What made you book a boudoir session? I was excited to do this shoot because of so many things that I have been through. One year ago, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I went through chemo/radiation, surgeries, massive weight gain. Then two years later was diagnosed again, and had a double mastectomy with reconstruction. Went through a lot of other changes in my life, met a new guy that supports me, lost weight, and just feel so much better about my life now.
