Rachel

The Vulnerability Project has started. Here is the first set of images from my Vulnerability Project, where we explore empowerment through vulnerability. You can read about the project here.

I ask my models to be vulnerable every time they step in front of the camera. So I decided late last year to do some art nude modeling myself to face my discomfort with my aging body. It was an incredibly valuable experience for me, so I invited others to have the experience of facing their fears or concerns around their bodies and posing nude for the first time. 

Rachel was one of the first to step up. We had shot on a couple of previous occasions, but this was her first time doing an art nude shoot. We started the shoot by replicating some classical poses and then went on to play with fabric. She had just purchased a great bodysuit and so we finished off the shoot by getting some images of her in that outfit. I’ll post her experience with this in the near future.
