You know what's TERRIFYING?? Being photographed. Especially just you. Standing in front of someone, who is holding a camera, watching, seeing, capturing you. It can feel awkward, confronting, wildly uncomfortable and can bring up all of your doubts, insecurities, and not-enoughness.
Not just because you're being seen. But because you're facing yourself. With nowhere to run.
The inner-critic gets LOUD. "My skin is too lumpy", "I look disgusting", "I should have worn something else", "I wish my hair was better", "she probably thinks I look disgusting", "why are my b***s saggy?", it's never ending.
There is so much fear. Fear of judgment, of not measuring up, of being captured in a way that doesn’t match how we wish we looked or felt.
But if you allow yourself to stay in it, to breathe through it, something shifts.
Perhaps you might begin to soften.
Or notice little flickers of strength in your eyes, the life in your smile, the beauty in your presence… not despite the discomfort, but because of it.
That’s where the magic lives.
Not in perfection, but in the action in showing up, exactly as you are, nerves, critical thoughts, jiggly bits, all of it!
Having the courage to be show up, to be seen, to face yourself, to put yourself in front of a camera (arguably one of the most uncomfortable positions ever!!), in front of me, to be witnessed, seen and captured as you are, is an incredibly liberating experience that, regardless of the outcome, is one that you could be incredibly proud of.
Do you feel like this is something you'd like to experience? This is just a part of the incredible day Cristy is putting together for UNTAMED + WILD.
You won't just be thrown in, unready. The whole day will support you to settle in to your body, into your expression, so when the time comes for photos, you'll be able to step into it and enjoy the experience.
