The Classic Head & Shoulders Photo

This photo came as a result of a professional makeover, styling and photo shoot in Nashville, TN in January. Both the stylist, Brittany Muse, and the photographer, Cody Stallings, were professional enough to ask what I wanted from the sessions and what motivates me.

 

Their caring inquiry helped me realize that my real self is happy both as a man and a woman. I learned that it is the delicate balance between masculinity and femininity that feeds my soul, keeps me healthy and stimulates my imagination and creativity. It gives me confidence and compassion.

 

This next series of photos, captures one version of that balance. Later you will see all femme. These are representative of both sides of who I truly am and want to be.

 

A number of times over my various careers, I had photographs much like this one taken for the companies I worked for or for my own company. They were for annual reports, press releases, staff photo rosters, marketing materials and the like.

 

They were fine. And, deep down inside, this is what I felt and wanted to look like.
