2022 in Review | North Carolina Boudoir
As we come to the closing of another year, I’d like to take some time to look back at the amazing things that happened in the studio (& out of).
I’ve said it before & I still stand by; I have the most amazing clients. From Bridal Boudoir to bringing out that inner badass, the studio has seen so much magic this year.
I’ve had the honor of hearing so many stories of power from some incredible humans over the years, & 2022 was no different. I even had the privilege of having many women as repeat clients for second & third sessions this year!
I was able to truly see what boudoir & a safe space can do for others. I’m not much of a writer, so I’ll just show you some of the master pieces that were created since January & share some words from these babes.
“From the first meeting prior to the shoot, Kayla was so welcoming & gave off the most positive energy. I had no doubt photo shoot day would be the best experience. Through the entire shoot she was SO positive & encouraging. I also greatly appreciate that she took my one concern for the shoot (my facial expressions) & researched breathing techniques & cues to help me give the best expressions.” -Ms. P
“So what made me want to do a session was I had just had surgery and was really feeling incredibly insecure about my body. My love had done a shoot and I loved how her pictures turned out so I decided to give it a shot. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!! Kayla was an absolutely phenomenal hype girl and made me feel SO comfortable and confident the whole time! I was so nervous because of my ostomy bag and feeling so badly about the way that I looked I was terrified that I wouldn't photo well. But Kayla walked me through every step and it was literally the most EMPOWERING thing I've ever done! There was so much laughter, a few tears, and I loved it so much I booked another session this year and I couldn't be happier with my pictures. I felt so beautiful for the first time in a long time and when the reveal came I was blown away by how stunning I was and didn't even know it! I highly recommend doing this for anyone struggling with their own self worth and body image. Put all those doubts aside and just do it! You won't regret it!” -Ms. J

“I loved having a day to pamper just me. We were able to schedule around my crazy schedule and fit it in to my “me weekend” I had already scheduled. I super nervous when I arrived, but Kayla’s calm demeanor at beginning and hype girl for shoot made the nerves go away leaving only fun and laughs at ourselves! I loved my reveal appointment and was so surprised at how much I loved my photos. It was hard to choose favorites, but even with that Kayla was right there with me, coaching me, and helping ease decisions!” -Mrs. J
“I wasn't nervous- which I hear is unusual. I came into this time with a gravity of the personal importance. This was my one shot at capturing my body as it is now and Kayla blew me away in a uniquely therapeutic way. I would not call it nerves, but I had desired outcomes and communicating with Kayla ahead of time helped me be prepared and ready for a life changing day.” -Ms. C
