Ms W’s Boudoir Empowerment Session / Austin, TX / Boudoir by Erin
I am a 41 year old mom and wife who is too busy for self care. I didn’t think I was sexy enough for a boudoir photo shoot and boy was I wrong! I have been following Erin for almost two years and I am so thankful I finally took the leap, it’s an experience I will never forget.
How did you first hear about Boudoir by Erin?
I found Erin from a FB post a year or so ago
Why did you decide to book a boudoir session? What made you go for it?
She put out a call for models For her new Austin studio and I thought if she picks me it was a sign!!
What did you think boudoir was before hearing of Boudoir by Erin?
I had been researching before I found her so I was pretty familiar with what it was going to be like.
Did you have any obstacles or fears about doing a boudoir session?
YES! I was terrified to do it because my body wasn’t where I wanted it to be and I didn’t see myself as sexy.
How did you feel leading up to the morning of your session?
I was sooooo nervous/excited, I couldn’t eat or sleep the night before.
What was your first impression when you arrived at the studio?
Right when I walked in I felt the excitement and my nerves started to fall away.
What did you think of your hair & makeup?
I was in her Austin studio so I didn’t get to have Jaimee, but the girl who did my hair and makeup was great and listened to what I wanted.
Did you have any thoughts during your session?
I was thinking that this was so exciting and I couldn’t believe I was actually doing it!!
How did you feel leaving the studio after your session and viewing your images?
I felt so empowered and sexy, something I haven’t felt in a decade! Erin knows her stuff and she captured such amazing photos, I couldn’t even believe that was me I was looking at.
What products did you purchase?
I didn’t purchase any of these from my modeling session, she actually gave me 10 images which was awesome! I am already booked for a session in her McKinney location in a few months and plan on purchasing one of the albums.
Did anything surprise you?
I think I was surprised at how I wasn’t ashamed to show all my goodies, even when we did nude pics! I think it’s because Erin makes you feel so relaxed and cheers you on the entire time.
What would your advice be to other women who haven’t booked a boudoir session?
Just do it! I promise you won’t regret it! And when she tells you to stretch before your shoot she isn’t kidding, I was actually a little sore the next because I didn’t stretch like she told me to.
Did anything change about the way you see your own beauty/sexuality/sensuality/body confidence as a result of this session?
This definitely changed the way I see myself! I feel more confident and I love my body more, even if I am not as skinny as I thought I wanted to be. My husband was blown away and told me that now I can finally see myself the way he sees me, a beautiful strong confident woman!
Why would you suggest someone else book a session with Boudoir by Erin?
Erin is the BEST! From the second you meet her you feel like family. She will guide you through the entire shoot and she is amazing at what she does!!
What would you say to people who say they can’t do a boudoir session because they are too shy, nervous, etc?
Carpe Diem, you don’t know what life will throw at you. You don’t know what will happen, just take the leap and do it! You won’t regret it I PROMISE.
Anything else you would like to share?
I can’t thank Erin enough for this experience, what she does for women is so amazing. Every woman should do this at least once in their life!! Thank you Erin.
