There is beauty in being unapologetically yourself


 Self-acceptance is not an easy state of mind to achieve, especially when our lives are consumed by social media. We sometimes base our self-worth on how many likes or swipes we receive from people digitally. We get caught up in comparing ourselves to others because it is so much easier to see how we differ rather than notice qualities that we share with the rest of humanity. In short, we feel connected but alone. And yet, the only thing all humans have in common is that every single one of us is unique. Our uniqueness is what makes us both distinct from others and exactly like them. The 50 people pictured in these photographs are all standing up for what it means to be unapologetically themselves and embrace what makes them unique.

The 50 people pictured in these photographs were asked 5 questions:

  1.  Tell us a bit about yourself that will help us understand why you want to be a part of this project.

  2. How has social media impacted your view of yourself?

  3. We all know people, including ourselves, who put forward an idealistic image of themselves that differs from the reality of how we know them to be. Why do you think this is such a common practice?

  4. Can you tell us a story about a person or an experience in your life, either positive or negative, that shaped who you are today?

  5. What is it that makes you unique?
