Boudoir Blasphemy: The Things They Say (and Why You Shouldn’t Care)
They’ll always have something to say. The moment you decide to feel good in your own skin, someone will try to make you question it. They’ll call it vanity, attention-seeking, or indulgent. But what they’re really reacting to is power—the kind of quiet confidence that doesn’t need permission.
As a Montreal boudoir photographer, I’ve heard it all. And I’ve seen what happens when women stop listening to the noise and start listening to themselves.
Here’s what they say—and why you shouldn’t care.
“Why would anyone want to see you naked?”
Because it’s not about them. It’s about you.
And let’s be honest—if you’re not your own muse, you’re missing out.
Boudoir isn’t about performing for someone else; it’s about reclaiming the gaze and reminding yourself that your body, your energy, and your confidence belong to you.
“Why would you need photos of yourself in lingerie?”
Because when you’re 80, you’ll want evidence. Evidence that you were legendary.
That you were that girl.
When your granddaughters find your boudoir album decades from now, they’ll whisper, “Who was this goddess?” And that’s exactly the point. You’re not taking photos for now—you’re creating a legacy.
“You’re not a 10. Why are you pretending to be?”
Confidence doesn’t come with a scorecard. You aren’t meant to be graded—you’re meant to be stared at.
A luxury boudoir photoshoot isn’t about numbers or perfection; it’s about presence. There’s nothing more magnetic than a woman who knows her worth, no matter what the world tries to label her.
“Why pay for photos you could take yourself?”
Because a selfie says, “Look at me.” Boudoir says, “See me.”
An iPhone captures a moment. A professional boudoir session captures a transformation.
Every woman deserves to be seen through an artistic lens that honours her story, her body, and her power. That’s something no filter or front-facing camera can replicate.
“Are you overcompensating for something?”
Yeah— for every year you made yourself smaller to be liked.
Because the truth is, you glow differently when you stop asking for permission. When you stop shrinking, you expand into the woman you were always meant to be.
“They’ll call it vanity. You’ll call it power.”
Because boudoir photography isn’t about being seen. It’s about finally seeing yourself.
Every curve, every glance, every breath—it’s all you, unfiltered and fearless.
