WELCOME TO THE CELEBRATION!!!! This has been a long time coming and we are SOOOO EXCITED TO SHARE OUR CELEBRATION WITH YOU, our wonderful and BEAUTIFUL fans!! From the very beginning of the planning process for this photo shoot, this HUGE AND INSPIRED DREAM, we have wanted this to be a celebration. A CELEBRATION AND PROOF OF THE POWER AND MAGIC THAT HAPPENS WHEN WE LOVE THE SKIN WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN, WHEN WE TRULY, 100% LOVE WHO WE ARE AND ARE GRATEFUL TO BE JUST THAT, YOU, ME, US!! In every single step of the process the Lord has been involved. Kelsey Bailey and I prayed, listened and then did what we were prompted and told to do. The entire process was incredible, start to finish!! I felt SO close to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I felt SO close to these AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, I felt the spirit talk with me and confirm us in our efforts constantly. This was truly a photo shoot I will never forget!! Kelsey and I did this ENTIRE project out of pure love. We wanted to truly help these girls LOVE who they are and wanted to teach them to be PROUD of the skin they've been given. With SO MUCH HELP FROM THE LORD, with His hand in ours, I feel we healed hearts, minds and helped these 12 BEAUTIFUL women to see themselves not only as beautiful daughters of God, but to see themselves as more, SO SO MUCH MORE!! For beauty is not only skin deep!!! ALL TWELVE OF THESE WOMEN are not only BEAUTIFUL on the outside, that is a given :):), but they are BEAUTIFUL on the inside and have the most pure and loving hearts of anyone I know!! And now, with the help of the Lord, they believe it, THEY KNOW IT!! It was an HONOR to work with each and every one of these incredible and BEAUTIFUL women!! They have helped ME see myself in a different light, to look in the mirror and see myself, as Christee Schofield taught us, as Jesus Christ does. THAT is the most amazing thing to feel and SEE. To feel how proud He is of us, of ALL OF US!! To know, without a doubt, we were all made ON PURPOSE AND FOR A PURPOSE!!!! Throwing color was a symbol and a celebration of their beauty their bravery their stories & the journey they each individually took to get HERE!! AT THE GRAND FINALE OF OUR CELEBRATION OF BEAUTY PHOTO SHOOT throwing color was a symbol. A symbol of letting go of any and all insecurities we had and watching them disappear into the atmosphere. It was a symbol of freedom!! A symbol of happiness, of being excited to show who we truly are unapologetically!!!!!! We are all together a rainbow of color, we are all different and have something new and exciting to bring to the table, to the world. We need each other. No one should do life alone. We need to celebrate what makes us each Unique and BEAUTIFUL and become sisters in Zion, becoming one in purpose and objective. These 12 women, 12 strangers, came together uniting instantly, and became sisters in Zion. Rooting for each other, celebrating each other, inspiring each other to be better. They are SOOOO excited to inspire so many other women in the world to love their own beauty, and to celebrate every beautiful trait that makes you, you!! The world teaches us constantly that we are never ever enough. Just being you, is never enough. You will never be rich enough, pretty enough, loved enough, liked on Facebook/Instagram enough, skinny enough, bold enough, you will never be just enough. What total and complete BOGUS THAT IS!!!! We are ALL made in HIS IMAGE, and God does NOT make mistakes!! WE ARE NOT MISTAKES!! God made us, each of us, just the way we are ON PURPOSE AND FOR A PURPOSE!!!! And on our photo shoot we CELEBRATED THAT!!!! Our hope is that YOU will be able to look inward and see yourself the way Christ does. To love yourself more fully and without apology. To celebrate your own Unique-ness and become a Warrior for good. To speak more Gentle to yourself, to listen more closely to the Spirit. To Believe in yourself and talk more Positively to yourself! To be Authentic, Fearless and Rise above those negative thoughts you might have about yourself. To truly feel Strong and be Passionate about following the gospel. To know and believe what it truly is to feel Limitless!! We don't want this project to end with us. What word would YOU choose for yourself? Comment below and tell us :):) We would LOVE to know!! |
