I rarely take photos of myself and when I saw that the first photo I had to do for this challenge was a self-portrait I wasn't excited. When I've appeared in front of the camera before I've always been in heavy makeup and costuming. Tonight, on new year's eve, I finally realized I should stop worrying about it and just do it. 2020 has been a hell of a ride and looking perfectly put together in a photo should be (and is) the least of my worries. In addition, I'm challenging myself to do only black and white (unless the prompt calls for color) because I so rarely do black and white and want to get more comfortable with it. #52frames #52frames_selfportrait #dmvframers #52framesweek1 #blackandwhite #selfportrait #niftyfifty #canoneosr #selfportraitphotography #happynewyear https://www.instagram.com/p/CJfXoJUj4bP/?igshid=gz82jesy50uu
