I've had so many wonderful commentsand emails about my pictures ...
and I thank each of you
who've taken the time
to write,
it means so much to me!
One of the topics that comes up often
is the fact that my photos are 'real'.
I'm far from being what the media
calls a "beautiful woman".
And that's ok with me --
we can't all look like popular models. So many pictures one sees in places
are either "just body parts"
or the women are so picture perfect,
its not real.
Real women have real curves.
We have scars, sags and bags.
We're not pencil thin, nor "perfect"
like the media and magazines portray --
who can live up to that?
My only intention when I started
was to take pictures that I enjoyed taking,
I didn't have an agenda
or felt the need to make a statement.
But as time has progressed,
I have seen the need for showing
there is beauty in every human body,
thanks to so many folks brave enough
to send me comments and email
in appreciation for what I do.
So I'll keep on doing what I do --
hopefully you'll keep on enjoying them.
Many thanks to each of you!

Your comments are so very true. There are few "perfect" women out there and frankly I so much prefer the ones, like you, who by there own admission are not perfect as a very small portion of society sees but your real. And that's how I like you. Your photos are so beautifully created and your comments on each so eloquent. Thanks so much for sharing.
