Updated: May 1, 2022

A boudoir photoshoot teaches you to fall in love with every part of your body.

Scars are not just marks on your body…


Scars mark a chapter of your history.

Scars are a symbol of your strength.

Scars open the gateway of connection.

A boudoir photoshoot can not only change your perception of yourself, but it can also change how you view your perceived flaws.

This is exactly what happened with my client Joanna.

Joanna wanted to do something that allowed her to fall in love with herself, exactly as is.

Like many clients, Joanna had some questions, doubts, and hesitations.

Am I good-looking enough for a boudoir photoshoot? Will I be able to find the right photographer whom I can build this trust with?

During her first photoshoot, Joanna asked me not to shoot her right side because of scars she had from childhood. She told me she didn’t want to ‘ruin’ my photos.

As if those scars weren't a unique part of what made her, Joanna. As if they weren't a beautiful part of her life’s story.

After explaining this to her, I began shooting some more photos of her right side.

Part of my job as a boudoir photographer is to help women feel comfortable and relaxed, both in their bodies and mind. Through on-set coaching, they learn how to move in a way that brings out the best in themselves.

By playing with lighting, shadows, and poses, I was able to leave subtle hints of her scars in some of her photos. I was able to show her how beautiful her scars could look when seeing them from a new perspective.

In the end, she absolutely loved the photos with her scars, they came out more beautiful than she ever could have imagined. Joanna’s scars made the photos that much more special because she wasn’t hiding anything.

In fact, after our photoshoot I asked Joanna if I could submit her photos for a boudoir magazine. She said yes, but didn’t think they would be accepted because of her scars.

Well… the magazine loved her photos and published them. We were both thrilled, she couldn’t believe it!

After having a second photoshoot with Joanna, it’s unbelievable to see how she has changed.

She holds herself with confidence and stands in her own feminine power. She accepts and loves every part of her body, and feels sexy doing it. Every woman deserves to feel this way!

If you’d like to hear more about Joanna’s experience, in her own words, head over to our YouTube channel. She speaks about her doubts, what it’s like working with a male photographer, and her favourite parts of the photoshoot.

When you book a boudoir photoshoot, everyone works as a team and we support you from the beginning until the very end.

Every woman is painted with her own unique marks, and we understand the desire for photos that capture the very essence of what makes you…you!

Are you in London and interested in booking a session of your own, or hoping to ask a few questions?

Joanna Testimonial


I have wanted to do a Boudoir photoshoot to simply fall in love with myself.

When the idea came to me I was scared at first because I wasn’t sure if I would look good enough in the pictures, I have been very conscious of my looks.

Adam proved himself to be an excellent photographer who is very kind, professional, and body positive. On the day of the shoot, he made sure I felt comfortable relaxed, and most of all myself. Adam has coached me in a variety of different body positions to bring the best out of me. The pictures came out more beautiful than I have expected and even some were PUBLISHED!

I must say now I love my body and feel very sexy. I can’t recommend Adam enough.

If you want to do Boudoir Shoot, Adam is an excellent choice
