Description



but how could you complain... when i'm so easily amused

i'd like to thank everyone for their kind comments, you have given me strength

This is not supposed to be artistic. I've felt down about myself for a really long time, and for a while I even removed all photographs of me, including my ID. I didn't plan this photoshoot, it just happened that i looked in the mirror while changing and decided to take a few photographs. Although I've been done 5 or 6 different self-portrait sessions over the last 10 months i haven't really been able to post them, but this one felt special.
It is not the most amazing composition, but I couldn't particularly move that closet and also decided that I did not want this to be a clean-cut shot, I wanted the particular quirks of my room.

This photograph is personal and it's supposed to be empowering for me. I didn't expect it to be this successful because my self-portraits usually aren't.

P.S. And I always wanted to jump on the "self-with-camera-impliednudity-shot" band-waggon

Absolutely stunning! You should spend more time in front of the camera! Not that I don't like your work, because I most certainly do! I could fave just about every pic, but that would be a bit over the top. You're so very talented! Not only are you a wonderful photographer, but you are a lovely model as well!

Sometimes you have to accept that self-image can be skewed by other circumstances, like what you feel, instead of what you see. Sometimes, it's helpful to take the perceptions of others as a possible truth.

It's true I don't know you, but I can see a wonderful spirit behind your eyes, and much creativity and vision in your photography. The art always speaks of the artist. Your beauty isn't just in the material, the corporeal, but in the wilderness of emotion and expression inside you.

Sincerely, you are lovely. Worry less.

I think they're really cute, and i love turquoise and mean her no disrespect. But you have the je ne sais quoi of being both redhaired, beautiful and having just something else about those eyes and that look that make it even more.

ANYWAYS, I understand where you were coming from and I know better than to try and fight against a woman to make her think she's gorgeous, but rest assured you are the most beautiful to a bunch of people, including myself.

Wow, you are an amazingly beautiful girl.. I saw this picture and sent it to my best friend with the words,"How can she possibly not feel pretty? She's gorgeous! She has perfect hair and skin and an awesome butt." (since he's a butt person haha) You are beautiful, girl. Never think otherwise
