Tommy asked if I would be interested in participating in the project and without hesitation, I told him I'd be honored. :) Here's my picture.
Imperfection: not perfect; defective or inadequate.
In short- I'm in the industry of modeling and in modeling, and I'm told on a daily basis that I'm never good enough. The comments rage from: you're too heavy, stop eating, smoke to curve your cravings, dress a certain way, your eye brows are too thin, you should consider breast implants, etc. I chose the word, "Imperfection" because of this and I used a cigarette as a prop to show why most models smoke; we all have to maintain a certain weight, size, and shape, because that is how the industry works--skinny always wins.
Throughout all of this pressure to be "perfect", I developed an unexplainable lack of confidence and constantly started doubting my self-worth. Anorexia became a mild temptation and I was entertaining the idea of getting my breasts augmented.
In closing, no matter what anyone tells you, you are all born with certain features for a reason. Be comfortable in your skin, embrace the beauty you have been given, and be proud that you have your own unique look. We are all created differently and that's a fact--- SO EMBRACE IT. :)
Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity to be apart of this project. I truly appreciate it and after doing this project, I can easily say, I'm proud to be perfectly imperfect.
