BOLD & BEAUTIFUL
I am so glad you stopped by! Im going to be completely open and honest with you starting right now through the entire process.
Let's talk about body image and confidence real quick. So many people message and email me wanting to do a boudoir session but say "I am not confident", "I am this size", "I don't feel sexy" and the list goes on.
MEET CHRISTIE
Growing up I was very tiny. I had a very high metabolism which was the death of me. Very awkward and skinny in grade school, then into middle school. This is when pieces of me started to fly away. I was bullied and shamed about my body constantly. Hearing negative comments from fellow classmates and adults. I moved schools in the 8th grade because the bullying got that bad. Spent my high school years trying to gain weight. I was very active in sports so I was thin and in shape but just “too skinny” for everyone else’s liking. I spent my afternoons after school looking up what I could eat or do to gain weight.
The older I got the comments got worse. People asking me if I was anorexic. Telling me to go eat a cheeseburger etc. Every single time someone would say something directly to me or behind my back another piece of me flies away. It blows my mind how much body image and confidence can be completely ruined by others words. Too skinny, too short, too fat, too tall… when will we accept ourselves the way we should? It is hard I know.
I know doing a boudoir session is a lot to take in. You are being vulnerable putting yourself out there. It is hard being in front of the camera. I want to tell you... It is hard for me too. Thats why it is important that I have done it. Do I wish I had bigger boobs? I used to... but now I love mine. Do I wish I had a bigger butt... yep. It is bigger than it used to be but it needs some firming. Do we all wish we had what we don't have??? YES but guess what these are the bodies that God gave us. Its time to OWN THAT! Your husband loves you and loves all the flaws that you hate.
When you reserve a session I will walk you through all the things. We will create a session that makes you feel good. Having hair and makeup done makes you feel like a million bucks. So if you have been hesitant, make the leap.
I love you all. I am here to be real and raw with you.
Let’s celebrate the weight loss. Let’s celebrate the anniversaries. Let’s celebrate the birthdays. Let’s just be sexy and own who we are!!
Much love,
