Recently, we had the honor of working with a truly inspiring woman who reminded us just how powerful self-care can be. This beautiful client flew cross-country from Colorado to our studio for a Maryland boudoir photography experience she had been dreaming about. Her story is one of resilience, dedication, and the importance of taking time to celebrate yourself—a message we believe every woman deserves to hear.

Imagine this: a single mom of six children who works tirelessly every day to provide for her family. Her plate is beyond full, yet she made the bold decision to carve out some time just for herself. She decided that she deserved a day of pampering, joy, and self-expression—something she hadn’t experienced in far too long.
What brought her to us all the way from Colorado? She had heard glowing reviews from two women she knew personally who had previously worked with us (as we’re all plus size) and raved about their experiences. Inspired by their stories and the beautiful images she saw, she decided to go all in, booking her session months in advance and making plans to travel.
Understandably, as a curvy woman of color, she was a bit nervous beforehand. Finding professionals who understand the unique nuances of working with diverse skin tones can be tough, and she wanted to ensure her photoshoot would reflect her true beauty authentically. Luckily, we have an incredible hair and makeup artist on our team who has proven time and again that she knows exactly how to bring out the best in all our clients.
Our makeup artist, though Caucasian, has years of experience working with women of color. She understands the importance of getting undertones just right and knows how crucial it is to create a look that enhances natural beauty without washing out rich skin tones. By the end of her session, our client was glowing—not just because of the makeup, but because she felt truly seen.
The day of the shoot was magical. Dressed in outfits that made her feel bold and confident, she stepped in front of the camera and absolutely owned it. Her natural charisma shone through every pose, and the results were nothing short of breathtaking.
For someone so accustomed to putting everyone else first, this day was a powerful reminder of her strength, beauty, and worth. Our maryland boudoir photography team couldn’t have been prouder to be part of such an empowering moment.




For single moms, who often feel the pressure to do it all, a gesture like this is more than just a “treat.” It’s a radical act of self-love. It sends a message not only to themselves but also to their children that taking care of yourself is an important part of living a fulfilled life.
This plus-size photoshoot wasn’t just about capturing her outer beauty—it was about celebrating her story, her resilience, and her decision to prioritize herself, if only for one day.
She’s not the only client to travel for our studio for maryland boudoir photography- this client drove all the way from Atlanta, Georgia for hers!
