26.6.14

26.3.14 is about beauty

and the fear of losing it.

‍ ‍

Beauty has always been

a big part of my life.

for many years,

it was deeply connected

to my self-worth and identity.

I took this photo 2 months after

my 3rd child ellie was born.

I tried to take a self-portrait

and was not happy at all with

how I came out.

‍ ‍

I remember feeling

I had lost my beauty forever.

I decided to take the camera

and shake it while taking the photo 

to reflect my inner feeling

and also to avoid the image

of myself I didn’t like.

The photo captured

exactly how I felt:

Lost.

fearful.

scrambled.
