Aleksandra’s transformational boudoir shoot at the Portobello Hotel in London

“There’s nothing more empowering than accepting your body as it is right now”

Aleksandra came to me at a time when she knew she had to have some serious surgery, and illness was taking its toll… feeling sexy again and recording her pre-surgery body was important to her on that journey to acceptance.

She chose my Empowered Goddess coaching and photography package, and it was an absolute pleasure to see her transform into the sexy, sensual woman (in body and mind) she wanted to find within herself.

So many of my clients tell me they’re just not sexy, or have lost that side of them (and usually, their love life is suffering because of it), but quite often it’s not about how they look, it’s about how they feel within themselves. I love helping women to find their inner Goddess and bringing out a different side of them they haven’t seen in ages, if ever.

In Aleksandra’s line of work as a personal stylist, she’s used to styling, and being on the other side of the camera, but not in the limelight!

Aleksandra says, “In my work, I believe it’s important to embrace all sides to ourselves, especially as we get older and some sides can become hidden. Personally, I wanted to see a more sensual and sexy side, and that was fun to visually explore. Ginny’s approach to coaching helps you to better reflect on yourself, and her soft approach is nurturing and gentle.”

“It was an empowering day… I’d recommend it to anyone!”

“Ginny is kind and fun, knows how to work with angles, and put you at ease. She really wants to understand your needs and desires, and makes appropriate suggestions. She’s sometimes a little bit cheeky, and that lightens the nerves in a funny way!

It was an empowering day, where I felt fully myself, and it was a good deal of fun, I’d recommend it to anyone! It’s important to entrust yourself to the team, and hair and make-up was so much fun, even if I don’t wear much make-up in my day-to-day life.” – Aleksandra

“I feel more beautiful and sexy”

Aleksandra chose to have her images displayed in one of our gorgeous folio print boxes so that she can be reminded of this time in her life (and have the option of framing any of the individual mounted prints). This is one of our most popular products as it’s so versatile.

“I love the photos, they make me feel glamorous and allow me to explore different sides of myself. A special secret box (with 15 individual prints) just for myself is a wonderful thing right now. My fave pic is the one with the flower on the chair by the window (for my eyes only!)

When I remember the day that I gifted this to myself, and the pictures, I feel more beautiful. And sexy.” – Aleksandra

“I generally think that we should be naked more”

“How wonderful to have a record of yourself at a certain moment in time, feeling like your best – even if you’ve got all sorts of other things going on in your life. Also, I generally think that we should be naked more, and accept ourselves, in and out of clothes, and Ginny’s work can help women with that. So voila.” – Aleksandra

What wise and wonderful words! It is all about self-acceptance.

I’m so grateful to Aleksandra for allowing me to share some of her boudoir photos, and words of wisdom, with you here on my blog 🙂

I really hope you’ve enjoyed reading and seeing some of her images. Keep scrolling for more images…
