As the middle point in the week, Wednesday is often referred to as “Hump Day”. I like to celebrate “Hump Day” with fun, interesting, or thought-provoking posts about what should be one of a couples’ favorite times together… The Hump! Enjoy!
I’m not planning a wedding, but I keep Ashley’s Bride Guide on my daily blog reading diet because the site is just plain fun and informative. Also, most of the tips are transferrable to any event planning, so it is so totally relevant.
Thankfully, my love for ABG allowed me to find out about boudoir photography that is going on right here in Nashville! Dove Wedding Photography is hosting what they are calling a Sweets Event on January 24th and 25th. Ladies get to spend time at a Nashville hotel, drinking champagne, getting professional makeup done, and flirting with the camera. In the end they get to go home with amazing pictures to give to the man in their life.
I am loving this idea for so many reasons that it is hard to keep them straight!
Men are visual
Men are visual. Men. are. visual.
Their engines get revved when they see your body. He doesn’t want to keep the lights on so that he can point out your cellulite. No! He wants to keep them on because he loves seeing the skin and the curves. To get tasteful pictures of you in all your sexual glory will have him knowing he is the luckiest guy in the world!
Confidence is key
Our culture runs on the belief that you’re only sexy when you look like Carmen Electra. Since less than 2% of females comes close it stands to reason that we should be ashamed of our bodies… No! Of course not!
Confidence is so important in the bedroom. It is more important than flat abs and a big bust. Luckily, confidence is also easier to get than flat abs or a big bust. It is knowing that you are beautiful and valuable. I believe one of the most powerful things that this boudoir photo shoot can offer is being able to see yourself in a new light. Most of us decide that we’re not beautiful or sexual, and these photos would be tangible proof that you are so wrong.
Be vulnerable
Sex is not simply the satisfaction of physical needs. It is being vulnerable with another, showing them a side of ourselves that we allow no one else to see. This wouldn’t simply be the gift of sexy photographs, this gift would be just a touch more glue in the bond between you.
This Hump Day give him something beautiful and confident to look at, and while you’re at it… take a picture!
