"You let people take pictures of you like this?"
"How do you feel about people seeing these pictures."
"Does your family know you're doing this?"
"Are you a model?"
"How do you even do that or hold poses like that?"
Let's be real, we all get questions like this and then some. But what do we all tell them?
Ever since I had the courage to take my photos for my set, all of my answers have changed from what they used to. And im loving it. These photos changed my whole perspective on why I wanted to do this in the first place.
I'm definitely not a model 😂. Half the time I have no idea what to do with my arms or face. After im done, I feel great but then my body gets sooooo sore as if I just worked out or walked for days. Let me tell ya, its a lot of work and its so much more difficult than it looks.
But the payoff .
Holy shit, that's me??!
How can someone thats battled with an auto-immune disease since she was young, to many of abusive relationships, being overweight and unhealthy, struggling to have a stable psyche, to so many other life struggles way too young in life.....How??..can they ever look like that and feel like that?
She looks.. Happy. Comfortable in her skin. Proud about her body. Powerful. Graceful.
She overcame every.single. horrible thing in her life by her own will. She let go of everything and is so trusting with herself that she's..free.
It took me so long to realize that I was under there this whole time. That strong, happy, beautiful girl was always there yelling to get out and I always ignored it.
Looking at my set all the time really reminds me how special that day was, and im so thankful someone I love very much saw that transition in me that he knew was there long before I did.
How powerful it that?
My eyes sparkle different now. I carry all the heavy shit different now.
Thank you "IVY"
