"Having your picture taken can be really nerve-wracking. When you catch the lens of the camera staring through you, you can’t help but feel exposed...like, within the moment of the camera’s click you’ve willingly sold part of your soul. Working with Rebecca was different, it was freeing. Instead of feeling like I was being captured in a moment in time, I felt like I was sharing my truth. Through casual conversation I was able to relax and just be myself as the shoot carried on. I hope when you look at these photos you can see me for who I really am - a feisty mix of a confident, insecure, strong and loving woman."
