"Failure is inevitable, unavoidable but failure should never get the last word. You have to hold on to what you want. You have to not take take no for an answer and take what's coming for you. Never give in, never give up. Stand up. Stand up and take it. Hold the vision, trust the process." _____ "There's nothing more beautiful than a confident woman." _____ _____ Fighter🥊: @lovefola Photographer: @islandboiphotography _________________________________ #Islandboiphotography #lovefola (at New York, New York)

"Our strength as women is not captivated by our outer beauty. It is seen through our grace in times of troubles. How we are able to birth an army. It’s through our nurturing for others and ourselves. Our strength to uplift even when chaos dances at our doorstep. It’s the courage to accept who we are, where we are and doing the best with what we have in the present. Women of strength continue to swift through life with your head held high as the Queen of your tribe." _____ _____ Model/KTS Survivor: @bellenge Mua: @callme_trice using @patmcgrathreal line *Venom 2 lipstick and clear vinyl gloss* Headwrap Stylist: @empressak Headwrap: @empressivefinds Wardrobe Stylist: @yomistyling Assistant: @nytolouissaint Photographer: @islandboiphotography _________________________________ #islandboiphotography #beatsbytrice #empressivefinds #berlangestory #berevealed #kts (at New York, New York)

I see beauty. I see authority. I see creativity. I see power. But above all I see love. I could care less about anything you've been taught prior to this very moment. This is who you are. This is you are designed to be. This is who you're always going to be!" words from @Moshoodat #Royalty _____ _____ Model @queennyakimofficial Photographer: @islandboiphotography Braided Crown & top: @Moshoodat Makeup Artist & Creative Director: @moshoodat _____ Big Thanks to @sensationnel_hair for the hair in the project! ❤🙏🏿 _________________________________ #Islandboiphotography #moshoodat (at New York, New York)

"Always do your best. Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgement, self-abuse and regret. You've done it before and you can do it now. See the positive possibilites. Redirect your substantial energy of your frustration and turn it into positive, effective, unstoppable determination." _____ _____ Model: @lacolesady Mua: @callme_trice Photographer: @islandboiphotography _________________________________ #islandboiphotography #bytrice (at New York, New York)
