Megan’s Testimonial

“Self discovery is the most empowering time of your life, you remember who you are and you become the best version of yourself but what they forget to tell you is, to get to a point of pleasure you must face the pain.” ― Nikki Rowe

Boudoir photos have been on trend for years now.

Many of my girlfriends have done these photos for their husbands. I didn’t decide to do it because everyone else has done it, I wanted to do it as a way to show my new husband I am giving him not only my heart but my body. And why not document this body now before babies and age wreck havoc on it.

My photographer Alessio at Le Chat Noir Boudoir has been great through this whole process recommending what to wear, how to prepare, and answering all my silly little questions. It was exciting to buy some new pieces of lingerie for the shoot. With her suggested list of items in my hand, I headed to some of my favorite shopping spots.

Little interview

How Old Were You At Your Session?
27

What made you decide to book a session?
Originally so I had a gift (photo album) for my fiance on our wedding day

Would you suggest anything to be improved during the photoshoot?
Nope. Loved it all – appreciated the music and heater espeically (made me feel really comfortable and non-awkward)

What were you most nervous about for your session?
Not being flexible enough

How did you feel about yourself before your session?
Good. My fiance often tells me I’m sexy but I never believed it really. I thought of myself as beautiful, fun and kind. But not sexy. Now OH MY GOODNESS, I am so sexy!!!

Describe your experience
I appreciated your advice on which outfits to wear and why. I liked the music because then there weren’t awkward silences. I liked the heater being on! Especially on such a cold and wintery day! I really appreciated being shown the photos as we went. It made me get more into it, knowing that it was going well and I looked good, even in poses that felt strange, haha.

How did you feel about yourself after your session?
I feel so sexy! I downloaded some of the photos on to my phone and I keep looking at them thrughout the day. When I’m feeling bleh, I look at them and I feel on top of the world again! I feel so confident and happy!

How did you feel about yourself after seeing your photos?
What would you tell anyone interested, but maybe hesitant, in booking a session of their own?
I’ve literally already told 6 women they NEED to book with you. You will never be as young as you are now. Capture that youth and beauty! We spend so much time dieting and at the gym, let’s celebrate all that hard work! This was one of the best experiences of my life and I want it for all the women in my life.

Nominate one or more Friends who you want to gift this experience to (please write their full name and email address or phone number so I can reach out to them)
Amy Saker, I haven’t had the chance to debrief fully with her yet! So keen to show her the amazing photos.

How was working with Alessio?
Amazing!!!! I felt so comfortable. There was great trust and respect from the outset. It was just a an absolute joy working with him.

Will you be doing another session?
Oooooh, I don’t know. I noticed you do a maternity shoot. So I might be back with you in a few years…

What do other women say about their Boudoir Sessions?

With my love for boudoir, I could go on for hours about why every woman should book a session. The best part is you don’t have to just take my word for it. Check out some of these amazing testimonials and live videos from clients who’ve had the experience!

Boudoir style photography was something I've always wanted to do and I finally acted upon that wish and booked in a session. It started with a phone call to Alessio who was just so friendly, guinuine and answered all my questions. Next came all the informative and helpful guides leading up to the big day. I felt prepared on the day and the photoshoot itself was so much fun! Alessio was professional but friendly and made me feel completely comfortable. I recently picked up my album and was blown away by the quality and the photographs themselves. I couldn't be happier with the result!

Meg Rao "A Photoshoot with Alessio is just an amazing experience!"

Alessio was a complete professional the entire time in the warmest, kindest and most respectful way possible. We had fun, we laughed a lot and I felt relaxed and happy as a result. I felt beautiful during the shoot and the photos were absolutely stunning. I love them and I am so proud of them. I could not recommend this experience more, it was so good and I can't wait to do it again!
