How to budget & Invest in yourself with this experience : North Carolina Boudoir & Erotica Photographer
One of the biggest complaints that most people have when it comes to investing in a boudoir or erotica session is the cost. I get it, it is a lot to spend on yourself, but YOU ARE WORTH IT!
A lot of people say, “that’s a lot for just pictures,” but it isn’t just pictures, you are investing in with brii at The boudoir Studio-it is a whole, empowering life changing and self revelation experience. It is so much more than pictures you walk out with its a renewed you. - Believe me I’d know Ive invested in two experiences here with brii before she brought me on to the team & even now I have another on the books and am on a payment plan for it!
Its beyond worth it and I know everything brii provides is worth investing in myself with.
Let’s talk about budgeting in general first. We are all familiar with the concept, and we have all had to do it at some point. I am someone who budgets pretty much everything. We buy nothing extra until our core bills are paid. My bills rarely change per month but I definitely still budget each month so that I don’t miss anything, and so I know how much I have leftover to apply towards anything we WANT (because our needs are taken care of with my basic budget).
If you aren’t someone who budgets, I applaud you, because my mind just can’t handle not seeing the incoming and outgoing each month, but also know if you aren’t there are such easy ways to start! Something I learned in the past, you should also always budget for entertainment-which includes outings or going out to eat, or simply play money to have when you are out and about and see something you want.
So you’ve made it this far and now you are trying to figure out how to fit a session in your budget, which is AWESOME, but you don’t know where to start.
There are so many options for how you can do this, but we have created a generic breakdown to give you an idea on how it can absolutely be something you can fit in to your unique budget. We have many prepayment options for you to choose from, and can work with you to figure out how often you need to make payments in order to be paid off prior to your session.
Obviously, the further out you schedule, the easier it is to budget your session and products. Let’s say you schedule out 18 months, you could get the largest package and only $63 per week. Still seems steep? Look at where you can cut back or where you may waste your money. Are you stopping for a coffee each day? Eating out for lunch every day? How about grabbing a soda here or there? That $5-10 adds up quickly, and by cutting those things out or even down to half the amount, you end up with money to put towards your session. Keep in mind, this is also breaking down the largest package, and if you go with the lowest package pictured, that’s only $30 a week for 18 months. There are packages and products for every budget, it’s just a matter of breaking down where you can cut back.
When you spend your money are you spending to fill a void? are you enjoying what you spend on to its fullest potential or are you just spending? When I think about my spending habits I can see where I just spent because I was bored, in a mood etc. I buy things that wont really make me happy but in the moment was a fun buy. I mean how many of us do that on amazon and shein? Instead you can literally send that little bit of money to your boudie bank and build up til your ready for your session!
Every time you send a payment youll get an exciting investment in yourself email and printable too so you feel like you actually went shopping! :D
Bottom line is: this is an investment for more than just pictures, this is an investment in YOU, and YOU ARE WORTH IT.
