Empowerment Studio Boudoir Model Call

Proof That Every Body (Including Yours!) is Allowed to Take Up Space

You’re curious about boudoir – maybe you’ve even had this on your bucket list for years. Or maybe you’ve never thought you were confident enough so you haven’t even let yourself consider it.

And now here you are! If you're comfortable signing an image release for your images, this is an amazing time to book a boudoir session -- because you get an amazing discount and get to be part of a beautiful movement where we celebrate ALL bodies out loud.

Here's the Truth

Capitalism, fatphobia, ableism, and every system that profits off us shrinking has trained most of us to disappear. To take up less space, hide the parts of ourselves we've been taught to be ashamed of, stay small so we're safe.

The Model Call is the opposite of that.

This is for the folks who are ready to be fully seen -- fat, queer, disabled, older, whatever "historically invisible in boudoir" looks like for you -- and who are excited to let their images ripple out in an Empowerment Studio magic sort of way. Because when one person chooses to be visible, it gives permission to everyone watching. Your visibility becomes someone else's proof that they can be visible too. There’s a big magic in that.

This Is For You If

  • You've had boudoir on your bucket list for years, and you're finally ready to book a session.

  • You're ready to throw love at yourself, see yourself in a new way, or just practice joyfully taking up space in the exact body you have right now.

  • You want an experience that shakes up your trajectory – cause here in the Empowerment Studio what we do is more than “just“ photography (though, dang, is it some magical photography). These photo shoots result in a whole shift in how you relate to yourself and the world around you.

  • You're comfortable with your images being shared publicly, and you like the idea of your visibility rippling out to someone else who needs permission to take up space in their own body too.

  • You’re ready to disrupt the media that has been getting more thin, more white, more able-bodied (very Y2K vibes).

  • You're fat, queer, disabled, aging, a caretaker (or a mix of a bunch of these things), and you know you deserve a chance to be fully cared for, and you want to receive that care in a space that is built specifically for you.

 
 
 
 
Kinzie has the ability to see you as you are, and give you a chance to see yourself as you can be. There is no judgement, no societal “shoulds,” just radical acceptance and celebration of you as a human who gets to exist and take up space on earth at exactly this moment. When you invest in the process of acceptance and celebration of yourself, the photos are just the icing on the cake (but WHAT icing!)

So what exactly is a Model Call? 

Not everyone chooses to share their boudoir photos with the world (totally cool — I can't express enough how important consent is to me when it comes to something as intimate as your boudoir photos and your bodies!). The Model Call is for the folks who do.

What’s included if I get selected as a Model for the Empowerment Studio?

You get to be photographed in an Empowerment Boudoir Session!

If your application is chosen, you’ll receive a significant discount on your boudoir photoshoot ($500 towards any boudoir collection!).

Please note: There will be a $200 booking fee due to lock in your spot which will go towards any purchase. Products and digitals are sold separately.
Head to empowermentphotographer.com/boudoir-guide to get a peek at the Empowerment Studio boudoir process as well as collections and à la carte pricing.

Applications are open until Tuesday, September 29th 2026 at 11:59pm central.

But wait! There are also some mega Model Call perks!

You get to share the love with a pal who also wants to be seen and feel beautiful:

Apply by Saturday, September 19 at 3 pm, and when you officially book your boudoir session, you'll unlock a free boudoir mini for you AND for a friend!

PLUS:

What have other people had to say about it?

My time with Kinzie was pure magic and giggles. It’s hard not to feel relaxed and fully connected to yourself with her. I had so much fun and found a deeper connection within myself that I had forgotten was even there. To say that all bodies and people are celebrated within the Empowerment Studio is an understatement.

She has a magical way of drawing out a part of yourself that either you have buried or neglected to see for yourself. I felt a power and energy within me draw out and it was contagious.

Kinzie has that perfect temperament and really brings you along throughout the whole process. If you are on the fence, it’s a leap worth taking.
— Amanda
This experience was EVERYTHING! Working with Kinzie was a DREAM! They made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. The pre-payment option is outstanding. There’s no way I could have made this session happen without it. I felt so cared for and understood. If you are on the fence about doing a boudoir shoot with EP, go all in! It will be the greatest experience of your life!
— Michelle

Okay, I’m in, how do I apply?

Yessssss! Let’s do this thing!! 

So, first things first – ideally it would be great if you could create a quiet moment for yourself. Maybe that means you need to put a door between you and the other humans (or non-humans) in your home. Maybe you want to light a candle or take some deep breaths. It won’t take long to fill out the form (about 5-10 minutes) but I do want you to be thoughtful about the process. 

Review the Boudoir Pricing Guide to make sure this is aligned with your budget (remember, we have awesome, flexible payment plans!)

Then! Fill out this form:

http://empowermentphotographer.com/apply

You'll attach 2 recent photos of yourself and tell us WHY you want to be chosen.

Also, PRO TIP: copy/paste your answers over into another document before submitting, just in case something happens with technology.

Accessibility note: If you need or would appreciate an alternate way to apply for this experience (maybe over the phone or on a video call instead of filling out the form), we are here to make that happen! Just send a quick email with the subject line “Model call assistance” to kinzie@empowermentphotographer.com and we can make it happen!

Applications are open until Tuesday, September 29th 2026 at 11:59pm central.
