When a potential boudoir client recently told me, "I'm just an ordinary person," I couldn’t help but reflect on the power of that statement. It's something I hear often—a common hesitation that so many of us share when it comes to embracing our beauty in front of the camera. But here’s the truth: there is no such thing as ordinary in the world of boudoir.
So, to anyone who feels like they don’t fit the mold, let me reassure you: You are more than enough.
The Beauty in "Ordinary"
The word “ordinary” carries a lot of weight. We often use it to describe something that’s plain, average, or unremarkable. But when it comes to boudoir photography, that couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, it’s the “ordinary” moments, features, and personalities that make boudoir photography so powerful.
Every woman who walks through my studio doors in Lafayette, Louisiana, has a unique story. Your story, your personality, your quirks—those are the things that truly make you extraordinary. Whether you think of yourself as “ordinary” or not, the reality is that you are a one-of-a-kind individual with beauty, confidence, and strength that deserves to be celebrated. Boudoir photography is all about recognizing that beauty, embracing your authentic self, and seeing yourself through a lens of empowerment.

Celebrating What Makes You "You"
It’s natural to feel a little self-conscious when considering a boudoir session. We live in a world that often sets unrealistic standards for beauty, and it’s easy to feel like we don’t measure up. But the beauty of boudoir photography is that it’s not about conforming to any standard—it’s about capturing you as you are, in all your raw, unfiltered glory.
When I ask someone what’s holding them back, I hear a lot of self-doubt. “I’m not like those models,” or “I don’t have the perfect body.” But what I want you to realize is that boudoir photography isn’t reserved for the "perfect" people you see in magazines or on social media. It’s for every woman, no matter her size, shape, age, or background.
In Acadiana, women from all walks of life have found the courage to step in front of the camera and celebrate themselves. Boudoir is for the strong, the soft, the bold, the shy—the real women who often go unnoticed in the hustle and bustle of daily life.
In every session, I aim to help my clients see themselves from a new perspective. The focus isn’t on perfection but on celebrating the beauty that is already there, often hidden behind insecurities and self-criticism. No one is ordinary when they allow themselves to step into their own power and embrace the confidence that comes with being truly themselves.

The Power of Confidence
It’s a common misconception that boudoir photography is about looking “perfect.” In reality, it’s about how you feel. The confidence that comes from being photographed, celebrating your body, and showing up authentically is nothing short of transformative. And when you allow yourself to embrace the experience, you might just surprise yourself with how extraordinary you truly are.
Boudoir photography can be a journey of self-love. Many women come into their sessions nervous, uncertain, and unsure about how they’ll look on camera. But almost every time, the moment they step in front of the lens, something shifts. There’s a spark that ignites within them. They begin to feel empowered, radiant, and undeniably beautiful. And when they see the final images, it’s often a moment of revelation: I really am beautiful. I really am enough.
"I grew up just wanting to be liked and accepted by everyone…After awhile, I didn’t know who I was anymore, just trying to go with the flow… and after getting a taste of the beautiful life that I DESERVE, y’all are CRAZY to think I’d want to be anyone else but who I am NOW!! I’m EXACTLY where I need to be!!"
