Shoshoni wanted to book a boudoir session but she nervous and suffers from anxiety and she just couldn't leap until she found Hello Boudoir Studio. Hello Boudoir is a very transparent studio. We like to share who we are and what we do. We enjoy showing behind the scenes on our sets and our shoots. Transparency makes it easy to imagine being there for your shoot. It makes it easy to research my South Alabama Studio. It makes it a comfortable safe space to leap. And that's what Shoshoni did. She waited and watched and read every review and then she booked her big day. This is Shoshoni's story in her own words.
SHOSHONI'S BOUDOIR STORY.
WHY DID YOU BOOK A SHOOT WITH DAPHNE AT HELLO BOUDOIR?
I was looking into boudoir, crazy interested in doing a shoot, when I found Daphne and Hello Boudoir. I saw her work, talked to her on the phone, and lurked on the Facebook group. After talking with Daphne and spending time in the group, I knew I had made the right choice. Daphne makes you feel amazingly comfortable from the very start and she immediately becomes your biggest cheerleader.
WAS THIS YOUR FIRST BOUDOIR SESSION?
Yes, this was my first shoot.
NERVOUS? HOW NERVOUS 1-10?
Easily a 10. I was insanely nervous. I suffer from anxiety and this was a huge step out of my comfort zone.
WHEN DID YOU STOP BEING NERVOUS?
I honestly stopped being nervous the moment I stepped into the studio for my shoot. By the time we were doing the first set, I was completely comfortable. Daphne is so sweet and it feels like you’ve known her forever.
DID YOU ENJOY THE PLANNING? WAS IT HELPFUL?
The planning was awesome! The guides make it so easy and kept me from overthinking things too much. And knowing I could turn to Daphne if I needed additional help was amazing.
SEEING THOSE IMAGES WAS HONESTLY LIFE CHANGING FOR ME.
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE PART YOUR BOUDOIR EXPERIENCE?
THE BOUDOIR SHOOT WAS MY FAVORITE. All caps!
WHY WAS THE ABOVE YOUR FAVORITE?
It was so much fun! It was easy to let go and just have fun! The dress up! The amazing sets! It was all amazing and it’s kind of hard to actually pick a favorite part!
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT YOURSELF SINCE YOUR SHOOT AT HELLO BOUDOIR? DID ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE CHANGE?
Did anything change? Yes! I had little to no confidence before my shoot, but seeing those images was honestly life-changing for me. I actually have confidence in myself now. I’ve found it easier to step out of my comfort zone and try new things now.
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?
It’s okay to be scared—I was terrified—but it’s worth it. Take the leap of faith and do it. You won’t be disappointed at all! Daphne is amazing and there every step of the way. You’re already brave and beautiful, but a shoot will help you see it. We don’t always see what’s already there, so we need the reminder sometimes. Love yourself and go for it!
WHAT COULD WE DO BETTER? IS THERE ANY PART THAT FELL SHORT OF YOUR EXPECTATION?
Everything was perfect! I still stop to stare at my pictures and grin goofily when I think of shoot day. It was an amazing experience and I can’t wait to do it again!
