Loved this photoshoot with Ash lynn, and with her permission, sharing her words alongside a couple of her beautiful portraits with you…

Body Image.

I've always had insecurities when I look in the mirror. From my hard work of dropping about 55 pounds; I always see the same young lady who was heavier.

To my stretch marks, to seeing some loose skin. The voices of people asking "when I was giving birth" when I was never pregnant.

People calling me Kim Jong-il, because I was a heavier korean growing up.

All those negative comments, have affected how I thought about myself which created unhealthy habit of what I thought perfection was.

Now all I get is " you need to put meat on your bones" "you probably have an eating disorder" "you're probably doing drugs"

"You need bigger breasts" "where's your butt"

Ultimately at the end of the day, we were not born to satisfy anyone.

As the days go on I've finally been able to appreciate the growth and transformation my body and mind have been through. I'm the healthiest I've been and the strongest.

Love yourself and embrace the beauty that was given to you.

Collaborating with Erin was an amazing experience; definitely get a boudoir/headshots done by her!

I’d love to talk with you about planning a shoot of your own!
