Never stop growing...


I took this self portrait one particularly challenging day. These trees stand tall beside my home, and I have yearned to capture them for the longest time. The process began in tears, and ended with a joy in my heart I could only find within myself. This image is the first of a series of three. The series is titled "never stop growing, sweet girl."








Thank you iheartfaces for having a place for me to share a piece of myself.
