August is here, and with it comes the luminous full moon, casting its silvery glow across the night sky. Known as the Sturgeon Moon, this full moon brings a powerful opportunity for healing, reflection, and transformation. Whether you're a seasoned moon lover or just starting to explore its magic, this is the perfect time to harness its energy for personal growth and rejuvenation.

Focus on Healing: Embrace Your Inner Strength

The August full moon encourages us to delve deep into our inner worlds, uncovering and addressing wounds that need healing. It's a time to focus on self-care, self-love, and self-compassion. Here are some areas to concentrate on during this lunar phase:

  1. Emotional Healing: Release pent-up emotions and let go of past hurts. Acknowledge your feelings, and give yourself permission to feel and heal.

  2. Forgiveness: Forgive yourself and others. Holding onto grudges only weighs you down. Letting go can free your spirit and open your heart to new possibilities.

  3. Self-Worth: Boost your self-esteem and remind yourself of your intrinsic worth. Celebrate your achievements, no matter how small, and recognize your unique qualities.

Tips for Your Own Moon Ceremony

Creating a moon ceremony is a beautiful way to connect with the lunar energy and set intentions for healing and growth. Here’s a simple guide to help you create a magical experience:

  1. Prepare Your Space: Find a quiet, comfortable space where you won’t be disturbed. Cleanse the area with sage or palo santo to remove any negative energy.

  2. Set Your Intentions: Write down what you want to heal and release. Be specific and heartfelt. Place your intentions under a crystal or candle as a focal point for your ceremony.

  3. Meditate and Reflect: Spend some time in meditation, focusing on your breath and visualizing the moon’s light surrounding and healing you. Reflect on your intentions and feel the emotions that arise.

  4. Release and Let Go: Safely burn the paper with your intentions (if you feel comfortable doing so) or bury it in the earth as a symbolic gesture of release.

  5. Close with Gratitude: End your ceremony by expressing gratitude for the healing process and the moon’s guidance. Thank yourself for taking the time to focus on your well-being.

Journal Prompts for the Moon Ceremony

Journaling during the full moon is a powerful way to gain clarity and insight. Here are three prompts to guide your reflections:

  1. What emotional wounds am I ready to heal and release?

    • Reflect on past experiences that have caused pain. Write about how they have impacted you and what steps you can take to heal.

  2. In what areas of my life do I need to forgive myself or others?

    • Consider where forgiveness is needed. Write a letter (you don’t have to send it) to yourself or someone else, expressing your feelings and offering forgiveness.

  3. How can I celebrate my unique qualities and achievements?

    • List your strengths, talents, and accomplishments. Reflect on how these qualities have shaped who you are today and how you can continue to honor them.

As the August full moon graces the sky, take this time to honor yourself and your journey. Embrace the healing energy it offers and allow yourself to transform under its light. Remember, you are powerful, worthy, and endlessly magical. Happy moon gazing! πŸŒ•βœ¨

Feel free to personalize your ceremony and journal prompts. The most important thing is to follow what feels right for you. Enjoy the process and let the moon's magic guide you on your path to healing and self-discovery.

From posing guidance to private lingerie fittings, get all the details to feel confident and empowered for your boudoir shoot. Ready to embrace your sexy side and create stunning, empowering images?

Hello, beautiful souls! Welcome to my cozy boudoir studio in the heart of Edmonton. Today, I want to address some common myths about boudoir photography and shed light on what you can truly expect during your session. Let's dive in and dispel those doubts, so you can step into your boudoir experience with confidence and excitement. But first here is a quick look at Miss J’s Google review.

GOOGLE Reveiw

WOW! I can't say enough about Sarina. I was apprehensive coming into this experience having never done a boudoir shoot before. I was met with professionalism and understanding, and Sarina did an amazing job at making me feel comfortable, sexy, and playful. This experience has done so much to make me feel empowered. I will definitely by recommended Pink Blush Boudoir. - Miss J

Myth 1: Boudoir Photography is Only for Models

One of the biggest misconceptions is that you need to look like a supermodel to do a boudoir shoot. This couldn’t be further from the truth! Boudoir is for every woman, regardless of age, size, or shape. It’s about celebrating your unique beauty and capturing the essence of who you are. My studio is a judgment-free zone where you are celebrated just as you are. I believe I have a unique gift to see the beauty in bodies, not their societal flaws.

Myth 2: You Have to Be Completely Nude

Boudoir is all about what makes you feel comfortable and sexy. You don’t have to bare it all unless you want to. From lingerie to your favorite oversized sweater, we can create stunning images that make you feel empowered. It’s your session, and you set the boundaries. The goal is for you to feel confident and beautiful in whatever you choose to wear.

Myth 3: You Need Experience in Front of the Camera

Many women worry about not knowing how to pose or feeling awkward in front of the camera. Don’t stress! It’s my job to guide you through the entire process. I’ll show you how to pose and help you find the most flattering angles. By the end of the session, you'll feel like a pro, and those initial nerves will be a distant memory.

Myth 4: Boudoir Sessions Are Intimidating

Stepping into a boudoir session might feel daunting, but I promise it's not intimidating at all. My studio is designed to be a safe and welcoming space. We’ll chat, laugh, and maybe even dance a little to your favorite music. The experience is meant to be fun and uplifting. My goal is to create an environment where you feel relaxed and can truly be yourself.

Myth 5: Boudoir Photos Are Only for Your Partner

While boudoir photos make an incredible gift for a partner, they are first and foremost for you. This experience is about celebrating your body and your journey. Many women do boudoir sessions to mark personal milestones or simply as a way to treat themselves. It’s a powerful reminder of your strength and beauty.

Myth 6: Wanting to Do a Boudoir Session for Yourself Makes You Full of Yourself

Taking the time to celebrate yourself and your beauty is not vain or self-centered. It’s an act of self-love and empowerment. A boudoir session can be a transformative experience that boosts your confidence and helps you appreciate your body in a whole new way. It’s all about you, and that’s more than okay!

Myth 7: Boudoir is Only for Women

Boudoir photography is for everyone. Men, couples, and trans individuals are all welcome in my studio. The goal is to capture the essence of who you are, no matter your gender or relationship status. Love and beauty are universal, and boudoir photography is a celebration of that.

Myth 8: Your Partner Will Always Love Your Photos

While many partners do cherish boudoir photos, it’s important to remember that the primary purpose of the session is for you to celebrate yourself. If a partner doesn't appreciate the effort and beauty of your photos, it might be a reflection of their own issues, not yours. This experience is about your journey and self-expression.

Myth 9: Not All Women Know How to Be Sexy

Everyone has a sexy side; it’s just a matter of finding it. As a boudoir photographer, it’s my job to help you discover and embrace your sensuality. We’re all born with a sexual nature, and through posing, lighting, and encouragement, I’ll help you see and feel your own sexiness.

Boudoir Photographer Lloyd Alberta

Myth 10: It’s Hard to Find the Right Lingerie

Finding the perfect lingerie can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. I offer private fitting sessions at my studio where we can explore options from my carefully curated client closet. Together, we’ll find pieces that flatter your body and make you feel fabulous. With the right guidance, choosing lingerie becomes a fun and empowering part of the process.

Embarking on a boudoir session is an empowering journey that celebrates you. By debunking these myths, I hope you feel more at ease and excited about your upcoming session. Remember, boudoir is all about embracing your unique beauty and having fun along the way. I can’t wait to capture your radiance and help you see yourself in a whole new light.

Ready to book your session? Let’s create some magic together in my Edmonton studio!

Client Review with Album Reveal - Boudoir Photographer Edmonton YEG

Boudoir Experience Client Review and Album reveal, with the beautiful Miss F. Witness her reaction to seeing her album for the first time and read her very own Google review.

Today’s blog is a special one. Not only do you get to see some amazing images from a wonderful Boudoir Experience, but you also get to see her reaction to seeing her finished album for the first time. Creating custom albums for my clients to cherish forever is one of my favorite ways to make sure you get the most out of your Boudoir Experience. Luckily I print with the most amazing company. It is a Canadian-owned and run, company with all female staff, so you know your images are safe and in good hands. The Album cover options range from luxury leathers, sexy velvets, sparkles, snake skins, and rainbows. There is truly something for everyone, but to top it all off, I can make you custom gilding to suit your personality and taste. Miss F has darling pink hair, she loves stars and peonies, and her partner’s nickname for her is Goose. I took these points and created the stunning Gilding below.

Keep scrolling to see her reaction, all the beautiful images we created together, and her very own Google review.

Google Review:

β€œWords cannot describe the amazement and sheer joy of seeing the final result of my shoot. before I start gushing about the end, let me tell you about the beginning. From the start, Sarina has been incredibly forthcoming and transparent about everything. (pricing, sets, experience, privacy, etc...) the consultation was amazing and she was very flexible with moving my photoshoot date around to accommodate my work schedule.

Her experience with Hair and Makeup is AMAZING and visible with the time and care she put into my makeup- listening to what shades and colors I usually go with. As well as matching the makeup/look to the vibe of the shoot.

During the shoot, she was incredibly encouraging with her praise and the directions during posing made me feel like I had been doing this forever.

The photos turned out AMAZING. I FEEL amazing. And the Album, don’t even get me started. The custom Gilding she created just for me, is so beautiful. Every page is jaw-dropping. I will have this treasure forever.

Sarina is an incredible woman and I HIGHLY recommend doing a boudoir shoot even if you have zero experience ( like me). you WILL feel amazing and have a physical moment to remember that you DO look amazing. you ARE beautiful.” Miss F

Client feedback is truly one of the most important parts of my work. Hearing how clients feel about their experience has a big impact on how I learn and grow as an artist and as a professional. It lets me know when I’ve got things right and where I might have room to improve. I am passionate about my craft and creating the ultimate boudoir experience for every client. This experience is not just about pretty pictures. Boudoir has the power to completely transform how a woman sees herself. It can help us take our power back from the misogynistic pressure of society that many of us fall victim to. It can help us heal from unhealthy relationships or reconnect after a significant change to our bodies.

As women, we hold great power when we know ourselves, and that includes knowing our bodies intimately. We only have one body in this life, we will spend more time with it than anything else. I believe it is imperative for a woman to feel comfortable in her skin, to feel connected to her feminine energy, and to know its power. A body doesn’t have to be perfect to be Celebrated, it just needs to be seen with tenderness and appreciation for all it has gotten us through. Our scars, our stretch marks, the parts we think we need to change, they all tell a story and it is your story so love it.

-Miss F

Lunar Goddess: Embracing the Full Moon's Magic

As the full moon graces the skies on July 21, 2024, discover powerful ways to prepare for the new moon and harness lunar energy. This blog explores the full moon’s potential for self-reflection, healing, and manifestation. Learn transformative rituals like moon bathing, journaling, crystal cleansing, meditation, and joining a full moon circle to celebrate and channel the moon’s magic. Step into your power, honor your journey and let the full moon illuminate your path.

As the full moon approaches July 21, 2024, let me give you ways to prepare for the upcoming new moon. The full moon is a reminder of your innate power and beauty. As you connect with its energy, you awaken the Lunar Goddess within youβ€”a symbol of strength, intuition, and transformation. Embrace this time to honor yourself, celebrate your journey, and step boldly into your power.

Remember, the magic of the full moon is always within reach. By aligning yourself with its cycles, you tap into a wellspring of wisdom and strength to guide you through all phases of life. So, step into the moonlight, embrace your inner goddess, and let the full moon's magic illuminate your path.

The full moon is a time of heightened energy, illumination, and completion. Just as the moon cycles through its phases, so do we as women. Our bodies and spirits are intricately connected to these lunar rhythms, making the full moon an ideal time for self-reflection, healing, and manifestation. This celestial event invites us to release what no longer serves us and to embrace our fullest, most authentic selves.

Rituals to Harness Full Moon Energy

To fully embrace the magic of the full moon, consider incorporating these rituals into your monthly routine:

  1. Moon Bathing: Spend time outdoors under the moonlight. Allow its gentle glow to wash over you, calming your mind and energizing your spirit. Moon bathing is a simple yet powerful way to connect with lunar energy.

  2. Journaling: Reflect on your intentions and experiences over the past lunar cycle. Write down what you’re ready to release and what you wish to manifest in the coming weeks. This practice helps you harness the full moon's energy to clear away the old and welcome the new.

  3. Crystal Cleansing: Use the full moon to cleanse and recharge your crystals. Place them outside or on a windowsill where they can absorb the moonlight. This will amplify their healing properties and align them with your intentions.

  4. Meditation: Engage in a guided meditation focused on the moon's energy. Visualize yourself bathed in moonlight, feeling its soothing and empowering effects. This can enhance your intuition and bring clarity to your thoughts.

  5. Full Moon Circle: Gather with other women to celebrate the full moon. Share your intentions, support each other, and create a circle of empowerment. The collective energy of a full moon circle can amplify your personal experience.

Every full moon is an opportunity to connect deeper with yourself and the universe. By embracing the full moon's magic, you harness a powerful force of nature that can bring profound transformation and empowerment. Celebrate this celestial event with rituals that resonate with you, and watch as your inner Lunar Goddess rises, shining brightly with the light of the moon.

Embrace Your Confidence: My Journey with Boudoir Photography

Stepping into the world of boudoir photography was a decision that changed my life in ways I never could have imagined. As a photographer specializing in capturing the beauty and empowerment of individuals through intimate photoshoots, I've witnessed firsthand the transformative effects of embracing one's own beauty.  

Stepping into the world of boudoir photography was a decision that changed my life in ways I never could have imagined. As a photographer specializing in capturing the beauty and empowerment of individuals through intimate photoshoots, I've witnessed firsthand the transformative effects of embracing one's own beauty.  

Embracing one's own beauty is essential for cultivating self-confidence and a positive self-image. However, in today's society, the pressures of conforming to narrow beauty standards often lead individuals to push away their own unique beauty. Social media inundates us with images of the "preferred" body shape or features, creating an unrealistic ideal that many feel compelled to emulate. As a result, we find ourselves constantly comparing and critiquing our appearance, leading to feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt. 

Moreover, societal norms dictate that celebrating one's beauty can be perceived as vain or immodest, especially for women, perpetuating the belief that embracing our own beauty is somehow taboo or inappropriate. This constant barrage of messages erodes our self-confidence, leaving us feeling unworthy and insecure. It's crucial to challenge these societal norms and redefine beauty on our own terms, recognizing that true beauty lies in diversity and self-acceptance.  

By embracing our own unique beauty, we can reclaim our confidence and celebrate our individuality without fear or shame.In this blog, I want to share with you the incredible benefits of indulging in at least one boudoir shoot for yourself. 

Unbelievable Empowerment 

The experience of a boudoir shoot is truly unlike any other. From the moment you step in front of the camera, there's a palpable sense of empowerment that washes over you. It's as if you're shedding layers of self-doubt and insecurity with each click of the shutter. 

As a photographer, my goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where my clients can fully embrace their beauty and sensuality. And seeing the transformation that takes place during the shoot is nothing short of magical. The confidence that radiates from within them is awe-inspiring, and it's a feeling that stays with them long after the shoot is over. 

Viewing Your Photos: A Pleasant Surprise 

One of the most rewarding moments for me as a photographer is witnessing my clients' reactions when they see their photos for the first time. It's a moment of pure joy and disbelief as they realize just how stunning they truly are. 

We're often our own worst critics, nitpicking every perceived flaw and imperfection. But through the lens of my camera, I'm able to capture my clients in a way that they may have never seen themselves before – confident, alluring, and undeniably beautiful. And the realization of their own beauty is a powerful catalyst for self-love and acceptance. 

Timeless Memories 

Beyond the immediate thrill of the shoot itself, boudoir photography offers the opportunity to create timeless memories that you can cherish for years to come. These photos serve as a reminder of the strength and confidence you felt during that moment in time – a testament to your own beauty and resilience. 

As we age, our bodies inevitably change, but these photographs remain a timeless snapshot of our youth and vitality. They're a reminder of the journey we've taken towards self-love and acceptance, and they become even more precious with each passing year. 

Opening the Door for More Shoots 

For many of my clients, a boudoir shoot is just the beginning of their journey towards self-discovery and empowerment. The confidence they gain from seeing themselves in a new light often opens the door to even more creative opportunities. Whether it's exploring different styles of photography or embarking on a series of themed shoots, the possibilities are endless. And as a photographer, I'm here to support and encourage my clients every step of the way, helping them unlock their full creative potential. 

Custom Keepsakes 

As a boudoir photographer, I don't just capture images; I help my clients create custom keepsakes that they can treasure for a lifetime. From beautifully curated albums to tastefully framed prints, these tangible reminders of their beauty serve as a constant source of inspiration and empowerment. 

Each album is a unique reflection of my client's personality and style, carefully pieced together to tell their story in the most beautiful way possible. And having these keepsakes at their fingertips allows them to revisit the empowering experience of their boudoir shoot whenever they need a reminder of their own strength and beauty. 

In conclusion, the benefits of indulging in at least one boudoir shoot for yourself are undeniable. From the empowering experience of the shoot itself to the lasting memories captured in each frame, it's a journey towards self-love and acceptance that everyone deserves to experience. So why wait? Embrace your beauty and let your confidence shine through the lens of a boudoir photographer. You won't regret it.

Do You Even Know What You Look Like? - Boudoir Photography Studio

Discover the transformative power of boudoir photography and self-perception in my latest blog. Learn how professional photography can help you see your true beauty, challenge societal misconceptions, and foster a healthier relationship with your body. Join me as I explore the emotional journey of self-discovery and healing that goes far beyond the lens. Rediscover your confidence and see yourself in a whole new light.

Over the past 13 years, I've had countless conversations with women about their bodies, their feelings about them, their self-perception, and of course, all the perceived flaws they see. One simple truth has emerged: most women have no idea what they look like.

I’ve heard it all. "My thighs are too big," they say, yet in photos, this often translates to beautiful curvy hips and a small waist. "My boobs are too small, saggy, or uneven," but the reality is, everyone has one breast larger than the other. It's normal. Breasts sag over timeβ€”whether they're large, after having children, losing weight, or simply aging. It's a natural process, so why view it negatively? And when did small breasts become undesirable? Women often tell me they have the worst cellulite or stretch marks I’ve ever seen, which is rarely true. My personal favorite is, "I’m not photogenic or sexy," a sentiment echoed by nearly every woman. Perhaps no one has ever taken a flattering photo of them, so they haven’t seen their beauty. High-end fashion companies and magazines hire professional photographers for a reason: even the most beautiful people can look unremarkable without the right photographer.

Being sexy is much more about how we feel about ourselves inside. It's an aura, a feeling. Sexiness is about pleasure, and pleasure can be visual, physical, or through taste, but also intellectual, energetic, and emotional. Society, often driven by misogyny, confines sexiness to visual appeal, but it’s so much more. While the desire to be seen as physically attractive is understandable, it’s crucial to recognize that sexiness transcends physical appearance. Let’s not limit ourselves to a narrow definition.

Each week, new clients enter my studio with these distorted perceptions of their bodies. And each week, I witness women looking at the back of my camera and gasping in disbelief, "That’s not me?? Who is that? I never knew my body could look like that. Is that really what my butt looks like?"

These moments are the highlight of the boudoir experience. Watching a woman view herself with awe, seeing parts of herself she once avoided, and feeling delight instead of disgust is transformative. To see her eyes fill with tears because she likes what she seesβ€”something she never thought possibleβ€”is powerful. These moments fundamentally change my clients forever. The energy shift is almost miraculous, a complete change in perception.

Many people think boudoir photography is just about pretty pictures, some even see it as vanity. When I first started, I might have agreed. But I quickly realized it’s so much more. Many of us need healingβ€”from the lies society tells us, from the false beliefs instilled by others, and most importantly, from our harsh judgments about our bodies.

Recently, I experienced a significant shift in my own life, prompting me to delve deeper into my healing journey. I’ve always believed that to truly help my clients, I need to do my work. But healing is not linear. It comes in waves, peeling back layers one at a time and allowing them to heal. Occasionally, life presents circumstances that signal it’s time to shed another layer. This recent, painful phase is helping me uncover a more authentic version of myself, which in turn, will help me guide other women to see their bodies with more compassion.

Next time you catch yourself criticizing your body, pause and ask, "Do I even really know what I look like?"

One of the core principles of Penitent Leather is their commitment to people-forward production. It's not just about creating stunning garments; it's about ensuring that every individual involved in the process is treated with dignity and respect. Their in-house artisans are not just skilled craftsmen; they're valued members of the team who are paid a fair living wage for their labor. This commitment to ethical practices adds an extra layer of authenticity to the brand, something that I was eager to capture through my lens.

Inclusivity is another cornerstone of Penitent Leather's philosophy. Regardless of body shape, identity, or size, everyone is welcome to experience the luxury of their leather creations. This dedication to catering to a diverse range of clientele is reflected in their bespoke approach to sizing. By inviting customers to submit their measurements, Penitent Leather ensures that each garment is tailored to fit perfectly, regardless of individual proportions.

As the day of the photoshoot dawned, excitement crackled in the air. Miss Janaya Ray, with her magnetic presence and effortless grace, was the perfect embodiment of Penitent Leather's ethos. Clad in an array of meticulously crafted pieces, she exuded confidence and power with every pose. Against a backdrop of industrial chic aesthetics, we captured moments that spoke volumes about the brand's identity – edgy yet elegant, rebellious yet refined.

Throughout the photoshoot, I couldn't help but marvel at the synergy between the model, the brand, and the vision we were bringing to life. Every shot was a testament to the artistry behind Penitent Leather, a celebration of craftsmanship, inclusivity, and ethical production practices. And as the final images came together, I knew that we had succeeded in encapsulating the essence of this groundbreaking fashion venture.

In the world of fashion photography, moments of true inspiration are rare. But in collaborating with Penitent Leather and Miss Janaya Ray, I found myself immersed in a world of creativity, passion, and purpose. Together, we had created more than just photographs; we had captured the soul of a brand that dares to challenge conventions and redefine the meaning of luxury. And as I reflect on this unforgettable experience, I am reminded once again of the transformative power of artistry and vision.
