Today I shot my very first hopeful set that will go into Member Review in a few weeks. This has been YEARS in the making.
First, I have to admit that the days leading up to today, I ran the gamet of emotions between excited, and nervous and back again. It is hard to express all the emotions that go into knowing that thousands of people will now see me in all of my glorious nakedness. And yes, its glorious!
Even if my first set doesn't make "Set of the Day", I still will have accomplished something that most women only dream of doing. I've had lots of women come up to me and say, "wow, you're so brave to put yourself out there like that!" This comment has always surprised me. Not the brave, part- the putting yourself out there part. Guess what, world! I don't have a thigh gap! ( I actually laughed out loud as I wrote this because my patio doors are open and I contemplated screaming that off the balcony!) I'm not sure why anyone would be ashamed of that.. i digress.
In my set, I hope to represent the non-thigh gap women, the women who aren't a size two, the women who are imperfect with scars and bodily oddities that make them who they are. I hope to represent the uniqueness of all women, of all sizes who embrace themselves exactly as they are.
As soon as we began to shoot, all the butterflies went away and it turned into pure, amazing sexiness that I cannot wait to share with all of you!
