Nicole has inspired so many people just by facing her fears. I’m so grateful for her because she decided to have a photoshoot that took a lot of guts.
Hearing that this photoshoot changed her life was the dream I had when I started this project. I want women to see themselves in a beautiful light, knowing they are not what society or even individuals have told them in the harshest ways.
After the photoshoot, she came to my networking event and shared her story and we all stood in awe of her vulnerability and journey. It’s a little too personal to share all the details here, but trust me, getting to know her is worth it.

How did the photoshoot impact you?
