Little Black Book

Have you ever felt empowered by a self portrait?

I found myself telling clients – “there’s a reason why I became a photographer”  — so I DON’T have any photo’s of myself

I HATED having photo’s taken of me, I avoided it like the black plague.

TRUTH – I was avoiding myself.

15 years ago I felt lost, going through a dark night of the soul transition.  I no longer knew who I was, where I was going; or how to be strong for my kids.   This is the pivoting point – when I forced myself out of my comfort zone & stepped to the other side of the lens.  As much as I was scared to death to see who I was becoming …… I found the opposite happened.  I looked deep within myself to see I was there, waiting to feel alive.
