Project Beauty 365 with the Class of 2018 and 2017

I can’t even begin to tell you how proud I am of EACH GIRL that came to the Project Beauty 365 shoot. Our object was to accept every little part of our perceived imperfect selves and realize that we are perfect just the way we are. It sounds as if I also went makeup free and got in front of the camera but I haven’t done that yet.. it is very intimidating to feel vulnerable due to a fear of being judged. These seniors {and a couple of college freshman} showed me that it shouldn’t matter what others think, just what you think of yourself. 

Everyone has a story, you just have to listen. 

When someone listens to you, it makes you feel accepted, understood, important, valued and validated. It gives you a voice to help find yourself again.

I have discovered that listening to my senior clients is all it takes to give them that boost of confidence to step out and share who they are to the world. 

This age group is brilliant and inventive and inspiring! 

Please watch their video and see the gallery below to appreciate their acceptance and read the signs they held up stating what they see as beautiful. Not one mentioned a physical attribute and most of them were referring to their female influences such as their mom, grandma, sister or best friend. The people in their lives that are truly beautiful to them. <3
