In a world that often imposes unrealistic standards of beauty and perfection upon us, it's easy to lose sight of our true selves. We find ourselves constantly striving to meet these external expectations, forgetting that the most important journey we can embark on is the one that leads us back to our own authentic essence. So, who do you want to be? It's a question worth exploring, and boudoir photography can be your powerful tool to unlock the answers, empowering you to embrace your unique beauty and strength.

This was a truly empowering experience for me. I went into it for my husband, knowing he was always asking me for pictures of myself. I wanted some really gorgeous pictures for him that showed him a side of myself he has always said I have, but I never really believed in. After the photo shoot, I was a believer. I can't thank Shalista enough. I feel so much more confident about my body. I still am way too hard on myself, but I take one look at my husband looking at me in a picture, and I really know for certain that is what he has always seen when he looks at me. It was really good for our marriage.

What was supposed to be an extra special anniversary gift for my husband - something to maybe put a little youth and spunk back into our 15 year routine - turned into one of the most empowering thing I have ever done for myself.

I never could have imagined that to be the case, but what a gift it ended up being for ME!

I will do it again someday. Maybe soon, while I'm still on the high of this first one. Maybe years from know when I've forgotten and the 'UNs' have crept back in. But I have no doubts that I will do it again. 

And when I do, it will be for me......

I did this boudoir shoot for a wedding gift for my husband-to-be! Excited and nervous are the two words I would use to describe how I was feeling before this shoot. I think those words are pretty accurate feelings for a lot of the girls out there before a photoshoot. But during the session, Shalista changed my emotions to feeling sexy, confident and super comfortable! I cannot tell all you girls enough how amazing this experience was. Shalista tells you exactly what to do and how to do it. She helps you with every arm, hand, hip, butt and foot placement along with exactly how to look and where. 

If you ever had even a slight thought about doing a boudoir shoot, stop thinking and book a session with Shalista now! I am so glad I decided to do it and I haven't stopped telling my girlfriends about it. I am so excited to see my pictures and I am even more excited to show my fiancé on our wedding day. I know he is going to absolutely love them!
