A series capturing each person’s personality authentically in their portrait. their raw reaction after seeing their portraits becomes part of their narrative.

I always feel excited to see how portraits turn out. They feel more intimate and personal, which I think gives you a unique chance to see yourself in a new way. I love noticing each photographers' personal touch and unique style that gets incorporated into each photo shoot and final images. Definitely an empowering feeling!

Seeing myself in a portrait feels like meeting one version of me and realizing there are countless others waiting to be explored.

As someone who is camera shy, seeing myself in a portrait lets me view myself from a different perspective. it's like seeing a version of me that I don't always notice in everyday life.
“What does it feel like to see yourself in a portrait?” is a photo series I created. After each session, I invited each person to share their genuine reaction to seeing their portraits, turning that moment into their narrative. I wanted to move beyond just taking a few portraits and instead capture each person’s personality authentically, then witness their raw response to the images themselves. Seeing those positive reactions always inspires me. There’s something beautiful about being captured in a portrait that truly reflects who we are at our core.
