Let’s make February self love month!
With February revolving around Valentine’s Day, I think it’s fitting to make it a self love month. Valentine’s Day is meant to show the people you love some love, so why not show yourself a little love too.
I’ve been having a hard time coming up with things to write about on our blog. As most of you know (or can tell from my other blog posts), I am not a writer, however, I do my best, and I think this topic will be great for discussions and for furthering our brand and what we truly stand by here at Pink Blush.
We are obviously boudoir photographers, however, we are in the business of helping people see themselves in a new light. As much as boudoir photography is about getting ‘sexy’ photos done of yourself, it is a lot about the experience you will receive when you walk through our doors. I think this is the part that Sarina and myself pride ourselves in most.
We want women to feel safe and comfortable when they arrive, during their shoot, and after they leave. We try our best to make sure our studio feels this way for everyone who comes here. We not only want you to feel safe and comfortable, but we want to help you on your path to appreciating yourself and if you will, showing yourself the love and praise you deserve.
In dedicating this month to Self Love, Sarina and myself will be doing some self love work as well. Feel free to join in and do some of the things we plan on doing, we will share our progress and give you updates every Saturday this month on how it’s going.
Over the last two years, I myself have been doing a lot of work and trying to show myself some love for change. For me it was trying to have a more positive outlook on life and myself. Taking care of myself more by working out and changing my diet. It has been a long road and journey for myself, but in taking so much pride in taking care of myself, it was easier to start to love myself more. Putting in that extra effort has helped me appreciate myself more, which has led to me opening up and growing as a person.
Your self love journey is important, and will come to you when you need it most. Of course it will be different for everyone, and you may have already started doing the work, but if you haven’t already it may be time for you to start or to think about starting.
This week will be step one, and that I think is acceptance that you need to start accepting yourself and treating yourself better. Hold yourself accountable. That’s where I want everyone to start. I am by no means a professional or leader in self love, I myself could still use some refreshing in this category, so I will be starting from the beginning again too. Take this time to figure yourself out too, think about what you might want for yourself and for your future.
That’s all for now.
XOXO

PS in the meantime enjoy some images from Miss K’s shoot I did back in November.
