My Beauty - Dark and Moody
“Over the last few years, I’ve been on a journey back to loving my body. After experiencing sexual traumas and giving birth to 3 children, with the third ending in an emergency cesarean I didn’t have any love left for my body. I couldn’t look at myself naked in the mirror without crying, let alone allow someone else to photograph me in a boudoir session.
It’s been a big journey with learning a lot of different tools to help me with forgiving and loving myself and my body. I’ve now experienced a few nude shoots but what drew me to Marina was her love for the natural body. Finding her on social media and seeing her advocate for all women feel at home in their bodies really lit me up and I knew I wanted to work with her right then and there.
Seeing my images made my heart skip a beat! There weren’t any I looked at and didn’t like. I loved seeing the authenticity of me in a different setting as I had never done a full Boudoir shoot until now. Marina is a photographer I would not hesitate to work with over and over again. She put the beauty of me into a dark and moody theme and made me fall in love with myself all over again.
We are amazing in our own skin and we are all unique and we all deserve to feel good in the skin we are in.” - Shannii
