Fayetteville TN Boudoir Experience with R

How did you hear about Whitney Browning Boudoir? : I had a friend that had introduced me to Whitney's FB group. Once I started seeing the images and reading the posts, I felt empowered by the women Whitney was photographing. The images and group has made me realize that self-love and women empowering women is so important.

Why did you choose Whitney Browning Boudoir for your session? : I was impressed with all of the images I had seen posted on the group page and loved how she was able to capture tasteful boudoir photos. I also love the group connection of building women up no matter age, size, build, etc. Everyone is made to feel beautiful & worthy.
I had made it a Bucket List item. So, I was ready to take the plunge.

What were your fears coming into the session? : That I wouldn't like my pictures or they wouldn't be as "good" as those that I see posted all of the time. My boobs are too small. My "muffin-top" is going to show in the pictures. I have a list of things that I don't like about my body and self image is a struggle. I feared Whitney would look at me and think she really had her work cut out for her today.

Did those fears come true? : Absolutely not. By the time we got through hair & make-up (the most make-up I have ever had on) by Tabbatha and a couple of Mimosa's down, I was ready to get upstairs. I was a little nervous at first, but Whitney quickly put me at ease and I had no problem "baring all" pretty soon as I tried on several pieces of lingerie to decide what I would wear for the photo shoot. Whitney walked me through every pose and made sure I knew exactly what she wanted. It was like we actually really knew each other.

What was your favorite part of the experience and why? : If I had to pick one part of the day it would be trying on all of the lingerie and deciding which to wear for the photo shoot (or what not to wear). But the whole day was amazing! I never take a day off work - just for ME! As a mother of three, my life is consumed with work, kids stuff, more kids stuff, and a little sleep. So having a day to be pampered was wonderful. From the hair & make-up, to the lingerie, to photo session, lunch, and photo reveal. Whitney gave me a day that I felt like a queen, I felt like I mattered, I felt sexy, I felt like I was the top priority, - these are all feelings that most women want to feel.

How did you feel DURING your session? : Total comfort with Whitney and it was so much fun - even walking around in my birthday suit! The complete session was fabulous. Whitney was patient telling me exactly how to position for each shot, making it a wonderful experience. She quickly put away any doubts I had about my body image. It was an empowering day.

How did you feel seeing your images for the first time?: I was in awe! In love with all of the images … especially the nudes! And the red, and the robe, and the navy, and the black..... I loved them all! Whitney is great at her job and it shows in her work. I was scared going into this that I would not have beautiful images like those that I see posted all of the time, but I was completely blown away!

Do you feel like you have a better relationship with your body since your session?: I do! Boudoir pictures started out as a "bucket list" item for me when I scheduled. As time drew near me to have them made, I realized that I was more nervous about them as women are always in fear of being judged. I am a 45 year old mother of 3. I have battled the scale. But, it's not always about the scale. Boudoir pictures helped me appreciate the beauty of a woman's body & shape, of my body and shape and how it has served me.

What will you do in the future to show yourself some self-love? : 2020 is the year of self-love for me .... starting with this session- and going forward, when I look in the mirror I'm appreciating the curves and not being so disgusted with all the booty. I'm vowing to not be so hard about #'s on a scale and to appreciate what my body has done for me. Appreciate the scars and stretch marks - they tell the stories.

Would you ever do another session?: Absolutely - I told Whitney I would love to do it again!

Do you have any advice for women interested in booking a boudoir session?: Do it! You will not regret investing this time & money in yourself. It's a magical day. From the time you walk in the studio, you will feel like a queen for a day with Tabbatha's expertise in doing gorgeous hair and make-up and then working with Whitney upstairs in a bomb photo session. You will feel super sexy and empowered! Whitney really makes you feel totally comfortable and at ease. Women need to see themselves in their own beauty. This is the best gift you can give yourself. Live a little & go for it!
