Vancouver plus size boudoir
Vancouver’s top plus-size boudoir photoshoot and why You should try it
No matter your shape or size, you are welcomed here
Plus Size Boudoir – what is it?
Boudoir photography is known for empowering folks to embrace their bodies and explore their sensuality, and that is always the goal at our Vancouver Boudoir studio regardless of your shape or size.
This entire concept of “plus-size” is so confusing to say the least, so I went digging for more information around what it even means to be “plus size”
My conclusion: all these definitions have been created to control us and keep us feeling like we are not beautiful, so f*ck them, let’s take the power back, together!
One of the reasons I started to offer boudoir in my Vancouver photoshoot studio is I came to see through my own experience, how truly transformative and liberating this type of experience is. A boudoir photoshoot can help build your confidence, and remind you of how beautifully badass you are,
in the skin you are in.
If you’ve always wanted to have a boudoir photoshoot, and you identify as plus-size, this blog post is for you!
I will answer all your questions and help you see why no matter your shape or size, you will be welcomed in my Vancouver Boudoir studio with open arms!
But first, I want to to please turn the volume up on this message and repeat after me:
my body is deserving of being celebrated as it is without changing
a damn thing!
Feel good? Awesome, let’s dive in!
Why have a Vancouver plus size boudoir photoshoot?
Let me guess, you have wanted to have a boudoir photoshoot for quite some time, but you are nervous, and concerned about finding the right studio that will celebrate you for who you are, as you are. Well my friend, let me share a few reasons why I think you should come in for a boudoir photoshoot with me!
1. Boudoir is a confidence booster
One of the most common things I have heard from previous clients after their photoshoot is how the felt so dang confident! The idea of being in front of a professional photographer, often in minimal clothing, can bring up all the nerves and feelings of intimidation, I’ve been there! Once you are here getting into the groove, the time will pass and your focus will go from feeling nervous to feeling on top of the world in all your glory!
The excitement continues when you see the final images and witness the grace, beauty, and power captured in each shot, it can completely shift your perception of your body and your self-worth.
Plus-size boudoir sessions highlight your curves – not hide them! Your final boudoir photos will reveal the strength and beauty in your body that may have gone unnoticed for years, I know you may not believe me now but the proof will be in the photos. The final result is not just a set of photos—it’s a reminder that you are worthy of love, celebration, and admiration as you are.
2. It’s an act of self-love and body liberation
In a world where beauty standards are narrow and restrictive, plus-size boudoir photography stands as a powerful act of body liberation. Plus-size boudoir challenges the notion that beauty only comes in a specific size or shape. A plus-size boudoir photoshoot is a proud declaration that all bodies are worthy of love and attention, no matter their size.
By participating in your own boudoir shoot, you are saying yes to embracing your body—so called ‘imperfections’, and all.
Taking that bold step in front of the camera is about recognizing that you are more than just your size and that your worth is not determined by the number on the scale. Can I get a heck yes!!!
3. Boudoir is a celebration of your sexuality
One of the things I say like a broken record is this: boudoir photography isn’t just about how you look; it’s about how you feel, and let’s be honest who doesn’t want to feel sexy af! A plus-size boudoir photoshoot allows you to reconnect with your sensuality without shame or judgement.
It can be hard to feel sexy in a world that is constantly shoving things and messages in our faces to make us feel like we cannot be sexy unless we are a certain size, what a load of BS that is!!! This experience can, and will, help you reclaim your sexuality on your terms, allowing you to define what makes you feel sexy.
4. Plus-size boudoir challenges toxic beauty standards
Challenging beauty standards is no easy feat, but it fires me up and gets me so excited to know that together with my beautiful clients we are out there showing that all bodies are beautiful, worthy of love and adoration.
I truly believe that by participating in plus-size boudoir photoshoot, you’re helping to challenge harmful societal beauty standards that prioritize only certain body types, certain skin colours, and a very heteronormative look – but not here!
More and more, the world is recognizing that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, and you can be part of this change by showing up not only for yourself, but also for others, inspiring them that accepting our bodies as we are is indeed possible.
I feel so grateful to be part of a growing movement of amazing humans out there celebrating body diversity and inclusivity, giving the middle finger to toxic beauty standards, one badass boudoir portrait at a time!
5. It’s super badass, need I say more?!
Seriously though, taking time out for yourself to explore your sensuality, honour your body and love on yourself is pretty damn radical, because as we have already covered we are always up against toxic beauty standards that are trying to keep us all down. I think it’s pretty badass to say f*ck it, and allow yourself to be witnessed as a full expression of yourself, taking up whatever space your heart desires!
Ready to book your Vancouver plus-size boudoir photoshoot?
Friend, let me say with ALL MY HEART that I truly hope that you will be accepted here in my studio, as you are! You don’t have to change a damn thing about yourself, you don’t have to feel like you need to hide parts of yourself and you don’t have to worry about being judged.
My goal as a photographer is to help guide folks towards accepting ourselves, all while smashing toxic beauty standards one beautifully badass portrait at a time!
My own mother really struggled with her body image, always on yo-yo diets and never feeling beautiful or good enough as she always felt ‘fat’. Growing up as a kiddo this broke my heart, and I would sit on the sidelines watching her, sad and so wishing she could see what I saw in her. She passed at the young age of 49 to breast cancer, and while I was never able to help her see what I saw, I used those lessons and turned them into an opportunity to help others see what they may be missing in themselves.
What do you say, are you ready to join me on this mission? I’d love to welcome you into my studio.
