Soulful Photographer : Poem - Naked Abundance
Naked Abundance
by Mihirini de Zoysa
“I will open wide my eyes
so that I will not miss
the morning sun
I will gently brush my fingers so that I may touch
the dew tip grass
I will walk barefoot
so that I may find root
on the earth that cradles me
I will look up to the sky
so that I may show my face to the cosmos that holds me
I will uncover naked my body so that I may feel
every sensation of love
I will laugh out loud so that my joy will be unbridled in the world
I will open my heart
so that love will abound within and without
I will lay bare my soul so that the world will know me intimately”

Soulful Headshots: Christina
“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.” - Brené Brown
Sitting for headshots or any type of portraits is an exercise in Courage. Courage in showing ourselves to the world especially in an authentic way. It is sharing a bit of ourselves.
Last month I went to New York and met with Christina, a storyteller who helps innovators translate their believes and passions into powerful brand stories. I was humbled that she trusted me to take her headshots and I was inspired by her presence and confidence in herself. Please check her out at The New Quo.
Here are few of the photos we captured during our short time together at the Brooklyn Museum of Art.
