I take self portraits because sometimes I have an idea that won’t stopping banging on the door of my brain, or because I find a particular place beautiful and want to insert my body into the scene.

I photograph myself when I am feeling big feelings and as an act of self-acceptance after years of loathing. 

Sporadically, erratically, messy and put together, dressed up and down, smiling and screaming and spinning and wailing, posing and flowing.  All of the glorious WOWOWOW of being alive. 

I take self portraits to prove I exist. I am here. Human, being. Perfect EXACTLY as I am. Art.

(Also, If you can’t connect with yourself how the hell are you gonna connect with your clients?!)
