"Stripping down and being vulnerable in front of other women who are doing the same thing empowers you."

I love group events. There is just something about getting naked in front of a group of ladies, am I right?

 Seriously though, stripping down and being vulnerable in front of other women who are doing the same thing empowers you. I took a minute to really try to understand why some thing that it’s so silly would empower someone.

I think what it comes down to is the anticipation and the nervousness that you feel going into the event - knowing that you’re going to be half naked causes all of this adrenaline to go through your body. When you finally do it & you get out there, your heart is pumping & you have this feeling.  You feel free, not judged...How could you possibly be judged when every other woman is half naked and she is for sure insecure just like you. Everyone puts themselves out there. It levels the playing field.. I always watch my clients when they’re walking around and looking at one another. There’s always smiles, and support, everybody meets new friends, it’s just such a great feeling of acceptance and positivity.

I understand that boudoir is an investment.. I understand that it is an investment that not every woman can make, and that upsets me. I want everybody to be able to experience boudoir. I believe in the power of these empowerment sessions so much that I try to help every woman to be able to experience it, even the ones that can’t afford the luxury of it all. These events help with that! Not only is it empowering women and bringing together groups of people who would’ve normally not been brought together, it is opening your eyes to acceptance and seeing people that may not look just like you and watching them love themselves which in turn makes you accept yourself a little more... But these heavily discounted group events I feel are a need to offer clients who cannot afford that luxury of a full session just for them as well.

These events allow women to come in & feel liberated and be on a boudoir high! I always talk about boudoir highs. When you go into that session, and you’re up there and you are strutting your stuff with so much positivity being thrown at you, you feel like a star. As you should feel, YOU are the STAR. It makes you feel alive. Seen. It lights a spark inside you and gets that adrenaline going and you feel on top of the world. That feeling of confidence and being on top of the world lasts for a while, sometimes for a lifetime. A boudoir session is so much more than a photo shoot. But I digress. This was about group shoots, and bringing together like-minded individuals.

These events bring together groups of people with different bodies & ethnicities all on different walks of life all being vulnerable together. That human connection is real, and it feels good, and we need it and this chaotic world that we live in. So thank you to all the ladies over the years that have come to my events. I hope you were able to carry a little piece of the positivity from the event on with you and it brought you light in someway. I’m humbled at the fact that you came to my event and spent your precious time with me. I applaud you for being brave enough to come to an event like that, and I am forever thankful for every ounce of your support than I can even put into words.

Long story short, group events are here stay! I can’t wait for the next one. Can you?


 These are all images that my clients received  from the most recent group event. Tickets were $30 & they were able to take selfies on our various scenes, have a mimosa bar & some baked goods. They received a micro mini shoot & some pictures in the rain room.

I have to say being a part of Embrace Boudoir as well as meeting Kati, my perspective of myself and others has changed. The power behind the lens and the beauty seen through the lens is a powerful sense. The embrace shown through all these amazing, grandmothers, mothers, daughters, sisters, wife's, girlfriends, and whatever else I missed, makes me proud to be a woman. A plus size, curvy, big booty, thick thighs, half Puerto Rican women that finally excepts herself for who she is. Thank you for all that you do, and all that you are Katie because your one woman WHO IS SENDING A MESSAGE and needs to be heard!!!!! Go ahead with your bad self!!!! The mama of boudoir and the master behind the lens!
