"The best thing I've ever done for myself!"
Rita came into the Chicago Boudoir studio with a dream she had held close to her heart for years: to see herself as the confident, beautiful woman she always felt she was on the inside. This experience was a deeply personal gift, a celebration of her journey and the vision she carried of herself. Like so many clients, Rita arrived with some nerves, wondering if she would feel natural in front of the camera or if the photos would meet her expectations. But from the moment she stepped through our doors, those worries began to fade!
From being pampered by our beauty team to experiencing a warm and welcoming environment, Rita’s shoot turned out to be more than she had hoped for—it was transformative. It made her feel empowered, accepted, and celebrated. The session allowed her to step into her full confidence and she was blown away with her final images. Rita is a testament to the power of embracing one’s beauty and worth! Hear her story below!
What Rita had to say about her boudoir experience:
What was your main reason for booking a boudoir shoot?:
It was something I had long dreamed of doing because I always wanted to literally see Rita the way I deeply felt her and saw her in my head.
What was your biggest fear before or during your boudoir shoot?:
That I would have trouble posing in a natural manner without being totally self conscious about it. And possibly that the photos would not meet my expectations.
How did the shoot turn out? Tell us your favorite part about your boudoir shoot experience:
The pictures turned out so beautifully. BEYOND my expectations! I had no favorite part because the entire experience was so wonderful! From being pampered the entire time - from the moment I walked through the door - through my makeup being done so expertly - and the photo session itself where Liz made me feel so comfortable! She took away all my jitters and made me feel beautiful the entire time.
Did you give your boudoir photos as a gift? How have you enjoyed your photos since the shoot?:
They were basically a gift to me and quite possibly the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. I’ve looked at them every day since and been so happy that I took the leap, because the photos and the experience were something I will treasure for the rest of my life.
Is there anything else you'd like to share? Is there anything we can improve?:
Just my profound thanks to Liz and and the makeup artist for making me look and feel so wonderful. I will never forget you and how you helped me make a dream come true! Improve? How do you improve on perfection?
