Statement

i don't think i'm divulging any big secret when i say this is something of a self portrait, or maybe better a "life portrait". this is about a young woman learning to maneuver the adult world. she's ready to go, and doing a pretty good job of it for the most part, but of course, learning to walk in high heels has its tricky, wobbly moments. this is about balancing, staying afloat, staying optimistic, enjoying where life is and anticipating all that is to come, being who you are, laughing at your minor mishaps, and looking awesome in red shoes.
