Boudoir at Any Age

Whilst searching for quotes related to age, this one by Mark Twain resonated with me as capturing the essence of boudoir photography, a genre of photography often misunderstood as being something only for the young. 

"age is an issue of mind over matter. if you don't mind, it doesn't matter." — mark twain. 

At our studio we believe that boudoir should be for everyone. We have photographed clients from 21 years of age, to 74 years of age, and each of these women absolutely rocked their photoshoots. Boudoir, to us, is a celebration of self, and an opportunity to see yourself in a whole new light at any stage in life.

"I never thought at nearly 75 I would do anything like this... but I loved it! Don't be put off by your age. My photoshoot was one of the best experiences of my life."

Linda - 74 years old

We often talk about Body Positivity but what many people don’t realise is that Body Positivity isn’t just about size or shape, it extends to age as well. Our society often equates youth with beauty, sidelining the elegance and grace that comes with age. Boudoir photography challenges these stereotypes by embracing the idea that every age can be sexy, confident, and utterly beautiful!

"I used to be bullied at school which made me hate the way I look, but the shoot really made me feel amazing. I left feeling on top of the world and with a bit more sass."

Samara - 21 years old

For many people, their 20s and 30s are all about exploration and self-discovery. A boudoir session can be an incredible part of that journey, helping to empower and solidify your self-esteem and body image, and to celebrate personal milestones, whether that’s a career move, an academic achievement, new relationships or for personal growth.

“I would like to go into my 30s with a different mindset. I was absolutely terrified, but the team made me feel very comfortable. I usually pick out every flaw I can see in myself, but I love my photos!

"

Emma - 29 years old

Our 40s and 50s are often the years of reflection and renewal. A boudoir shoot can mark a new chapter in life; perhaps the kids have grown up and you have a little more time to yourself, or career paths have shifted. It’s a time to focus on yourself again, to acknowledge your journey and your body’s changes with love and acceptance.

"I had starting to feel old, but the moment I stepped into the studio I felt empowered and pretty! At last I could smile and love who I am again.

It's offered me a brand new start."

Ali - 54 years old

Hitting our 60s and beyond is where many of us begin to worry about receding into the background. However, these years are ripe for celebration. Boudoir photography can be seen as a tribute to the wisdom, strength and beauty accumulated over a lifetime. It’s a moment to celebrate everything your body has done for you and how far it’s come. It’s a way to show yourself that beauty does not fade with age; it evolves.

"I had a huge birthday last week - I’m officially a pensioner. For a long time now I've been content with the person I am inside, but I had no idea there was just another me waiting on the sidelines!"

Myra - 66 years old

It’s natural to feel hesitant about stepping in front of the camera at any age, but our goal as a studio is to show your yourself in a whole new light, to show you that whatever your age, you are beautiful and to help to improve your confidence with an album of gorgeous images that you can look back on and feel proud of the person you are. 

"I did this to restore my low self esteem and confidence.

I just wanted to feel sexy in my own skin and not worry that I don’t look the way I used to.

It’s given me back my spark!"

Zoe - 49 years old
