29 has been one of THE best years of my life! Like, seriously. I'm not sure if this type of magic is sprinkled on everyone on the brink of the milestone we call 30 but I'm surely grateful for the magic showing up for me! Going into my personal new year I created a 30 by 30 list. On that list was to have a photo shoot. Why? To get me out of my comfort zone, in front of the camera, having fun and embracing all that I am to share with others.
I'm a very curious and personable person when one-on-one and face-to face with people. On top of that, I'm tall and naturally slim. As such, I've had people ask me for most of my life if I model or if I've ever thought of a career in front of the camera, interviewing or anything else of the like. My answer is always a resounding "NO!" because I don't necessarily crave spotlight and I've been shy in front of the camera. So this experience was definitely a stretch for me! Thankfully my photographer (shout out to Garvin Reid) and creative director (heyyyy Natalie) helped me feel supported, super comfortable and they got my vision and helped bring it to life!
Enjoy the pics and let me know what you think!
Love,
Fatima Marie
p.s...I was asked the question "if you had 10 times more courage, what would you do?" and surprisingly, with NO idea where the vision came from, I saw myself on camera hosting some sort of forum or show. Hmmm...premonition? We shall see...
