**How My Boudoir Session Gave Me the Same High as Walking in New York Fashion Week**
Let me just say this upfront—I’ve walked in New York Fashion Week, and the adrenaline rush, the confidence boost, and the pure excitement of strutting down the runway in front of a sea of eyes is indescribable. But what I didn’t expect was to feel that *same* high in an entirely different setting—my boudoir session with Stephanie Marie Photography.
I know, I know. Boudoir photography and runway modeling seem like polar opposites, right? But here’s the thing: both experiences tap into the same feeling of empowerment. When you’re walking down a runway, every eye is on you, and you feel this incredible surge of confidence. You’re wearing clothes that make you feel unstoppable, and you walk like you own every inch of that stage. It’s a power trip, in the best way possible.
Now, imagine that same feeling, but in a much more intimate setting. During my boudoir session, it was just me, Stephanie, and the camera. And instead of designer clothes, I was in lingerie that made me feel *fierce* and feminine. Stephanie created this incredibly safe, supportive space where I felt comfortable, beautiful, and *seen* in a way that I hadn’t expected.
There was a moment when I looked into the camera and felt like I was on that NYFW runway again. The same rush. The same power. But this time, it was *for me*. I wasn’t walking for an audience or a designer; I was doing this for myself—to embrace and celebrate my body, my beauty, and my confidence.
Stephanie has this incredible ability to capture not just the way you look but the way you *feel* in that moment. I left that session feeling like I could conquer the world—and honestly, I felt that same post-runway euphoria that stayed with me long after the shoot.
So, if you’ve ever thought about doing a boudoir session with her but hesitated because you didn’t think it would be “your thing” or weren’t sure how you’d feel in front of the camera—let me tell you: it’s worth it. It’s like giving yourself a little piece of that NYFW magic, but for your own personal empowerment.
Who knew that trading the runway for a cozy studio could be just as exhilarating? Thanks to Stephanie Marie Photography, I felt like a supermodel, but most importantly, I felt *unstoppable*.
