From Shy to Stunning: Chloe’s Pre-Wedding Boudoir Experience

When Chloe first walked into the studio, there was a nervous excitement in her eyes — the kind that comes right before a big life chapter. She’d found me at the Portland Bridal Show, just months before her wedding, and decided to gift herself something far deeper than photos — a moment of confidence she could carry into her marriage.

As a barista, Chloe spends her days bringing warmth and comfort to others. But stepping in front of the camera was something entirely new.

“I’m very shy when it comes to spicy topics,” she told me. “I just didn’t have a lot of knowledge about it.”

Still, beneath the nerves, there was this spark — a quiet bravery whispering that she was ready to see herself in a new light.

She chose The Indulge Collection — a perfect fit for brides-to-be who want to celebrate their story before walking down the aisle. This collection gave Chloe time to slow down, soak in every moment, and rediscover her beauty with soft confidence and a hint of fire.

“I was nervous and scared,” she admitted, “but also so excited.”
And by the end?
Confident. Sexy. Amazed.

Watching her transformation was pure magic. The same woman who hesitated at the start was soon arching, laughing, and glowing — her reflection finally matching the beauty everyone else could already see.

“I was surprised that I actually felt good about myself looking at my photos,” she shared afterward. “Kendri made me feel so comfortable. Seeing her get into the poses first helped a lot.”

The client-closet pieces she selected framed her perfectly, while hair and makeup added just the right touch of bridal glamour. But it was her confidence that stole the show.

When Chloe saw her images during her same-day reveal, she couldn’t believe the woman staring back at her.

“Being able to see myself like that made me a lot more confident,” she said. “I definitely gained body and sexuality confidence.”

For brides considering their own boudoir experience, Chloe’s advice is simple:

“Just go for it. Yes, it’s scary — but it’s so worth it.”

Her upcoming wedding may mark the beginning of a new chapter, but her session marked something just as powerful — the moment she stopped being shy about her own beauty.

To Chloe — thank you for trusting me to capture this part of your journey. You radiated strength, sweetness, and sensuality in every frame — the perfect reflection of the woman you’re becoming.
