Motherhood: A Self-Portrait, My Story

My “Motherhood Self-Portraits” project explores an act of vulnerability—getting in front of the camera, but also what it means to be both connected and free in motherhood. For example, feeling invisible in motherhood, longing for myself within motherhood, and the intimate love and connection that is motherhood. It’s sometimes so intimate and intertwined, that you don’t know where they end and you begin. The process of putting this together has been so healing and helped me to acknowledge my experience, my feelings, and express them through photographs instead of burying them deep inside.
