Intimate Self-Portraits
For me, self portraits are among the most challenging types of photography. For all my skill in helping others gain confidence in front of the camera, when it comes to myself, I feel like I need as much help as anyone else. Each of these photos took several outtakes, deep breaths, and giving myself permission to be seen, in a vulnerable way. I think that the best work happens when you can let go of yourself and give it all up, and that’s what I tried to do here.
