What is Boudoir?
When people hear the word "boudoir," they usually imagine lace, lingerie, and a little bit of sass. But for many women, boudoir photography has absolutely nothing to do with being sexy for someone else.
Who is Boudoir for?
boudoir isn’t for one “type” of woman. It’s not just for the bold, the toned, or the confident. It’s not something you earn after losing weight or finally feeling “good enough.”
