Today I booked the incredible hotel suite that I will be shooting my first hopeful set in at the end of this month. Lots of natural light, fun trinkets, tons of space.
I now have 28 days to prepare to do my first nude shoot. Yep, that's right. Aside from the two photos I have up on my profile, I've never taken a nude photo.
This community, and applying to be a Suicide Girl, is a chance for me to dive headfirst into alternative modeling and to finally show that I accept my body. It's been a long journey getting to even this point. Body dismorphia and lack of confidence have plagued me since I was a young teen, but I've decided somewhat recently that life is too short to have hangups about my body, my body that provides me life, my body that I've adorned with colors and art and words.
This shoot, and this new adventure, gives me a platform to be proud to be a woman, proud of my imperfections, and proud of my tattoos that mean so much to me.
On June 30, I'll strip down and build myself up with my trusted photographer at my side. I cannot wait to just let it all go.
Peace.
