TRUTH UNTOLD: Boudoir Photography for Men A.K.A Dudeoir Photography

Who said that Boudoir Photography for Men is not a thing? We all have our fair share of flaws and insecurities with our bodies, men included.

Why have boudoir photography for men?

Boudoir Photography is most common for women as it is an avenue for them to portray their inner bombshell, to accept their flaws and their bodies while wearing almost nothing in front of a stranger who takes pictures of them.

Meanwhile, boudoir photography for men shows off more of their sensual side. It is a great opportunity for men to experience and show off their masculinity and their vulnerability.

About Boudoir Photography for Men

Boudoir shoots with men or those who identify themselves as male are often underrepresented. The reason behind this, “society” dictates that it is “not acceptable” for men to do boudoir photo shoots for themselves. Society tells us that men are not supposed to show their emotions, insecurities, or vulnerabilities. They expect men to show only their typical toxic masculinity that society keeps dictating to all individuals.

It’s not only women who are judged, but it’s also the same with men.

As a boudoir photographer, as long as it’s not causing harm to other people, people shouldn’t mock a man just because they choose to express themselves in whatever way they want. A man will not become less of a man just because they decide to show their emotions, flaws, and vulnerability. Nor are they any less human, for wanting to have their own boudoir photo shoot.

Empowerment should not be limited to certain sexuality or gender. Feeling empowered and knowing your self-worth isn’t something reserved for women only. It’s there for each and every one of us to reach out and grab, with open arms.

The sooner society can accept that men need to be heard on matters of their body image, self-worth, and self-confidence, the better. In this way, it will break the stereotypes and will help foster acceptance and less judgment in this world.
