A JOURNEY IN SELF LOVE
Q & A WITH COURNTEY
WHY DID YOU BOOK A SHOOT WITH DAPHNE AT HELLO BOUDOIR?
I have dealt with a lot of abuse mentally, physically, and emotionally in my life, which has caused me to always think less than of myself. I recently started a journey on learning how to self love and self heal to repair the things that have been broken in me for a long time and thought making myself feel sexy and confident and bold in my own skin would push me to be confident in other areas of my life as well.
WAS THIS YOUR FIRST BOUDOIR SESSION?
Yes
ON A SCALE OF 1-10, HOW NERVOUS WERE YOU BEFORE YOUR SESSION?
9
WHEN DID YOU STOP BEING NERVOUS?
I was nervous because this was my first time doing something like this with people I didn’t know and I was worried about being seen due to being insecure about my body, but they made me feel comfort in my own skin and kept reassuring and affirming how beautiful and bad ass I am. I didn't stay nervous for very long.
DID YOU ENJOY THE PLANNING? WAS IT HELPFUL?
Yes it was great!
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE PART YOUR BOUDOIR EXPERIENCE?
The hair and makeup was my favorite.
WHY WAS THE ABOVE YOUR FAVORITE?
There is something about being pampered by others that always feels like a win. It was so nice to be pampered and feel so beautiful.
GOD MADE YOU THIS WAY AND IN HIS EYES YOU ARE PERFECTION
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT YOURSELF SINCE YOUR SHOOT AT HELLO BOUDOIR? DID ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE CHANGE?
I have stopped allowing people to keep walking ALL over me. I have shown that I have so much self worth. I am still learning my Self Worth. And have gotten rid of toxic people from my life.
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO A WOMAN THAT DOESN'T THINK SHE COULD BE AS BRAVE AS YOU? WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO SOMEONE THINKING ABOUT DOING A BOUDOIR SHOOT?
You shouldn’t be nervous on your self love journey. The things you believe are flaws are not flaws. They are YOU God made you this way and In his eyes you are perfection. We are all perfectly imperfect.
