Weight gain, irritability, sleeplessness… these are all symptoms of stress. No matter what causes it in your life (the kids, the job, the finances), if you suffer from stress you know how it can affect every aspect of your being. It only makes sense that anything that brings you relief is welcome in your world!

What could be better than a photo shoot to unwind? Some might argue that it's absolutely impossible! How can putting on lingerie and getting sensual photographs be relaxing? Well, I'm here to tell you... IT IS POSSIBLE!

By the end of your boudoir shoot you'll have beautiful photos to take home, plenty of laughs, and a lot less stress. Whether you purchase the finished product or not, your photographer will give you an easy-to-follow relaxation routine that can be used in times of extreme stress (like when you're on deadline at work) or for when you just want to feel like a million bucks (like when it's date night).

Stress is awful. It's not just an emotion and often the feeling of stress is completely outside your control. It feels as though you have no control over the situation and that's hard to cope with.

The sensations of stress can be physical and emotional. It's not surprising; we see all kinds of people dealing with stress in different ways, both psychologically and physically. You might feel like you're burning out or that life is getting the best of you. Well, the truth is, we all feel stress and we must find ways to cope with it or we can end up developing mental and physical problems (like ulcers and high blood pressure).

But what if I told you that a boudoir photo session could help? What if instead of looking at your body as an enemy it were turned into a friend who helps to erase the stress? It sounds impossible but there are just some things that have to be seen to be believed!

Boudoir shoots not only boost your body image confidence but they can actually help reduce stress. With a boudoir shoot you'll be able to treat yourself like a queen! You'll get your hair done, your make-up made up, and you'll slip into something luxurious (it doesn't even have to be lingerie!), which will give you an hour or two of freedom from everyday cares. Your photographer will be there pushing your comfort zone, making you laugh, and giving you beautiful photos to hang on your wall.

Why is this important? Because even if your schedule doesn't allow for a full photo session, taking care of yourself is extremely important! Everyone needs some time to relieve themselves and relax (this is referred to as R&R)! A photographer's job is to make sure that you look and feel your very best, so there is no need to put stress on that aspect of it. Take some time for yourself and go have an experience you'll never forget!

Boudoir shoots are not just pretty pictures to put on the wall- they're tools for combating stress! When was the last time you took time out for yourself? With so much responsibility in this world it's hard to say "no" when things come up, but if there is ever a time where saying no is okay... It's now! Every woman deserves the chance to feel like a goddess and rid herself or stress. So make your appointment, and remember... you deserve this!
