This is the first session I did as a model after a 14-year pause. A magnificent reminder of female beauty in all its forms A feeling I had lost and was desperately trying to find again! These are the first photos I dared to take after leaving a long-term abusive relationship. When you have been told for years that you are not good enough, that you are not beautiful enough, and you must hide your femininity and sexuality in the darkest corner possible, it is difficult to shine.

But here, in this photos, I am shining! This is a gift I gave myself for my birthday, and I saw myself with new eyes. I never believed that a lingerie photo shoot could pull you out of such a dark place.

The images were published in Boudoir Inspiration magazine years later.
The feeling of freedom is that feeling inside you when you can afford to be yourself.

To the wonderful team I had the opportunity to work with.
