Since I turned 40 last week, there have been so many revelations, and layers revealed, at an accelerated pace 🌸 I have had to come to terms with the fact that some dreams may never come to light, and I have had to face the fact that time is passing, and that I am aging! I have realized that movement is the surest way into my body and that that is something I’d like to stay here awhile for. I’ve recognized some coping mechanisms — like avoidance — need to go, and that I am capable of that. Since I am a creative person that feels like she’ll lose touch with herself if she’s not creating, I made a promise to myself — that I would get up and sit on my yoga mat in the mornings, for 30 minutes, for 30 days, for the next 30 years. I realize that that will carry me into my 70s, in my body, and that ultimately that’s all I have to do, really. Stay here and stay present. I am willing to let the work of that bring me towards the work & life I want for myself, and let the universe surprise me with the rest. I am hopeful for the best for all ✨

Last year I traveled the country with my project May We Rise, and I sat on public sidewalks, naaked, to demonstrate that nuudity is a state of being, and the bodies are a work of art. It was a combination of myself trying to prove something, and change the state of the world, and, a deeply growing experience, to be so freely seen in that way.

This year, having walked through many a personal fires over my time in Billings, and now being nomadic for almost 3 months straight — rarely sleeping in one place more than two nights in a row — I am being pushed to change myself, so that I may more naakedly be of service to the world.

I have a potential shoot in the chute, and what is fascinating to me is that I can begin to feel it taking shape, even before it’s taken shape. I can feel a reciprocity there that feels like it’s a “different rule” than before, when I lived in the mindset of “photographer” and “subject”, and more willingness on my side was the only consideration. True collaboration, is at hand, and that feels beautiful, and respectful, and reverent.

I’m turning 40 tomorrow and I’m just so excited, even though things still feel so messy as I make this transition, and there is a level of grace that wasn’t there before, and a sense of innocence that is growing, slowly, still-ly, but surely (and shore-ly for my double water moon sun signs ☺️).

I want to thank you for being a part of my journey, if you’ve been here a while, and I want to thank you for joining if you’re new, or going to be new, here 🌠.
With love,
Jenifer 🌹

I’m still working the traditional advertiser out of my system. I made these the other with the intention of not sharing them, but they’re a good part of my creative process, and sharing that feels valuable 💫 Here’s my spin on an old “smoking ad”:
“Maybe we wouldn’t smoke so much if we were actually the land of the free and were allowed to get naaked more without it being such a big deal? So that we saw more bodies like ours? Or just saw more bodies in general to remind us that we’re all human beings on planet earth trying to live here in these bodies? Being naaked isn’t a crime.”
That would be helpful to me, for sure, because even though I know with my mind that we are not all the stories that all of the material things around us tell us that we are, it sure is tricky to pe*****te those stories on a daily basis, and a constant visual reminder would be helpful 🌟
I think it would help us to connect to the natural world more, as well, which feels like such a deep grief that lives in all of us — especially when we are in places of great beauty, like forests, or national parks, or bodies of water, and feel the inhibiting rules more sharply — an undeveloped/untouched land that we can’t truly be free in, or with, in the way our ancestors were.
Grief grows and gets trapped in the lungs, so perhaps a good “airing out” would help. This is my visual interpretation and ode to that more visual, naaked world ❤️‍🔥

An offering ✨
_______________________________________

If you are sensitive, you likely have a big heart
If you have a big heart, you likely have a lot of love
If you have a lot of love, you likely have a big presence, and a large magnetic field
And if you have a large magnetic field, you likely change the shape of the air around you
If you change the shape of the air around you, you likely make others uncomfortable
If you make others uncomfortable, you likely make yourself small, because it makes *you* feel uncomfortable
And if you make yourself small, you likely believe that it’s all your fault
— but it’s not —
Maybe, making others uncomfortable is a good sign
Maybe, it’s a sign that just by being you, you’re changing the air around you
Maybe, it’s a sign that just by being yourself, you’re raising the standards for the very air we breathe
And maybe, you’re recognizing that being uncomfortable is a good thing, because it no longer has to mean it has anything to do with you *personally*
So maybe, you can just stay your same size in the world that grows and changes around you,
and maybe, you don’t have to shrink
maybe, you can let that uncomfortableness swirl around you, with a tender smile in your heart, and a twinkle in your eye, because you know how uncomfortable it is, to be uncomfortable
Maybe, you can simply let it be, because you know that change is afoot, and you@know that change is always
*good* 💖

A few months ago I volunteered to photograph a vigil held here in Billings to bring awareness to the number of missing indigenous people. Among the attendees was a face that caught my attention and I found myself offering to make photos for him, believing he could model, but also, because it felt like something unfinished was at hand that I couldn’t name. His mother mentioned she’d just asked the lord to ‘help this boy model’ so it felt very kismet. ✨ A few years ago I came across a small pocket size book of Indigenous Wisdom with photos made by Edward S. Curtis. I became obsessed with Edward’s work — the beauty of his images and his story — and I resonated with the way he had made it his life’s work to preserve the indigenous ways. Also the work felt familiar, in a way? ✨ When George Old Elk (the young gentleman) and I began our shoot I learned that he was the 5th generation descendant of Curley — a Crow Scout who was linked to a battle here in Montana in 1876. I felt a sense of lineage come through during the shoot, and felt a ‘responsibility’, in a way, to do right by it. A few weeks after the shoot I ended up visiting the site of the battle (the Battle of Little Bighorn) — surprised that it felt familiar — and found out that Edward Curtis had also visited that site, 40 years later. ✨ To be linked to a photographer who’s work resonates deeply, of a past subject linked to a current subject, through the act of photography — all of whom had walked on the same land — made for a very profound experience all around, and what I would call a ‘timeline collapse’. ✨ To be given this gift in a time when chaos is more rampant than ever feels like an anchor to the only timeline that exists — the present moment — and I’m hopeful for more of these experiences in the future ❤️‍🔥 The last two slides are 01) George Old Elk’s ancestor Curley, and 02) Edward Curtis with three Crow Natives likely named Goes Ahead, Hairy Moccasin, and White Man Runs Him, along with one unnamed / unidentified Crow Interpreter. May we know and say all unidentified/missing indigenous people’s names 🔴 ✋
