I honestly thought I wasn’t going to be doing anything Valentines Day related this year, nevermind settling up shoots Valentine’s day weekend, moving on with my life, and getting my motivation back.

I was broken up with the day after my birthday by my ex of a year and a half. I was lost, confused, heartbroken, and angry. But that’s not the point to this blog.

Even though, I have been in absolutely no mood to smile, I needed to get in front of the lens again. Being in front of the camera means I can’t be judged. My head is held high and I smile. It’s a high like no other. I don’t know where I would be if I didn’t start my modeling journey a little over 6 years ago.

I was privileged enough to get to meet ChaCha VaVoom and Summer Rain of the 420 Nurses when I went to visit Cali in February of this year. Shooting with Summer reminded me that modeling was about loving myself. I needed to be comfortable being me or it would show in the photos.

So, for my valentines day shoot, I wore what made me feel beautiful. 420 Nurses.

I had a great time shooting with two wonderful friends. It was exactly what I needed to get back into the game.

So, this Valentines Day, I was my own Valentine. I spent it with my wonderful friends and it was a great weekend. I was dreading it for so long because I wouldn’t be getting the two roses I expected when I woke up in the morning, and the man I loved no longer loved me. But now I know that it’s totally okay.

I needed to love myself. I needed to grow.

It’s almost 5 months later and I’ve never been happier to be in my own skin. The point of this blog was to show that modeling is much more than a job could ever be. It’s helped me form connections with people I would have never dreamed of, and it keeps me in the pursuit of my own happiness. When I’m in front of that lens, I’m free.
