Utrecht, 2023 || Self-portrait by street light. I've always considered myself to be so ugly. Taking self-portraits with my DSLR has massively helped me like my face more. The blurred background makes me feel like I'm the protagonist of a film, important regardless of looks. Slowly I'm starting to enjoy taking photos of myself, not out of vanity, but as proof that I've lived. Slowly, I'm starting to enjoy being a person in the world.
