For so many of us, putting ourselves first feels unnatural. We’re conditioned to be caretakers, to make sure everyone else is happy, to prioritise others before even considering our own needs. But here’s the truth I wish more women knew: prioritising yourself isn’t selfish—it’s necessary.
This realisation has been showing up in so many ways lately, especially when I talk to women about boudoir photography for self-love.
Why Do We Wait to Put Ourselves First?
Women tell me all the time:
- “I’ll book a boudoir session when I lose weight.”
- “I just need to feel more confident first.”
- “Now isn’t the right time—I’ll do it later.”
Sound familiar?
We do this in so many areas of life. We stay in relationships that don’t fulfil us because we don’t want to “ask for too much.” We put off experiences that would bring us joy because we feel guilty about spending time or money on ourselves. We wait for the perfect time to say yes to something just for us—only to find that perfect time never comes.
You Deserve More Than the Bare Minimum
So many of us have accepted the bare minimum for too long. We convince ourselves that we’ll feel more deserving later—after we’ve checked all the imaginary boxes that make us “worthy” of something special. But here’s the truth: you are already worthy.
The women who finally say yes to boudoir photography for self-love always tell me the same thing afterward:
“I wish I had done this sooner.”
Why? Because waiting to feel ready was just another way they were holding themselves back. The transformation—the confidence, the joy, the empowerment—doesn’t come before the session. It happens during it.
What Happens When You Finally Say Yes to Yourself?
Booking a boudoir photography for self-love session isn’t just about photos. It’s about choosing yourself. It’s about stepping into a space where you are the priority, where you don’t have to explain yourself or justify why you deserve to be celebrated.
When you finally stop waiting for permission and take that step, here’s what happens:
✅ You feel a new sense of confidence that stays with you long after the shoot.
✅ You realise how incredible you are—without needing to change a thing.
✅ You walk away with tangible proof of your beauty, strength, and worth.
This Is Your Sign to Stop Waiting
If you’ve been putting yourself last, let this be the moment you change that. You don’t need to wait for the perfect time. You don’t need to shrink yourself or justify why you deserve this.
You are worthy of this moment, exactly as you are.
