Rediscovering Me: Kristen’s Journey to Confidence Through Boudoir

For so many women, the idea of a boudoir session feels both exciting and terrifying. We spend years telling ourselves “not yet”—not until we lose the weight, not until we feel more confident, not until life slows down. Kristen was no different. A busy mom of four, wife of over 20 years, and someone who hadn’t carved out time for herself in what felt like forever. But something shifted when she found her way into our studio. What followed was more than a photo shoot—it was a powerful moment of rediscovery.

“My boudoir photo shoot with Brin exceeded all of my expectations! For years I wanted to do this but talked myself out of it. Something was different when I saw Brin’s work. I loved the way it started, a simple phone call. She got to know me and I got to know her, she encouraged me and put any worries I had at ease.

When the day came, it turned out to be the best day. From the Collaboration she had arranged to get my hair and makeup done, Brin’s beautiful intimate studio, her bubbly personality and the atmosphere she created.

The photo shoot itself was empowering. She gave great direction and listened to what my heart was behind wanting this shoot.

I always struggled with confidence and feeling beautiful. I’m in my 40’s, married for 20+ yrs and have 4 kids, time for me hasn’t been a thing.

It was fun, lighthearted and I was able to feel and embrace my beauty.

Sitting down to go through the photos was mind blowing. I got what I longed for. I saw myself as my husband sees me, I saw my beauty, imperfectly perfect.

It’s been a couple weeks now and the confidence it unearthed in me has been unbelievable.

Brin helped me find myself again.”

Kristen

Kristen’s story is proof that you don’t need to wait for the perfect time to choose yourself—you just need to take the leap. Her transformation wasn’t just about the photos (though they were stunning); it was about finally seeing herself with kind eyes and embracing the beauty that’s always been there. Confidence doesn’t come from changing who you are—it comes from remembering who you are. And Kristen? She remembered, and she rose.
