Why Photography is Important

I took this bathroom selfie in 2011. It was almost 2 years after my last child was born. I’d worked hard (and starved my self a little) to get here. I took the picture because I felt beautiful. I loved that girl. 

Today, I’m not even close to that size. I’m probably 30+ pounds heavier. But I love myself just as much, if not more. 


Here’s the point.

Some of you are waiting to be skinner/prettier/different to be photographed. What I know for sure, is that time does not guarantee that you’ll meet your goal weight or size. Love the body you’re in. Get beautiful photos of yourself AND with the people that you love.
