As I capture high school senior from time to time, i run into some seniors who honestly believe that they are ugly (of course there are those on the other end of the spectrum!) and I can understand them to a point… If you always compared yourself to a celebrity with their team of makeup artist and hairstylist i would start to think that i am ugly too! that’s why i thought this video was so important as it shows how a celebrity or model gets from point A to point B.
I used to watch America’s Next Top Model and I too was amazed how they would take a person off the street and made them look amazing. These were women that we pass by each and every day at the grocery store, office or football games and they have been made to be super models with just a comb and some paint.
So my advice is to not compare your looks to a celebrities in magazines, movies or videos as they have all been ‘enhanced’ and believe it or not you are just as beautiful*. I put the asterisk there because a person’s personality and attitude has a huge affect on whether you are perceived as being beautiful. So make sure the inside is beautiful first then work on the outside. I know this is hard to do because no one approaches you and says….”you have a great personality” but try try t-r-y to emphasize you inner beauty as it will help enhance your external beauty so much more!
disclaimer: all the portraits on images by andre have been enhanced…too!
