I've been diligently working on my self-care "bingo" card for the month [updated from this one], and today I finally decided to check off the box that says "inner light photo session." In 2012, I had done a similar photo shoot in my backyard, setting up my camera for a rapid series of shots, all in an attempt to capture and express my inner light.
This time around, I opted for a portrait session focusing on different expressions and moods. To be honest, it's hard to be vulnerable but I feel like it's so good for my heart when I push passed my self-criticism. I deliberately chose to convert some of the photos to black and white, finding that it helped eliminate distractions, allowing a more true essence shine through. With each passing year, I want to embrace myself more fully and accept the person I'm becoming.
So here's my encouragement to you: why not schedule your own photo session? It's a chance to unleash your creativity, have some fun, and most importantly, let your inner light radiate for all to see.

Selfies are typically casual snapshots taken with smartphones, primarily for social media or personal communication. They're often spontaneous and focus on capturing moments or activities. In contrast, self-portraiture is deliberate and artistic, where the photographer creates an image to convey a specific message, emotion, or idea .Artists throughout history have created self-portraits as a way to explore their own identity, skills, and artistic vision.
