Ms. C contacted me about a boudoir photo session because she wanted to do something special to celebrate turning 40. Here’s what she said about her experience:

“This is something that I’ve always wanted to do, but I always had an excuse. It was either: I need to lose weight, I’m too old, or I don’t have a significant other. Being a divorced single mom of 3 kinda messes up your self esteem. I then realized, I need to love myself and embrace my beauty my body for what it is no matter what age, and I’m doing this for myself, not anyone else. This is why I decided to gift myself for my 40th birthday (but did it after my birthday because of the pandemic). It takes a lot for us women to get out of our comfort zone and put any insecurities to the side.

My experience the day of my photo session was extraordinary. The second I stepped on the doorstep, seeing my name on the welcome board, being greeted with a smile as soon as the door opened made me feel special and at ease. When I got my hair and make up done, I felt like it was a girls night out. Just 3 girlfriends laughing and talking about life. I felt soooo comfortable. Thank Goodness for the guidance of posing and wardrobe!! It made the photo session so much more easier and relaxed. I never felt rushed.

I was more nervous about seeing the actual product than taking the photos. I was worried that what I imagined in my head was not going to be the same. I was completely wrong. My photos came out more than what I imagined. I cried when I saw them. Tears of joy! They all came out beautifully and perfect. Niki captured my story. The innocence in pink. The sweetness in the wings. The bad ass in the black. The sexiness and beauty in all. I cried because all the insecurities I had made no sense. I truly realized I am beautiful, I am sexy, I am amazing. Thank you Niki for making me fall in love with myself.” ~ Ms. C
