What Makes You Beautiful?

In a world flooded with social media and unrealistic beauty standards it's getting more and more difficult to feel comfortable in your own skin. We often spend so much time focusing on what's wrong with our bodies or how much more beautiful some one else's body is that we forget to appreciate our own.

This is what inspired me to hold the "What Makes You Beautiful?" Portrait Sessions. All women deserve to feel beautiful and sometimes we're so busy that we forget to make the time. We can be so critical of ourselves and I wanted these women to see themselves through someone else's eyes for all that they truly are: strong, happy, confident, empowered, stunningly beautiful women.

As women it is so important to build each other up and I saw this as a way I could do so within my community. Thank you to all the women who participated. I can't wait to do it again! Maia Anstey Photography
