Reveal Your Vixen: T

I have an AMAZING STORY to share with you today! When T came in recently for her photo shoot, she shared with me about how booking a shoot with us changed her life drastically. I was completely blown away by this and you HAVE TO read her story! I always say doing a boudoir shoot is life changing, and T is a perfect example of how. Every woman should truly experience this for herself. I promise it does nothing but GOOD for you in more ways than you can imagine.

Thank you T for not only allowing me to share your lovely photos, but more so for sharing your story with the world. You are such an inspiration to me and countless others. I am SO happy and HONORED I was able to be a part of such an amazing experience in your life. You are beautiful! xoxo

Courtney,
Thank you so much for the portraits!  I thought it would be a once in a lifetime experience, but I already want to do it again.  This was a life changing event for me…literally!

One year ago a friend of mine was planning to do one of your boudoir parties and invited me to participate.  I reluctantly agreed, but had vowed to never show anyone the pictures.  At the time I was a little chunky and a lot self-conscious.  I had been battling depression caused by constant and relentless migraines.  I had already tried every diet know to man, just to be gifted with more migraines and very little weight loss.

After booking the party I had to do something to get the weight off, even if it were to be a temporary loss.  Little did I know that it would turn out to be the best thing that has ever happened to me.  I went on a Paleo diet; no carbs, no sugars, and no processed foods!  That was pretty extreme for me.  But for the first time ever the weight just fell off and the migraines disappeared!

Through changing my eating habits I found out that I am allergic to MSG (a common food additive listed by 17 different names).  What started as a diet turned into a new way of life for me.  I’m 36 years old and now weigh what I did in high school AND I live a life free of migraines for the first time in 25 years!   I had no idea that low calorie/low fat packaged foods were not only keeping me heavy (due to the allergy) but were also causing my migraines, which in turn was causing my depression.  WHO KNEW???  I’m thin, healthy, and happy and dare I say it…I look better than I did 10 years ago!

Unfortunately that initial boudoir party that instigated these lifestyle changes was cancelled.   But I was so happy with the results and the new me that I thought I deserved to book my own session.  I am so happy I did!

Words cannot describe how much I love my portraits. They are beautiful!  I used to think that I wouldn’t show them to anyone, but you’ve made me look so good that I can’t resist sharing.  I think you have the talent to make anyone beautiful!

Thanks for the experience!
