I used to love sending photos to my BF but now it just feels overwhelming. Thanks for the reminder that we can just take these for ourselves, too!

There's a bit that goes into taking a good photo, I get it! Yes, it can be a good body positivity practice. 🥰

I've been in a bit of a self re-discovery process for the past few years.

It started with money, but I think it's definitely linked to self-image and self-confidence. Over the past few years, I've learned to purchase clothes that flatter me and make me feel amazing.

When I saw these photos, something in my heart glittered. I'm pretty afraid to try this, but mostly I think it's because I'm afraid of myself. What it would mean. I'm a "good girl." But there's definitely a part of me that would be so excited to try this. And, of course, send the photos to my husband. ;)

Thank you for sharing your story and recent trajectory, Renee! It's fascinating how your focus has evolved over time. What you're talking about is skill that will serve you well the rest of your days.

I'm so glad that you heard the call from your heart! Boudoir is such an exercise of self-confidence and sensuality! As a recovering good girl, I can definitely empathize. Think of it as trying on a new archetype for size. What would it be like to embody a sex kitten? A bad girl? Even just for an hour or two. Maybe you'll like it, maybe it will spark something in you. The perk with boudoir photos is that you can then tantalize your husband with them! I'm sure he'd be thrilled.
