Hey, Gorgeous Ladies!

Happy Spring! Pretty sure I saw my first mosquito of the season yesterday. And believe it or not, that was a gleeful moment. Yippee, summer is coming!

To celebrate, today I’m releasing exclusive details on Summer Boudoir Mini Sessions!

 

But first, let’s get real.

Why do I offer Boudoir? Because I believe every woman deserves gorgeous photographs of herself.

More to the point: To live a healthy, balanced life, we need experiences that both empower & restore us. Often, we’re our own worst critics. We get bogged down with the daily grind, the excuses, and the “I’ll get to it later”s.

For many of us, body image is the big, ginormous elephant in the room. There is too much negativity floating out there, and I want us to turn the concept of “flaws” on its head. In reality, it is those differences (the dimples, the curves, that faint little scar) that are beautifully human. Let’s start celebrating those! If you choose to embrace it, the Boudoir experience can be a game changer.

Boudoir images make a wonderful gift for yourself or another — oftentimes both! Although I completely understand the butterflies that may accompany this experience, I can assure you: Each of my clients leaves her session feeling empowered & radiant. To calm those butterflies, be sure to read the client Love Letters further down!

For a peek into the Boudoir experience, including what to do about those pre-shoot butterflies, check out this blog post.

To experience more of my boudoir work, visit the Bailey Aro Boudoir website.

And finally, you may have questions about how I process my images & where I stand on the issue of airbrushing. If you’re interested in booking a session, this post is a must-read!

If the above speaks to you, then read on for important details & booking info!

LOVE LETTERS

A few authentic words from lovely previous clients!

“Thank you again for a great boudoir shoot, you are fantastic. I was oh-so-worried about anything & everything until I arrived. You do a great job making your clients feel so comfortable! I will surely send everyone I know your direction! I am so so so pleased!”

-Deena

 

“When I decided to do a boudoir photo shoot, I was really nervous about what it would actually be like… What was I going to wear? How would my hair and makeup look? All of those questions and more were running through my mind. I shared my pre-shoot questions with Bailey and she put me at ease right away! She shared an inspiration board with me of ideas for what to wear and assured me that the professionals who would be there to do my hair and makeup would take care of the rest. The morning of my shoot I arrived a few minutes early, and Bailey along with her hair and makeup team were already there. I was greeted with smiles, a mimosa, and a little Beyonce in the background! I had an hour to relax and enjoy my mimosa while the stylists worked their magic. The whole time everyone was so friendly and made me feel really comfortable – Bailey especially. By the time the photo shoot began, the nerves were gone! Throughout the shoot Bailey made me feel empowered and even shared some of her own personal butterflies with me to help me feel at ease. If you are thinking about doing a boudoir photo shoot, I highly recommend having Bailey take your photos. She is truly genuine, and is amazing at what she does!”

“If you are reading this and thinking ‘Should I?’ JUST DO IT. Bailey is the bomb and makes you feel like Beyonce.”
