Wanting to Share

Hi Everyone,
I recently had a photo-shoot to celebrate my breasts prior to surgery. I wanted to capture the raw emotions I felt from the diagnosis, and the effects of treatment. I was lucky to work with a wonderful photographer who "got inside my head" and achieved what I was looking for. I would be happy to share some of the photographs here, but am not sure on the rules around naked breasts??

    @LadyLace what a great idea! Can't wait to see your beautiful photos!  I am waiting for double mastectomy. I definitely will get some photos done before the surgery. Xxx

    @"Butterfly 40" It is part of your personal recognition of yourself and your own emotions. It doesn't matter if the whole world or only you see the photos, it's special. Hugs to you x

    I wish I had done this.  I only remembered before my second mastectomy so have a nice one boob shot! Some people also make plaster casts which is a great idea too.

    @LadyLace I love that idea too...beautiful..

    I did something different in that post Chemo and still with a wig, my daughter who is talented in Media took a series of photos, same thing of capturing me post it all in reflection. Fully clothed though LOL but it was fun and it did wonders for my confidence and a marking of it was over.. x Melinda
