Q: Tell us a little about yourself!
A: “I’m a single momma of three beautiful little women! Ava - 4, Anya - 1 & Ariella - 2
months. I work full time as a medication aide.”

Q: What makes you feel beautiful and feminine?

A: “This is a really hard question for me. This photoshoot I did with Billie made me feel more beautiful & feminine then I ever have… because it’s been so long since I have cared for myself. I’m always caring for my kids, & they make me feel beautiful of course when they tell me how pretty I look even when I know I’m a hot mess from being at work. Their words of encouragement are heartfelt and wonderful! But it was nice to dress in pretty lace and put make up on for once!”

Q: What were your thoughts before booking a Boudoir session with Billie?

A: “I’ll be honest, I woke up that morning excited… but did not want to go. I kept thinking of the millions of things I had to do at home, and that Monday was the only day I had off for another four days…I needed to do the dishes, do the laundry, and care for kids. I didn’t want to push it off on my mom, so I could go be pampered for a day.. How selfish is that! Incredibly selfish… but I told myself you won’t regret it if you go… you will enjoy it…this will be something fun and you NEVER DO ANYTHING for yourself. So I did!”

Q: How did you feel when you saw your photographs for the very first time?

A: “There isn’t even a word, in the English language that could possibly describe the way I felt! I was, mesmerized, shocked, happy, emotional...was this really me? Am I seeing myself for the first time because it sure fees like it! I am glowing! I am radiant and beautiful, and I can genuinely say that, I am freaking fabulous.”

Q: What was your favorite part about the whole experience?

A: “The positive environment, the laughing, Billie showing me the pictures on her camera after she had just snapped the picture, saying,” girl you gotta look at this you’re gorgeous!” Instead of just being strictly there trying to get the job done & move on to whatever else she had to do, she took time with me. She made me feel gorgeous inside and out with her helpful coaching & constant encouragement of how wonderful I looked!”

Q: What do you say to anyone thinking about booking a session?

A: “JUST DO IT! I have already had two sessions! Don’t even question it! Do it for you & no one else. I can’t even begin to describe how, much this has helped me, feeling low & just down and out.. this whole experience made me love ME again. And that is so important. Billie literally coached me through everything from outfits, every position, from your toes, to your legs, to your arms and hands. She will literally help you in every way when it comes to posing for these photos, you don’t have to be a model. You will never ever, wake up one day and regret doing a boudoir session with Billie… I mean, really… you’ll wake up and question it everyday if you don’t do it. I can promise you that after taking the chance and loving yourself just enough to put yourself out there and do this, you will forever be grateful.”

So, you were probably thinking you were going to come to this blog post
and it would list 101 things NOT to do at a boudoir session. You wanted
to make sure that you were well prepared for your future session with
Boudoir by Billie… Read on.

When I was a young girl, I remember
standing in line at the grocery store with my mom staring at the
magazine covers. “WHAT NOT TO WEAR”, “Don’t make this #1 makeup
/wardrobe mistake”, “How to lose 10 pounds in 10 days”, “Get skinny for
summer with this insane diet trick”… and the list goes on. and on. and
on. Now, that’s not the only place I saw things like this. Televisions,
commercials, the radio.. They were engraved into the back of my mind
that very moment. Am I sparking any memories for you as well?

Growing
up as an overweight withdrawn computer-nerd, I was desperate to fit in.
I looked to my mother and siblings for advice and guidance because they
were my definition of perfect women. I always wondered why I didn’t
have the “perfect” skinny body or look like the women on TV and in the
magazines at the grocery store. I grew up being teased for my weight
daily and once I got old enough to realize that it wasn’t okay.. I
started to try and spread happiness to other women instead of the hate I
had experienced my whole childhood. I found my deep love for boudoir in
the last few years and it has been nothing less than amazing.
Seriously.. It has stole my heart completely. Boudoir by Billie is all
about uplifting each other and celebrating our bodies.. Just as they are
in this moment. And I am so glad that YOU are here on this journey to
celebrate with me. Thank you.

Well, you’re probably wondering what NOT to do at a Boudoir session… You do NOT need to lose 50 pounds or even gain 50 pounds. You do NOT need to hide your body or your
beautiful curves. You do NOT need to hide your stretchmarks, bellies or
bumps. You do not need to wear something 2 sizes to big to hide behind.
Your breasts are fine just as they are. Your booty IS big enough &
good enough for a Tush Tuesday shot. You are NOT too thin to look good
in photos. You do NOT need to worry. What you should do is love and
praise your body, which is one reason why you are booking a boudoir
session in the first place. Embrace every inch and remember that your
body is what gives you life. You breathe, walk, talk and exist on this
earth because of your beautiful body. Without your body, that carries
you, you would not be here with us. You are perfect. I promise.

Boudoir for every. body. Let me help capture your sexy, feminine side.
Celebrate YOU. Contact me to book your very own boudoir session.

Q: Tell us a little about yourself!

A: I work overnights at a hotel, which makes for a lousy
social life but an easy job. Since I work so late I don’t usually have a
reason to dress up very often, you can usually find me cozy in a
t-shirt on the couch, with my boyfriend and my doggie.

Q: What makes you feel beautiful and feminine?

A: Of course being dressed up, hair and makeup done makes me feel feminine, beauty is a different story. I have always loved my features but felt undervalued in that aspect. I owe a lot of my self confidence to my boyfriend for helping me see that beauty in myself, when he looks at me, I can see in his eyes how much he means it. Just as these photos did, He makes the flaws I see in myself disappear, he brings out the beauty I feel inside, with him I feel like the most beautiful person in the world. :)

Q: What were your thoughts before booking a Beauty & Boudoir session with Billie?

A: I was really excited about doing this session, I had never had professional photos done before, I spent weeks shopping for the perfect lingerie! When the day came I was pretty anxious/nervous because I’ve never seen myself in this way from another persons perspective, but as we started I came crawling out of my antisocial shell, into a woman I never knew I could be!

Q: How did you feel when you saw your photographs for the very first time?

A :My breath literally caught in my throat when I saw them, I just was at a loss for words. All I could do was smile and stare at myself. I can honestly say this is the best I’ve ever felt about myself! Struggling with an awkward maturing body most of my life I have never even felt comfortable enough to wear a swim suit, but after this session my confidence is soaring so high, it may never come down again! Billie has made a very, very vain lady out of me.. ;)

Q: What was your favorite part about the whole experience?

A: My
favorite part of the shoot was the energy in the room, Billie is so
professional and friendly and so brilliant in her skill, there was
absolutely no point where I felt weird or uncomfortable. I was
unapologetically myself, and so at ease!

Q: What do you say to anyone thinking about booking a session?

A: To anyone booking a session, you will not be disappointed, I mean the photos speak for themselves (she an absolute genius at what she does) but with Billie you get the full experience; confidence, comfort and professionalism. A fun and beautiful experience I will never forget!

Q: Would you be interested in doing another session with Billie?
A: I will definitely be going back to Billie for ANY future photos!

Be bold. Be sexy. Be beautiful.
