My self confidence and body image has been a bit all over the place the last couple of years with going up and down in weight. I was always comparing myself to other people and wanted to find a way to like my body more.

I was considering a boudoir photoshoot because I wanted to get out of my comfort zone and gain the confidence to love myself more when I came across Foxlow Photography on TikTok. It looked like a lot of fun, which inspired me to actually apply to do it!

I found the process of the photoshoot very exciting and thrilling. I was beyond nervous when I arrived at the studio, but after talking to the team and getting my makeup done I was soon in my comfort place. The process of makeup with Charlotte was very relaxing, since I never really do it myself. Seeing myself afterwards I really couldn't believe it was still me! I was overwhelmed with emotions with how I looked and loved how it gave me the confidence to step into the studio and love myself again.

The photoshoot itself with Danielle and Jon was a lot of fun from start to finish - I loved every minute of it and I would definitely do it again! As the photos were taken I began enjoying myself more and more, and I felt the confidence growing in myself.
