Self Portraits Pt. 1

I did something a bit out of my comfort zone the other days. I've been slowly getting more comfortable in front of the camera. For years I shied away from being photographed, for so long I preferred to be the person taking the photos rather than being included in them. I was afraid that these photos would highlight the things I was most afraid about myself. I was terrified all the imperfections and insecurities that I felt on the inside would be magnified and manifest themselves in the photos. So while there are photos of myself throughout middle school and high school, looking back I wish I had so many more.
