Everything that you’re ashamed of, all the parts you keep secret, everything you want to change about yourself…
It’s who you are.
It’s your power.
Deny it, and you’re nothing!
It’s who you are.
It’s your power.
Deny it, and you’re nothing!
I am currently working on a body of work called “Overcoming” that is primarily focused on woman who have overcome incredible obstacles in their lives. Today, I had a shoot with Livia, an amazing woman that over came anorexia and bulimia. I don’t want to give away the whole project before it’s done, but here are some of my favorite shots from the day!
Thank you Livia! You are truly inspiring!
Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
Steve Jobs, 1955-2011
