When it comes to putting ourselves first for a change, us women always find an excuse not to do it. Here are 3 excuses women tell themselves to avoid booking a portrait session.
1. I need to lose weight first. No you don’t babe! We get so caught up in the expectations of society’s ridiculous standards that we forget to embrace ourselves in all our stages of womanhood. Trust me, I’m speaking from experience. You are perfect just the way you are!
2. This isn’t the right time. There’s no better time like the present. Life has taught me that time waits for no one. If you keep pushing back the things that make you happy until the time feels right, you’ll never get anything done. Whether it’s that dream vacation or that shoe you’ve been eyeing for weeks now or taking the leap in your career, the timing will never feel right. If you want it bad enough, you’ll find a way to make it happen.
3. It’s too expensive. Anything worth having is going to require an investment. You wouldn’t expect a full spa experience for the price of a mani/pedi or a European adventure for the price of a trip to your local zoo. Your images are just the icing on the cake. The unforgettable experience you’ll have, the confidence boost, the elevated feeling of sexiness, that’s priceless.
There will always be excuses you tell yourself not to do the thing. But ask yourself this, aren’t you tired of always putting yourself last?
