"For many years I struggled with my self-image. It didn’t matter how skinny I was; I never felt pretty enough. The crazy thing is that when I looked at old photos, I wished to look like that again. So now, I realized that I am already perfect just as I am, and I didn't want to wish for the body I have now when I am older—It was time for me to celebrate it now!
To celebrate my body, I decided to do a boudoir photoshoot with Niki in Oakland. Niki helped me see the beauty in me and celebrate every part of me. I not only felt beautiful, but I also felt like a living art under her direction and vision. I won't lie that I wasn't nervous and scared, but Niki made me feel super comfortable. The best part is how Niki let me control how the photoshoot went. She was very respectful and mindful of my needs and feelings."
"The other highlight of working with Niki is how I felt like a superstar. When I arrived at her studio, there was even a welcome sign with my name at the door. She also played music which set the mood and helped me not be nervous. Niki also helped guide me with the poses, which she even demonstrated herself. I also love that my hair and makeup were done on-site by the wonderful Diana. I can't wait to do another photoshoot with Niki in the future!" ~ Mrs. E
