Body image, photography, and authentic womanhood

Julie Adams is a Sydney-based photographer widely known for her work in Vogue, Harper’s BAZAAR, Glamour, Marie Claire and others, what we’re talking about today is her personal project titled This Is Me. For this personal project, Julie has photographed hundreds of women, all of whom modeled for an unretouched photograph in their swimsuit and shared some of their own reflections about body image, mental and physical struggles, and why we are all beautiful in our uniqueness. Julie reflects on how what started as a body image project targeted at young women, quickly evolved into a more sophisticated reflection of womanhood that appealed across generations.
