Miss K's Scottsdale Boudoir Photoshoot In Her Own Words | Phoenix Boudoir Photographer

Doing a boudoir session at Bella Jade Boudoir is a unique experience that celebrates women of all body types. No doubt stepping into the boudoir studio, being pampered with hair and make-up, hanging with us girls, laughing, posing, having fun, and feeling sexy will be a refreshingly good time and a huge confidence boost! While many women initially consider doing a boudoir shoot as a way to gift something special to their fiance or significant other — women truly want to do this for themselves, and I’ll bet you do too! No matter what shape or size you may be doing something this brave and realizing your beauty at any size will empower you to love yourself unconditionally and feel more confident in your own skin. That’s a feeling you will get to take with you long after the session has ended.

As a bride to be doing a boudoir shoot with us, Miss K. says…

“What a fantastic experience! Christina made the process so easy and comfortable. We started with a get-to-know-you call a few weeks prior, which was great to ask questions and feel prepared for what was coming. Once I got to the studio, Christina made me feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful. Initially nervous, I started laughing almost immediately and had the best time. She coached me through each step of the process and let me bring my own spin to things. Christina showed me a few previews of certain shots, and I am SO excited about the final result. You can feel her passion for women, making each person feel confident and bringing out their best selves. DEFINITELY will keep coming back!! And if you're on the fence or feel like you can after you lose weight or whatever -- BOOK IT!! You won't regret it”

After her session and seeing her final images we interviewed Miss K. to learn more about what it was like for her finally getting to do something like this. Here is how she describes doing a boudoir session at Bella Jade Boudoir:

Miss T. Celebrates turning 50 with Her Very Own Boudoir Photo Shoot at Bella Jade Boudoir in Scottsdale Arizona | After The Session Interview

To celebrate her 50th birthday Miss T. decided to book a boudoir session with us at Bella Jade Boudoir in Scottsdale. This was something she knew would have to be on her bucket list no matter how scary it seemed — She would later find that doing this session had in fact made a positive impact on her self esteem and gave her a huge sense of pride. Looking back at these photos is now something she finds encouraging, empowering, and uses it as a reminder for herself that we are capable of amazing things if we can set aside what we’re afraid of, believe in ourselves, and are willing to step outside of our comfort zones.

For her boudoir session Miss T. booked The Grey Room in Scottsdale and wore a variety of outfits from sweet, subtlety seductive to something more ris·qué including topless with a white button down shirt. In her after the session interview she talks about how her most nerve wracking outfit ended up being in one of her favorite pics.

She shares her experience in this boudoir interview *Shared with her permission.

She says “Words can not express the amazing experience I had.  Turning 50 at the end of 2022 and being body shamed since I was 12 this was something I have wanted to do for years but was so afraid to.  Made it a bucket list item and signed up.  I did my research on other photographers but following Christina on social media I got the feeling she truly cared and understood that not all women are built the same and we have our insecurities.  I was right the moment I walked in the door the day of the shoot I felt like I was hanging out with old friends just catching up and having a great time.  Then when I saw the completed pics all my previous worries went away and I am completely proud of myself for doing this.  If this is something you are wanting to do I highly recommend reaching out to The Bella Jade Collection.”

Miss W.'s Bella Jade Boudoir Photography Experience | Phoenix Boudoir Photographer in Old Town Scottsdale AZ |

I wish I could say that doing a boudoir session is an easy YES for everyone, because I wholeheartedly believe in boudoir and what it can do for you. Though — the truth is that it is not uncommon for women to put off doing a shoot like this.

Not only can it be incredibly intimidating at first, but it takes courage to confront your own doubts and body insecurities. For some a boudoir session can challenge the way they see themselves. While that journey can empower confidence it isn’t always easy to show up all in, right away.

If you’ve been putting off booking your very own boudoir session or are already on our schedule but looking for encouragement and advice then you’ve made it to the right place.

Miss W. was kind enough to allow us to share her after the session interview along with some of her boudoir photos taken in The Grey Room at our Scottsdale studios.

Here is what she has to say about her own self love journey and what she discovered during her boudoir photography experience with us at Bella Jade Boudoir.

“ … I never imagined that I would be walking into a place where I was accepted and encouraged and celebrated-- my fears left me somewhere around the time that my hair was done being curled! I wish that I had done it sooner. ”
