A little about me----My name is Candace Gurley, I am your photographer and personal hype woman, I am a wife, a mommy, a major book worm, and I'm what you may refer to as a bit of a photography fiend. Some call my love of photography an obsession; I call it a passion. Either way, one thing's for certain: I love taking pictures! Better yet, I love taking pictures of people. Landscapes are cool, but there's something about engaging with real life humans that takes my job to the next level of fun. I feel so lucky to get to do what I love.

As women, we often have a critical voice in our head, telling us we're not good enough. We compare ourselves to others, scrutinize our flaws and focus on what we don't like about ourselves. But what if there was a way to silence that negative voice and unleash your confidence? What if there was a way to celebrate your body, your femininity, and your unique beauty? There is, and it's called a boudoir session.

Celebrate Your Body Through Boudoir Photography | Biloxi, MS

The importance of self-love and body confidence has grown in our society, but it can be difficult to learn how to practice those values. Boudoir photography can be a great way to celebrate your body and help you become more comfortable in your own skin. Let’s explore why boudoir photography is such an empowering practice.

Mrs. S's Boudoir Session | Mississippi

“Seeing my finished photos was a huge confidence booster. This middle-aged, post-four-kids body's still got it! I did the session as a gift for my husband but I feel a bit selfish because I think I got more out of it than he did (even though he LOVED the photos, definitely the best gift I've given him in 16 years of marriage). It has been really hard for me not to share any of the pics on social media (I'm in a career where that wouldn't be appropriate). I didn't expect to want other people to see them but I'm really proud of them, I look hot!”

“Before doing this shoot with Candace, I never imagined myself being this adventurous behind a camera. I’ve always been super shy and conservative, but after seeing her work, I knew I wanted some of her shots. It’s artwork in the form of lingerie and beauty.

After I signed up, I will admit, I was still super nervous to take the plunge because that’s my impurities, my imperfections, out there for the world to see, but then I realized a part of this process is coming to terms with the fact that if you’re ok with your imperfections, other people will be too(if not then they don’t matter.) They may not even realize they are there. So after coming to terms with that- I was SUPER stoked!”…

Would you recommend this experience?

"YES! Do it for yourself! Stop worrying what others think about you and see yourself as the truly stunning and beautiful woman you are. This is not disreputable photography, this is ART and Candace is a wonderful ARTIST! She will show you exactly how beautiful you are! I could hug her every day for the rest of my life and still want to hug her twice later. " -Mrs. K

"You made me feel so at ease. You are absolutely the sweetest person, and you immediately feel like a best friend. I am not a shy person anyway, but I never felt uncomfortable with you in such an intimate situation. This really is my first and only boudoir photo shoot and I had no idea what to expect. I couldn't have asked for it to be better than it was. I loved how easy you made it."

"The entire experience was really life changing. I got there that morning feeling like the number on my scale was going to determine how my pictures turned out. I left there an hour later and felt like a goddess. I felt free. That session made me realize that I was more than just a mom, or a wife, or my weight. I realized that I'm still sexy. I've still got a fierce lioness living inside me. It ended up being more of a gift for my well-being my self worth than it was a gift for my husband."
