Over the next while, I will be uploading multiple photos with the "Mature Content- nudity" warning. This is because of an idea my aunt had, and in which she has let me be involved.

In 2006, she developed breast cancer. She spent a year enduring chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and a double mastectomy, leaving her scarred and breastless. Needless to say, it was very, very hard on her.

For the last few months, she's been writing a book. A book for women like her, a book full of photographs and her story of battling cancer. The goal is that she will reach out to others, and help them see that one can still be beautiful, despite what they have lost.

I am very, very, very lucky. A chapter in my aunt's book will be dedicated to my photography, from a shoot we had one summer afternoon. The series I am uploading here, creatively titled "Magenta," is made up of my favorite shots from the session. I was the first photographer to actually shoot pictures of her with some clothes on. XD

For her sake, I ask that you take some time and look at the pictures, and think. This is my aunt, the survivor, the beautiful woman warrior. Look at the pictures, and when the book comes out, make sure to check it out! For her sake and mine, take some time.

Love,

Felicia
