✨ The truth is this: to feel body confident, we don’t need to be special.

✨ The truth is this: to feel body confident, we don’t need to be special. We don’t need to have “perfect” skin, abs, curves, or whatever standard the world throws at us. What we really need are the right tools to handle our mind.

Because body confidence doesn’t begin with a new diet, a new workout, or a smaller jeans size. It starts with a single, life-changing decision:

💡 The decision to love our body exactly as it is, right here, right now.

At the age we are.

In the shape we are.

At the size we are, in this moment.

When we decide to see our body through the lens of love, everything changes. Not through the lens of fear, rejection, or comparison. Not through the memory of lost love or someone else’s opinions. But through our own lens.

The truth is, we will spend a lifetime with this body. It is the longest, most intimate relationship we will ever have. And we get to choose: will we criticise it endlessly, or will we celebrate it?

Here’s where the magic begins:
✨ Gratitude. For this life vehicle that carries us.
✨ Acceptance. Of its humanness, its uniqueness, its fabulousness.
✨ Action. Moving our body, not as punishment but as love—because movement lifts our mind and reminds us that we’re doing the best we can.

Confidence takes a decision. Then courage. Then practice. And that’s where I come in. I help you step out of body shame, fear, and doubt… and help you see your body through love. In the studio, just you and me. And in less than 3 hours, you’ll walk away with a whole new mindset about your body.

Because let’s be real: one bad mirror, one unflattering angle, one harsh light can destroy our confidence in seconds. But once you understand how reflections lie to us, you can learn to forgive that “wrong view.” You’ll stop letting a fleeting image in bad lighting define how you feel about your incredible body.

💖 The power is always in your hands. All it takes is one choice. One decision. One lens shift.

Are you ready to see yourself differently?

✨ As a boudoir photographer, I’ve learned that beauty isn’t just in the eye of the beholder—it starts with you.

✨ As a boudoir photographer, I’ve learned that beauty isn’t just in the eye of the beholder—it starts with you. Tag someone who needs to hear this today!🚀

Our attitude toward our bodies shapes everything: how we feel, how we move, and how we express ourselves.

When we honor and celebrate our bodies, we unlock a deep sense of confidence, pride, and feminine energy that radiates in every space we enter. 💖

Boudoir photography isn’t just about taking pictures—it’s about reclaiming your power, feeling desirable, and embracing every curve, line, and imperfection as a part of your story. When you show up in front of the camera with love for yourself, something magical happens. Your energy becomes magnetic, unapologetic, and utterly radiant. 🌟

I ROCK my body with pride and joy. I cherish what I see in the mirror, I celebrate what my body allows me to do, and I honor every part of myself. And this is what I aim to capture for my clients: that feeling of being fully, fiercely, and beautifully themselves. When you embrace your own beauty, it doesn’t just change how you see yourself—it changes how the world sees you. 💃

So here’s my message: love your body, revel in your curves, your edges, your softness, your strength. Wear your confidence like a crown, let your joy be loud, and never let anyone—or anything—dull your shine. Boudoir is more than photos—it’s a celebration of you, exactly as you are. 💕

Let’s honor our bodies, our energy, and our feminine power together. ✨

⭐️The ultimate wedding gift isn’t something you buy—it’s something you create.

✨ Learn My Boudoir Bride Poses…

My new Boudoir Bride Mini-Course shows you how to shape your body into elegant, flattering poses and style your portraits with a veil for that modern bridal edge. Think of it as a step-by-step guide to creating portraits that feel romantic, powerful, and entirely your own.

Each pose is fully directed, so you don’t need experience. You can practice at home, in front of the mirror, or even try capturing them on your phone. It’s about more than just photos—it’s confidence, play, and the chance to see yourself in a whole new light.

These portraits also make a wedding gift like no other. Intimate, personal, and unforgettable—something your partner will treasure long after the day itself.

Do it solo as a self-love project, share it with a friend, or turn it into part of your hen do. However you approach it, you’ll have fun experimenting and end up with images that celebrate your bridal era in the most timeless way.

✨ Download the guide, grab your veil, and let’s begin. ✨

⬇️Do you ever look in the mirror and only see the bits you don’t like? That inner critic gets louder… and suddenly it’s not just about your body.

⬇️Do you ever look in the mirror and only see the bits you don’t like?
That inner critic gets louder… and suddenly it’s not just about your body. It creeps into your confidence, your relationships, your s3x life, your career.

I know because I’ve been there too. I’m Alex, 52, and for years I struggled with how I saw myself. But my career as a boudoir photographer, working with over 20,000 women has taught me something life-changing:

✨ You can change the lens on your life.

In photography, I swap lenses to get the view I want. Wide, close, bright, dramatic—whatever tells the story best. And it’s the same with self-image. We can choose a kinder, more powerful perspective. We can choose to celebrate or critisise. And we should choose wisely.

At FYEO, I help women into flattering, feminine power poses. At first, it feels brave—even scary.

But then something incredible happens: their body starts sending new messages to their mind.

💫 “I’m attractive.”

💫 “I’m strong.”

💫 “I’m invincible.”

And the portraits we create together become proof of that transformation.

So many women have told me they walked in feeling unseen, rejected, “not good enough”… and left standing taller, full of confidence, ready to show up differently in every area of life.

This isn’t just about photos. It’s about rewiring how you see yourself.

📸 Ill give you a safe space to do something courageous for YOU. Strip back the body shame. Step into your feminine power.

Because once you change the lens on how we see ourselves, our life, our everything looks different.

Love,
Alexandra x

Want me to style it more minimal & aesthetic (like something you’d see on a calm, beige-toned feed) or bold & energetic (with emojis and a “motivational speaker” vibe)?

Back in the For Your Eyes Only Portraits studio after the bank holiday. 📸 This morning I’m shooting a Bride-to-Be who’s putting together a wedding gift her groom.

I love working with brides on these sessions — it’s all about confidence. With veils here in the studio to style and play with, you get to see yourself in a new way and create images that feel bold, intimate, and completely yours.

Just in time for the wedding day!

🥰 “These pictures are from my 3rd boudoir shoot at FYEO Portraits.

🥰 “These 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.”

“Today I wore my favourite sparkly shoes, a crisp white shirt, and carried with me a story that isn’t always easy to tell.”

“In 2019, I was diagnosed with severe endometriosis. Since then, I’ve had four surgeries. Four times I’ve gone under the knife, four times I’ve had to piece myself back together. These scars—both the ones you can see and the ones you can’t—mark chapters of resilience that I never imagined I’d have to live through.”

“My body is different now. It looks different, it feels different. But through all the pain, the recoveries, the ups and downs, I’ve grown stronger. I’ve learned to advocate for myself in ways I never thought I could.”

“And yet… if I’m 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 feeling—the quiet slip of losing touch with yourself while you’re just trying to survive.”

“That’s why today mattered so much. This shoot was about showing up for myself.”

“Stronger now.” Jodie 🦋

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve lost your shine, I hope you know it can come back. Maybe not all at once, maybe not in the same way—but with patience, courage, and a little bit of sparkle, it can return.

Here’s to healing, to rediscovery, and to never giving up on the version of ourselves we still dream of becoming. 💫
