I’m not a therapist, and a photoshoot is not a substitute for medical advice or the help of a professional therapist.
However, as someone who’s learned from my art form, experiences, mistakes, and growth, I’ve created a life filled with happiness, love, and hope. At FYEO, Iāve successfully helped thousands of peopleāfrom grandmothers to athletes, plus-size to petite, and all shapes and sizesāto exercise new and powerful ways of thinking that bring about beautiful and positive changes, transforming their lives through a body confidence photoshoot.
Our clients often share how transformative their boudoir photoshoot experience has been. From boosting confidence to providing a renewed appreciation for their bodies, the impact of the photoshoot goes beyond just the images. Here are a few testimonials from our satisfied clients

Every woman deserves to feel strong, seen & celebrated ā no matter her age, shape, size, or fitness level. Zoe is all that and more. šŖā£

These sessions arenāt just for elite athletes. I work with women at every stage ā from seasoned runners to those just starting their movement journey.ā£
You donāt need a six-pack. You donāt need to be at your āfittest.ā You just need the courage to step in front of the lens ā and claim your story.ā£šø
Because strength isnāt just how you move ā itās how youāve lived.ā£
To Zoe ā and to every woman who dares to show up boldly. This is what empowered looks like. šā£

š„° One of my favourite couples boudoir shoots has to be with Gemma & David. š«
I first met David & Gemma a few years ago when David surprised Gemma with a surprise boudoir shoot with me for her 40th birthday ā complete with big rose gold ā40ā helium balloons (the balloons were his idea ā and thanks to him, theyāve been a studio staple ever since!) šš
Fast forward to 2023ā¦ and they returned to celebrate their wedding anniversary with me, this time for a couples boudoir experience.
While Gemma was in makeup, we chatted about life, love, and ideas for the shoot. After makeup was finished, we got cracking with the shoot and created an artistic mix of romantic body portraits, music playing and my signature studio lighting flashing to the trigger of my camera. It was fun!! āØ
After the shoot I sent David and Gemma a link to their preview galleryā¦ Honestly ā itās something weāre all proud of.
What touched me most was when Gemma & David said they wanted to share their photos publicly. As many of you know, I never share private work unless clients explicitly ask ā so this was such a rare and wonderful gift. š
Hereās what Gemma had to say:
āThis is my second time visiting Alex ā my first was for my 40th, and this time a couples shoot for our 15th wedding anniversary. What an amazing experience. Alex made us both feel so relaxed and confident. Weāre thrilled with how she captured our love and intimacy. Canāt wait to return again to celebrate another milestone.ā
Gemma & David ā thank you for trusting me, twice. I absolutely canāt wait to welcome you back to the studio. Iām so proud of the gorgeous portraits that we have created of the two of you, such a gorgeous couple.
With love,
Alexandra xx

š HAPPY BIRTHDAY ME! š 52 and feeling fabulous. Iāve had a great day so far at the very beautiful Cliveden House with dear friends Trina Julie & Emily on a girls day trip. @fyeoportraits
3am. I lie completely still ā gripping the covers, fists tight, tension in my neck and jaw, eyes wide open. Adrenaline rushes through me; I feel connected to every fizzing molecule.
I thought Iād already done the hard work of life ā the heartbreaks. I figured Iād earned a rest from self-discovery. But here I am, at 52, learning more about myself in my coffin of anger.
Simon. Iām so cross with you.
My brother died last year, age 52, of alcoholism. The trauma is hard to bear.
My beloved nephew ā Simonās son ā has lost his dad. š„¹ That child has a right to know his fatherās people.
So here I am, awake at 3am, my mind spinning with angry grief.
I know Iām not alone. We all have those moments of 3am anxiety, right?
Iāve realised my deep emotions donāt like the light; they wake me up, tormenting me. My anger is like a coat ā heavy and wet from a storm ā I long to hang it up to dry.
Anger disguises itself as control, silence, self-criticism. I bury it, but it rises again ā in my words, reactions, the strain on my body.
Listen. Learn.
So I listen. And in that quiet, resilient space.
If youāre awake at 3am, buzzing with anger or grief, donāt rush to silence it.
Listen. Let it move through you.
We can use that energy to grow stronger ā not in muscle, but in mindset. When we stop running and really listen, thereās power there.
Iāve decided to use that power to
Love more fiercely.
Feel more connected to my body.
Growth doesnāt happen in the light. It happens in the lonely, uncomfortable dark at 3am ā the place we become who weāre meant to be.
Letās turn anger into energy for good.
Are you a 3-amer? How do you cope?

āļø Boudoir Photography Transformation Story: Kirsty āļø
Kirstyās photoshoot journey is one of the most beautiful chapters in my book The Queen of Boudoir (available now on Amazon šāØ).
This shoot wasnāt just about photosāit was about self-discovery, confidence, and love. Her husband gifted her the session with a heartfelt wish: that Kirsty could finally see herself the way he sees herā¦ radiant, powerful, and absolutely beautiful. š
At first, Kirsty was nervous (as so many women are before stepping in front of the camera). But as the shoot unfolded, something magical happenedāshe began to let go, to laugh, to celebrate herself. What started with hesitation turned into an experience that she described as fun, liberating, and life-changing.
From sultry lingerie sets to timeless nudes, and even a striking pair of black Louboutins š , Kirsty embraced every side of herself with courage and elegance. Her story is a reminder that boudoir photography isnāt just about imagesāitās about transformation, empowerment, and seeing your true beauty reflected back at you.
š„ You can watch Kirstyās full story here: https://youtu.be/qiFwjhV2UdY?si=jUD_fGwYbm7QSmac
āØ To every woman reading this: you are worthy of celebrating yourself. Sometimes all it takes is a little nudge, a spark, or a moment of courage to rediscover the goddess within.

š 40th Birthday Boudoir Photoshoot Balloons š
Birthday balloons are such a fun, playful accessory to add to your boudoir photoshoot ā especially when youāre celebrating something major like your 40th / 50th / 60th /70th! birthday.
Iāve created a full series of flattering poses with balloons: standing, kneeling, sitting, even lying down ā where you can either hold your balloons with pride or let them float around you while we wrap your body into the most beautiful shapes.
Itās creative, sensual, and so much fun. āØ
My personal favourite?
Rose gold balloons.
They pair beautifully with my artistic, backlit studio lighting and add a stunning glow to your skin, whether youāre in lingerie, a body harness, or nothing at all.
The light catches the foil and creates this dreamy shimmer that flatters every curve. Trust me, the results are š„.
I first started using balloons in shoots a few years ago when a clientās husband, David, added them to his wife Gemmaās session as a surprise.
When the balloons arrived, Gemma was over the moon ā and honestly, so was I!
We spent the shoot experimenting with artistic body shots: sometimes Gemma nude, sometimes draped in delicate lingerie, always powerful, always beautiful.
Since then, Iāve encouraged my birthday clients to bring balloons to accessorise their birthday boudoir shoots.
Itās become a bit of a signature look ā a mix of celebration, sensuality, and art.
One of my favourite shoots ever was a ābody oil & balloonsā session ā the balloon colour rubbed off onto my clientās skin and it looked like body paint!šØ
So, would YOU add birthday balloons to your boudoir photoshoot? Are you celebrating a milestone birthday like your 40th or 50th or 60th and want to mark the moment by honouring your body with a beautiful, sensual portrait experience?
Let me know below or DM me ā Iād love to help you plan your dream birthday boudoir session. š¤
Love,

š„° āThese pictures are from my 3rd boudoir shoot at FYEO Portraits. I have to say, every time I step in front of the camera, I feel a little more me.ā
āToday I wore my favourite sparkly shoes, a crisp white shirt, and carried with me a story that isnāt always easy to tell.ā
āIn 2019, I was diagnosed with severe endometriosis. Since then, Iāve had four surgeries. Four times Iāve gone under the knife, four times Iāve had to piece myself back together. These scarsāboth the ones you can see and the ones you canātāmark chapters of resilience that I never imagined Iād have to live through.ā
āMy body is different now. It looks different, it feels different. But through all the pain, the recoveries, the ups and downs, Iāve grown stronger. Iāve learned to advocate for myself in ways I never thought I could.ā
āAnd yetā¦ if Iām honest, the last couple of years I felt like I lost something. My spark. My mojo. That part of me that lit up rooms and laughed too loud and dreamed big. Maybe you know that feelingāthe quiet slip of losing touch with yourself while youāre just trying to survive.ā
āThatās why today mattered so much. This shoot was about showing up for myself.ā
āStronger now.ā Jodie š¦
If youāve ever felt like youāve lost your shine, I hope you know it can come back. Maybe not all at once, maybe not in the same wayābut with patience, courage, and a little bit of sparkle, it can return.
Hereās to healing, to rediscovery, and to never giving up on the version of ourselves we still dream of becoming. š«

Huge thanks to Jodie for sharing her story and for taking part in my āMedia Shoot Campaignā- a series of client stories to help celebrate my 20th year in business, 3 years ago.

A body confidence photoshoot at FYEO is more than just capturing images; itās about fostering a journey of self-love and acceptance. Women from all walks of life have traveled great distancesāboth physically and mentallyāto discover if they can heal their broken self-images within our studio.
The poses used in a body confidence photoshoot have a therapeutic effect. Itās a form of body-to-mind therapy, where doing something physical with your body, stripped bare and creating shapes that differ from everyday movements, can lead to profound mental shifts. This process helps you see your body differently, providing a fresh perspective that can heal outdated blueprints of what you think your body should look like.
A body confidence photoshoot at FYEO allows you to embrace your femininity. It helps you make sense of the shape of you and see how everything fits together beautifully. This newfound understanding fosters a sense of connection, making you feel that your body is your friend and needs love. Doing something physical and embracing your body in a visual way during the body confidence photoshoot helps you reconnect with it on a deeper level.
One of the most empowering aspects of a body confidence photoshoot is the feeling of being seen. The focus is entirely on you during your body confidence photoshoot, providing attention that you might not be used to. This concentrated attention can give you a significant confidence boost. The photographic portraits created help you feel truly seen and appreciated, which is a crucial step towards building body confidence.
Understanding light and reflection is key to releasing yourself from punishing self-criticism. Light can make you look great or pretty awfulāitās not you, itās the light. When Brigitte Bardot was asked about the secret to her great beauty, she replied, āgreat lighting!ā Reflections in the mirror can often disappoint us, but itās often the lighting that distorts our reflection. A body confidence photoshoot at FYEO helps you see yourself in the best light, literally and figuratively.
Selfies are often taken at armās length or closer, which is not how the world sees us. Seeing yourself in photos you donāt like can be disheartening. The 2D representation of ourselves is unusual because we are used to seeing movement and different angles in the mirror. Thatās why the pictures taken at FYEO are dynamic in angle, lighting, and energy. This approach allows you to see yourself as more than just a close-up but rather as a whole, beautiful, and perfect being.
At FYEO, our photographers are experts in understanding and manipulating light and angles to capture the best version of you. The goal of a body confidence photoshoot is to show you how incredible you truly are. We create an environment where you can feel safe, celebrated, and empowered.
Many women find that a body confidence photoshoot at FYEO is a journey of self-discovery. Itās an opportunity to confront and dismantle negative self-perceptions. By seeing yourself through the lens of a skilled photographer, you begin to appreciate the unique beauty and strength that you possess. Itās a transformative experience that goes beyond the physical and touches the core of your self-worth.
Iād love to share what Iāve witnessed in the FYEO studio with you. Women who have planned and traveled great distancesāboth physically and mentallyāto find out if they can heal the broken vision they have for their body in my studio. The poses have a therapeutic effect, offering body-to-mind therapy. Doing something physical with your body, stripped bare, and creating shapes that differ from everyday movement can help transform self-perception.
Seeing your body differentlyāgetting a fresh perspectiveāhelps heal outdated blueprints of what you think your body should look like. Embracing femininity and making sense of the shape of you allows you to see how everything fits together beautifully. This experience helps you feel connected and understand that your body is your friend and needs love. Doing something physical and embracing your body in a visual way helps you reconnect with it.
The focus on you during your body confidence photoshoot, attention that you might not be used to, gives you a boost.
