Amid events, activities, tasks, and to-do lists people try to prove themselves and forget about their authentic self. They can’t afford to stop and look inside anymore. Most of the time, people are also afraid to do it. What if they find someone who doesn’t fit social standards, who’s tired or unhappy? Even when they look in the mirror they often see a fake image, a reflection of society’s opinion on them rather than their true self.
“If you're lonely when you're alone, you're in bad company.” - Jean-Paul Sartre
It takes courage to book a solo photo session because you can’t hide from the camera. The camera never lies and doesn’t care about social standards. The camera sees beyond all your masks and captures not only appearance but also personality, mood, and feelings. During a solo photo session, you discover the real you, the one you’ve left behind, and that can be empowering and overwhelming at the same time. Especially for women, a solo photo session in Hawaii is an amazing experience that helps them see themselves in a new light.
Hawaii is a great place to rediscover yourself, embrace inner beauty, and cultivate femininity. The landscape supports you on this journey and reminds you that we’re all part of the universe. We’re different and that’s good. Hawaii doesn’t judge and teaches us the lesson of gratitude and love. You won’t be alone in front of the camera. The ocean and the sun will be there with you.
Many people feel awkward in front of the camera. They don’t know what to do or how to pose. They overthink each move. This is the sign of an inner disconnection: the one you are and the one you think you are (or ought to be) are different. A solo photo session allows you to reconnect, accept, and let go of misconceptions and comparisons. The camera is there for you, the beautiful woman walking barefoot on the beach. It’s one moment of your life and you should cherish it. It doesn’t matter how you look, what you wear, or how much money is in your bank account. Your femininity and strength will break through each image. It’s a hard challenge but the reward is outstanding. Feeling good about yourself, being truthful to yourself, and loving yourself and others are the only things that can bring us happiness.
