When I first met Bri, her energy was contagious. She walked into her session with a mix of excitement and nerves, but I could already tell she was going to be a natural inside my studio. Now, after her experience, she’s here to share her story—and let me tell you, it’s a good one!
At 23, she describes herself as someone who loves shopping, spending time with her boyfriend and friends, and—of course—catching up on sleep (because, priorities!). But when it came to booking a boudoir session, her reasons were deeper than just wanting pretty pictures.
“I’ve always loved getting my picture taken, ever since I was a little girl. But more than that, I wanted to experience what it was like to get all dolled up and feel amazing in an outfit I loved. I know what it feels like to struggle with body confidence, but over time, I’ve learned to embrace and love myself. And this session, it made me feel even more confident than ever!”
Bri’s Boudoir Journey
The Pre-Session Excitement
Of course, every big moment comes with a little nervous energy. But she told me that preparing for the session was a breeze.
“Ashley, you made it so easy and stress-free! You laid everything out for me, so I knew exactly what to bring and what to expect. That made me even more excited because I wasn’t overwhelmed or unsure—it was smooth and fun from the start!”
The Session: Nerves to “OMG, I LOVE THIS!”
Walking into the studio, the nerves were still there, but that changed pretty quickly.
“At first, I was a little nervous—I mean, I’d never done anything like this before! But, OMG… LOVED, LOVED, LOVED IT. Seriously, this was the best thing I’ve ever done! About halfway through, when you showed me a sneak peek, I was like, ‘OHHH okayyyy, I am FEELING MYSELF!’ I didn’t even want to stop taking pictures after that! And let me just say… Ashley is THE ultimate hype girl. I don’t think I’ve ever felt more confident!”
Total Confidence Boost: Seeing the Final Photos
Even after the session was over, Bri was still feeling all the things and had a big confidence boost.
“I already knew my photos were gonna be 🔥 because of how amazing Ashley is, but when I actually saw them? WOW. I shared my experience with my friends and told them they HAVE to do this. Whether you’re working on building confidence or you already love yourself and just wanna take it to the next level—THIS. IS. IT.”
And the moment she saw her final gallery, Bri experienced a total game changer! This was the boost she was hoping for.
“I didn’t realize how refreshing it would feel to see myself like this. It made me love my body even more. It’s one thing to feel good in the moment, but to have photos that capture that feeling forever? Priceless.”
Would She Recommend a Boudoir Session?
“I can’t even put into words how amazing this experience was with Ashley. If you want to have fun, feel yourself, be hyped up the whole time, and maybe even make a new bestie—Ashley is the way to go. I absolutely adore her and everything she does. The way she hypes you up, makes you feel beautiful, and is so passionate about what she does… it’s just everything.”
Oh, and she’s already planning another session…
“I’m SO ready for round two. And next time? I’m going for even more flirty pics if you know what I mean.”
Why You Should Book a Session
I think as women we often times put ourselves on the back burner and we forget that self care is so important. It’s natural to want to put others before ourselves, but boudoir is a chance to do something for yourself. For you to get that spark back and to realize you deserve to feel empowered. Bri’s boudoir experience is an example of how transformative a session can be.
