"I was at a place in my life where I was feeling as if there was something more I should be doing, but I wasn’t sure what and what I’d be able to do.
You see I have MS and a year and a half ago I had transplant surgery.
Now I’m on some nasty anti-rejection drugs.
So between side effects and MS, I wasn’t sure what I could accomplish.
I decided to treat myself to a photoshoot by this incredible photographer I know. She’s also a psychic and I find her and I can easily be on the same page.
So, really disliking having my photo taken, I figured if anyone could get good (or even great) photos of me, it would be her.
I had an amazing time and had input into what types of pictures we would take.
We did sessions on the different parts of my personality.
My favourites were the sensual side of me and my scrappy side.
She kept me relaxed and there was much giggling.
As Laurie and I went through the Journey Portrait photoshoot, I found it so reaffirming that I have a lot of strength and resolve and I can adapt and do so many things.
I found this shoot to be so powerful and it got my feet back under me and me looking forward once again.
Now I’m looking at the future with hope and anticipation.
I can’t wait to see how they turned out! (Well, we know how they turned out - awesome!)
Ooo, I was also fed delicious food throughout the day. It was a wonderful and empowering experience and I highly recommend doing it yourself."
