Kate Flashkate Bridal Make Up is the uber-talented artist behind all of the 21 Tales of Real Women hair & make-up.
When she was asked by one of our participants if she would have her portrait taken, she laughed it off.
“When I'm slimmer, when I’ve covered the grey hair, when I've slept more, when I'm less busy, when my skin is clearer.”
When she realised that these were just excuses, she transformed those words into “if not now, then when?”
"I normally hide behind the camera, [so] this is a massive push for me.”
And I completely get it. No matter how confident anyone may feel or come across when they’re in her element, being in front of the camera can feel vulnerable. And this is PRECISELY where the magic lies!
When there is no more hiding. When it’s no longer about comparison but all about enjoying, feeling, playing, appreciating, and celebrating what makes us who we are.
It was so exciting to watch Kate open up throughout her photoshoot and to be able to capture her warmth, her strength, her power, and her beauty in her portraits.
Thank you, Kate, for making everyone else feel beautiful always, and for trusting me to see you ❤
👇 Don't we all agree it would have been a real shame for Kate not to step in front of the camera?!
