All of the images in this story are self portraits from my 365 project (except for the one with the girl under the canopy) I got into this subject matter initially because photographing myself was very convenient and kept me safe from rejection from other people. But it slowly became therapeutic for me to spend time alone with my camera in beautiful places. Now self portraiture is more about the process than the final outcome for me.
These are all very important to me because they are some of the most magical images I have created recently. I feel as though they all very familiar and they are mine, but they have a variety to them as well. I am proud that I can create images that have the same subject matter but feel like I am creating a thousand different people. I love playing a character and these just show some of the many characters I take on.
