60+ Five-Star Facebook Reviews: Why Women Trust Chicago Boudoir Photography

Booking a boudoir photoshoot can feel like a big deal.

For many women, it means stepping way outside their comfort zone. You might be thinking: What if I feel awkward? What if I don’t know how to pose? What if I don’t like how I look in the photos? What if I’m the one person who just can’t pull this off?

And those are completely normal questions! I get it!

And while I can tell you all about what a Chicago Boudoir Photography experience is like, I think there’s something even more valuable: hearing from the women who have actually done it.

Chicago Boudoir Photography has received more than 60 five-star reviews on Facebook from women who decided to take the leap and book their own boudoir experience.

And I want to share some of them with you here!

“Do NOT second guess yourself! BOOK THE APPOINTMENT, SIS! Liz & her team are incredible and empowering! The experience is for all shapes, sizes and shades ✨️ It’s an explosion of feminine energy that you owe to yourself; you deserve it! 😘”

You Don’t Need to Know How to Pose

This is probably one of the biggest worries women have before their session.

You do not need to practice posing in your bedroom mirror.

You don’t need to know what to do with your hands. You don’t need to know which way to turn your hips. You don’t need to know your “best angle.”

That’s my job!

I’ve been photographing women for more than a decade and specializing in boudoir photography since 2015. I’ve photographed more than 2,000 women, and I will guide you through the entire process.

I’ll show you exactly where to put your hands, how to position your legs, where to look and even what to do with your face.

And if I’m not talking to you about your face, it means that you face isn’t in the photo.

All you have to do is show up!

“This was the most amazing thing I have ever done! Everyone was wonderful and couldn’t make you feel more comfortable and boy they know how to make you feel beautiful ♥️”
— Cheri in a Facebook review of Chicago Boudoir Photography

You Do Not Have to Be “Photogenic”

I hear this all the time: “I’m not photogenic.”

So, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Most of the women who come to my studio don’t think they’re photogenic either.

The women you see on my website are not professional models. They are real women who walked into Chicago Boudoir Photography with many of the same insecurities you might have.

Great boudoir photography is not about finding women who already know how to look amazing in front of a camera. It’s about lighting, posing, expression, wardrobe, styling and knowing how to photograph each individual woman.

You Can Be Nervous and Still Have an Amazing Experience

You do not have to walk into the studio bursting with confidence.

In fact, being nervous is really, really common.

Some women are excited-nervous. Some are what on earth have I gotten myself into? nervous.

Both are welcome here at Chicago Boudoir.

One of my favorite parts of this job is watching that nervousness disappear as the session goes on. Usually, it doesn’t take very long.

You start realizing that you’re not expected to perform. You’re being guided through everything. We laugh. We talk. We take photos. And suddenly the thing that seemed intimidating starts feeling really fun.

Hair and Makeup Are Part of the Experience

Your boudoir session starts with professional hair and makeup right here at the studio.

You can go natural, glamorous or somewhere in between. Professional airbrush foundation and faux lashes are included, and we customize your look to you.

This time is also a chance to settle in before we start shooting.

There’s no rushing through the door and immediately stripping down in front of a camera. You get time to relax, get pampered and ease into the experience.

“I am SO glad I found Liz! My husband has asked me to do this for years and I‘m so glad I finally took the plunge. I felt so comfortable with Liz. I felt like I’ve known her for years. She will make you feel so beautiful, sexy and confident from her wonderful makeup and hair artist she has on site to glam you up to her brilliant craft as a skilled photographer. You owe it to yourself and the one you love to capture the goddess that you are.”

Boudoir Is for Every Age and Every Body

You do not need to lose ten pounds first.

You do not need to wait until you’re thinner, more toned or more confident.

There is no prerequisite body for boudoir. Boudoir Is for Every Body: Sexy Is an Attitude, Not a Size!

I photograph women of different ages, shapes and sizes, and one of the things I love most about boudoir is showing women that they don't have to change themselves before they deserve to feel beautiful.

Your job is not to become “boudoir ready.”

You already are! Let’s celebrate YOU just as YOU are!

Your Session Can Be as Modest or as Spicy as You Want

There is no single right way to do a boudoir session.

Some women love lingerie. Some bring an oversized sweater or a favorite button-down shirt. Some want implied nude images. Some want something playful and flirty. Others want images that feel bold and sexy.

We will create a session that feels like YOU.

You are always in control of how much you wear, how much you show and what kinds of images we create.

You Get to See Your Images the Same Day

One of the best parts of the Chicago Boudoir Photography experience happens after we finish shooting.

You get to see your images!

There is something pretty incredible about watching a woman see herself in her boudoir photos for the first time.

Remember that woman who walked into the studio saying she wasn’t photogenic?

She’s often the same woman staring at the screen saying: “Wait. That’s ME?!”

Yes. It. is. And YOU are fabulous!

From there, you choose the images you love and decide how you want to enjoy them, whether that’s in a beautiful album, as wall art or as a digital download.

“Liz and her staff made me feel so comfortable with myself And help me with my insecurities and made me comfortable so that I could take the special pictures for myself and for my husband. And just a heads up my husband loved it as a secret gift between the two of us. Since I was pushing 50 I want to celebrate myself and this experience was the perfect way to do it.”

Thank you for more than 60 five-star reviews on Facebook!

To every woman who has trusted Chicago Boudoir Photography with her boudoir experience, thank you.

And to the 60+ women who have left us a five-star Facebook review, thank you for taking the extra time to tell others about your experience.

Those reviews help women who are nervous, unsure or sitting at home thinking, Could I really do this? decide to take the leap.

And yes.

You absolutely can do this! You deserve it!

60+ Five-Star Reviews Mean More Than a Number

I am incredibly proud to have earned more than 60 five-star reviews on Facebook.

But the number itself isn’t really the important part.

Each review represents a woman who trusted me with something vulnerable.

She walked through the studio doors, got in front of my camera and allowed me to photograph her in a way she may never have been photographed before.

That trust means everything to me.

It’s also why reviews can be so helpful if you’re considering booking your own session. Don’t just take my word for it. Read about other women’s experiences.

Read what they say about being nervous beforehand. Read what they say about the studio. Read what they say about the experience. And especially read what they say about how they felt when they saw their photos for the first time.
