Also, in case you see pretty pics + forget what goes on behind the scenes, I need to let you in on a little secret: I was scared.  
 
I was scared I would mess it up. That the photos would be awkward (hey πŸ‘‹πŸ»), that my answers to the questions would be lame. That overall I would...come up short.  
 
Still, I said yes, anyway.  
 
I said yes through the fear and I decided to be brave.  
 
I’m telling you this because I think it’s all too easy to assume that other people aren’t scared. That you’re the only one.  
 
I can honestly say that literally ANY time I’ve done something out of my comfort zone, I’ve been scared. (So pretty much like anytime I deviate from my normal everyday comfy routine. 😬) 
 
Being scared isn’t bad.  
 
I think being scared just might be the first step in being brave.  
 
(Oh and also. I don’t mean like β€œin your gut” scared. Listen to your gut. That’s a whole other post. πŸ˜‰) 
 
Thank you to @robinsubarphoto + @theresa.demaria.stylist for making the whole process not at all scary! πŸ–€β€‰ πŸ“· @robinsubarphoto
