The Best Change to See is the One in Yourself

"I love narcissism as a power to reconstruct oneself, to marry ourselves, to be at peace, to see we glow inside out. Not to just focus on the superficial aspect of our physical appearance. Sure, physical beauty is reassuring; but it's quite hard to find a beautiful woman who is truly aware of the impact of her appearance. Most of us doubt; many of us don't feel pretty most of the time."

This is her response to why she uses herself as the subject of her photos. I too use myself as a subject since everyone else is tired of having their picture taken. But I feel like she nailed it. I can take a photo of myself and transform it into a piece of art, someting beautiful. And in the end you are reborn from the camera.
