Life has a way of pulling us in many directions and in that whirlwind, it’s easy to lose touch with who we truly are. We get caught up in the noise whether it’s the stress of responsibilities, the endless comparisons brought on by social media, or the constant pressure to meat unrealistic expectations of how we should look, act or even feel. Over time, these pressures weigh us down, and that vibrant, confidant, unfiltered version ourselves starts to feel distant, even unfamiliar.

I showed up as nervous as ever and not quite feeling like myself. My confidence was down. I was worried about everything. How I styled my hair, how I did my makeup, my outfits and of course I was completely terrified of looking horrible in every shot! All of those nerves were there even though I already knew the photographer! She’s been one of my closest friends since high school so how the hell could I be so nervous around someone I’m completely comfortable with??
