Reclaiming Your Sexy in Midlife: My Interview on Let’s Talk Midlife Crisis 🎙️

How Boudoir Photography Helps Women in Midlife Reclaim Themselves 💖

I recently had the absolute pleasure of joining Ashley & Traci on their podcast, Let’s Talk Midlife Crisis — a fun, honest, and inspiring space for all things midlife, menopause, and moments of pure mayhem.

We dove deep into why midlife is actually the perfect time to step in front of the camera for a boudoir photoshoot and how the experience can be transformative, healing, and yes… a little bit spicy.

Here are some of the highlights from our conversation:

💃 Boudoir Isn’t Just About Lingerie

  • Boudoir is about capturing confidence, power, and personality.

  • Every shoot is fully guided — from wardrobe to posing — so you never feel awkward or unsure.

  • You can choose from light & flirty, dark & moody, or a mix of both to reflect your vibe.

✨ Sexy Is NOT a Size

  • You do not have to lose weight or “wait until” to book a shoot.

  • Sexy is a vibe, not a clothing tag.

  • I see women of all ages, shapes, and sizes — from 20 to 70+ — owning their beauty in front of my camera.

💗 A Midlife Boost Like No Other

  • Midlife often comes with body changes and shifting identity.

  • Boudoir can help you reclaim the parts of yourself that you may feel have been lost — or discover something completely new.

  • My studio specializes in working with women 40+, helping them see their wisdom, strength, and beauty reflected back at them.

📸 What Happens During a Session

  • Pre-shoot phone call to chat about your goals and ease any nerves.

  • Full professional hair & makeup (just show up fresh-faced and we’ll do the rest).

  • Wardrobe styling — bring your favorites or choose from my studio collection (yes, even giant Victoria’s Secret–style angel wings 🪽).

  • Guided posing so you feel confident every step of the way.

  • Same-day photo reveal — you see your unretouched images right after the shoot so you can appreciate your beauty in real time.

💬 Myths We Busted

  • Boudoir is not “just for brides” — it’s for any woman who wants to celebrate herself.

  • You don’t need to “prepare” with a diet, bootcamp, or makeover — just come as you are.

  • Being “photogenic” is not a magical gene — it’s about the right lighting, posing, and photographer.

🎯 Why You Shouldn’t Wait

“If there’s something you want to do — like a boudoir photoshoot — do it now. You’ll be glad you did it today, not in five years.”

Midlife is the time to take risks, say yes to yourself, and celebrate the life you’ve lived and the chapters ahead.
