When I got my first tattoo, at 19, it was when I discovered the site.

I was browsing and googleing tattoo designs to get inspired and start designing my next tattoos and it was when I saw Radeo, the first suicide I met. I fell in love with her instantly, then I looked for more photos and that's when I found Suicidegirls.com. Some time later I met two Mexican suicides, which were I decided that I definitely wanted to be a model of the site: The beautiful @wolf and @vikat

A totally new and exciting world opened for me. Meet so many different, beautiful, unique models ... see how they broke with the aesthetic standards imposed to be able to model, to be able to express themselves through photography without being rejected by size, height, race, for that something that makes us unique to each person.

That's when that spark ignited, I needed to be part of the community, but as time went by I was putting it off. I was scared not to find a professional photographer, I was terrified to find someone who wanted to take advantage of me and my dream of being on the platform.

Until a few months ago I met @gitanna , rather: I was fortunate that she found me and encouraged me to enter. Even with fears and insecurity about my body (since I become a mother two years ago and my body went through many transformations in such a short time) I decided to do it, we began to plan my debut set and in a couple of weeks there I was, in front of the camera, feeling butterflies in the stomach and thinking “will I look good?” “will people like this? "Is my body not weird?"

Time passed so quickly that, as soon as the first shots of the camera were heard, I completely forgot those questions. Gitanna gave me all the confidence and comfort with her beautiful and professional way of being. When we finished and I could see the incredible shots, I finally discovered and after so many years self-love. All the insecurities I had vanished, I felt amazing, I loved every part of my body, I fell in love even with my imperfections. From that day until now I am a different person, not only because of what I learned after shooting, but also, I have met wonderful, strong, beautiful women outside and inside who have hugged me from the start. They have become totally my role model and have occupied an important place in my heart. Yes, I am talking about you: @melusine2908 , @gret , @kinich , @Wolf, @aradiamx , @mataro and of course Gitanna. Thanks, with all my heart.
