There is a sickness in our society, that started in Hollywood, and lives inside the minds of every woman now. Somewhere along the line, we have a distorted image in our heads of what, “perfection” or “beauty” looks like on the outside.

Somehow we’ve given Hollywood, and the media the power to dictate what we as women look like. We’ve went from being healthy to starving ourselves trying to re-create this photo-shopped perfection. I’m telling you today, please don’t give in to the hype. If you want to workout, and get fit, do it for yourself. Don’t do it, because it’s what everyone else is doing, or to impress anyone. Do it for yourself, because you simply want to be healthy, and fit.

To me Jennifer Lawrence is just beautiful. So when I first heard rumors of this quote she said going around, I had to check it out for myself: 

I know she’s trying to be a good role model for girls in terms of body image, but do we really need to justify ourselves to the media? Do we have to justify our body to anyone? I do applaud her for taking a stand, and from what I understand talking about body image gets her fired up. It should get us all fired up. Nobody should have the right to tell us, what “the perfect size” is.

We are all different. We have different personalities, we have different tastes, we have different styles, and we have different body sizes. But we all have one thing in common: We want to share our story(our life). We want to leave a legacy for the ones who follow behind us.

This business has been born out of a desire to help women find their natural beauty, their natural strength. Forget the media, forget Hollywood, I don’t photograph models. I photograph real women, in the modern world. I want to tell their stories, I want to tell YOUR story. Whether you are 16 years old, or 90 years old. God has made you wonderfully(Psalms 139:14). You are perfect just as you are.

My hope, and my desire is that you will let me photograph you just as you are right now. Let’s reverse what Hollywood, and our modern media has done to women.

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.  And I’m excited to capture your life.
