy her curiosity and also hold me accountable for my own woman empowering values. If you were to ask Google, “does taking off your clothes empower a woman?” the short answer is no. However, in my own boudoir experiences, both assisting sessions and being in front of the camera, my answer would be yes. Perhaps it is an unpopular opinion. . . but I know that for some women, there is no better way to own your space, be proud of your body and to encapsulate that feeling forever than to be photographed nude.
Trying to Find the Balance: Working Parents
Did you know that September 16th is National Working Parents Day?
We missed it and I am sure that you did too.
This is because being a working parent is tough and there seems to be no time to stop and celebrate the parents who are trying to bring home the bacon while trying to raise decent human beings!
This week, The Boudoir Studio tackles the challenges of finding the balance between work life and family life. Finding the balance can be through trial and error or just learning how to perfect the juggling act. Check out each of our personal stories.

Mom Self Care- What is that... does it even exist?
Back to school season is here! You may be wrapped up in the hustle and bustle of scavenger hunting for school supplies and adapting to new routines. During this season, quite often a mom’s sanity is forgotten on the back burner. If you were to ask yourself, what do you do to take care of yourself -emotionally, physically and spiritually, what would be your answer?
I can already tell that you are drawing a blank.
This week, all the moms at The Boudoir Studio reflect on our own self-care routines to help remind you to, well… take care of yourself!
Wonder Woman: Missy's Transformation
If you have had a boudoir session with us then you know. . . the experience is much more than just posing in front of the camera. Most of our clients are at the studio early getting pampered with hair and makeup, they get to know us and we get to know them. Every single client has been on some kind of journey that ended up with them arriving to us. Whatever journey they are on, one thing remains the same. Our studio offers a safe place for clients to open up about their journey in life and to be absolutely vulnerable with us. . .
Learning to Love my Mom Bod
If someone were to ask you to give up your children so that you can have your pre-baby body back (most days) your answer would be no. So here you are with no other choice but to accept your mom bod. Whether you are pregnant now, had a baby recently or three years ago, your body will never be the same! I am currently struggling with body image issues as I am now pregnant with my 2nd child. All the feelings of inadequacy have already rushed back even though I am barely halfway through pregnancy #2. So what better way to refresh my mind by reminding you and I to love our mom bods!?
Snapchat Made Me Hate My Face!
It is natural to compare ourselves to other people especially when we are immersed in the daily habit of using social media. According to the social comparison theory, we are more likely to compare ourselves to someone who we think is better looking and this negatively impacts our own self-evaluation. However, with the birth of Snapchat, we are now comparing ourselves to the better looking, extremely modified, versions of ourselves. These filters can become addictive and downright damaging to our self-concept and self esteem.
Confessions From the Wife of a Boudoir Photographer
Asif and I have had The Boudoir Studio for about 9 years and over the years, he regularly gets asked, “Is your wife ok with you doing this?!?” Well, we decided it was time to put the answer out there, for everyone to hear, directly from me. Here is my story about it’s like to be the wife of a boudoir photographer. . .
I've been living with a secret. . .
For over 9 years, I’ve made a career out of empowering women to accept themselves as they are and to embrace their own strength, confidence and beauty through my photography. It’s a simple message: you are beautiful, you are strong; you are enough. Right now, just as you are. . .
