Thank you.
Life is such an amazing jorney.
On 15th september 2019 I decided to stop my longlife suffering from gender dysphoria and to start being real me, a woman.
Since 1st october 2019, means excactly 552 days, I am living fulltime as woman, the best time I have ever had in my life. I started my transition.
Exactly one year ago on 4th april 2020 I started to share my photos on flickr.
And now one year later there are over 1.180 followers, over 5.1 millions views.
Unbelievable.
I never thought, that photos of a 56 year old mature transwoman with a respectful, tasteful and classy style would have such an impact, such an interest.
This is overwhelming me.
Thank you all so very much for your best wishes, your comments, favour me and your support. Thank you therefore that I am not alone.
And in 2021 the exciting transition journey proceeds with steps like HRT, epilation, speech therapy. All these steps have changed my life in a profound way, changed my mind and body. It is so fantastic and unbelievable to see and explore the world with the eyes of a woman.
And the exciting journey of this 56 year old mature transwoman will be continued.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.❤️❤️
Stay safe and healthy.

Miami, here I come to bask in the splendor of one of your many conference centers 24/7, never to see the light of day. Production Life. ☮️💜
I put make up on this morning and took some pictures in a pretty dress. This is casual time back at home before getting ready for work. (Well a Zoom presentation;) ☮️❤️😷
It has been almost three weeks without makeup due to crazy work schedules. I can’t wait to catch up with everyone here.
Future freelance working girl? I sure hope so! I took this picture in my client’s logo’d shirt just before wiping off the make up. There are times our teams are contracted as crew on behalf of partnering production companies.
In May I am going to start leaking pictures like this to key client liaisons before I go full time. So far my closest allies seem fine but oddly some of the women event planners are still asking a lot of questions. One friend keeps asking about my thoughts on losing male privilege. My prayer is our client partners will see their shirt in the picture and acknowledge I am the same dedicated person they have always known. The show must go on; RIGHT?!
Being out late last night in the big city definitely revved this suburban girl up. (even if I was working in a quasi-andro mode). My mind is swirling with dreams and possibilities yet I know from many girlfriends that have walked before me I am experiencing another “pink cloud” moment. At least I was able to enjoy a nice sun-drenched garden stroll this morning.
I love 💕 you all so much, I just want to get closer! After a week of not hugging friends or clients I’m praying we can all share a big virtual hug!!! Thank you to everyone for leaving such sweet comments. Your words help me get through the day more than you may ever know. ☮️💜
Today’s show was cancelled, so I am out of town with a day off!!! My apologies in advance for this super girly day. The morning started with a daily dose of hormones, putting on a favorite dress, and playing with iPhone 13’s studio portrait mode.
“Working hard to lose the man card!’ It’s a chick thing and yes, I remain, stillverytrans.com 💜☮️
This is my first time wearing make up in almost two months. The return of in-person conferences and live events has created a crazy work travel demand with three weeks on and 2-3 days off. (When little rest is combined with estradiol and bad food choices, it is a given I am sporting more than a few added pounds.) Miss everyone here. ☮️💜
Please choose a set for tonight’s coming out to the band about my transition. Group A or Group B? Pick numbers if needed. They all kind of know, but I have not formally shared my full intention. Thank you so much for the help! ☮️💜
I wish I could show you how much I look like my college girlfriend “M” with glasses. (After transition I hope she will allow me to share a side by side comparison.) All of my serious girlfriends knew about about me beginning in high school and most were not keen on my natural proclivities except for M. We actually made a pact that I would transition if I didn’t marry before turning thirty. Of course I married before then and carelessly promised my wife I would not transition. (My 2012 emancipation has not been easy for her or our family)
Even crazier than that was the fact M’s mother knew about me and on occasion she would buy a few things for me. Nothing too frilly or girly, just the basic shorts, T’s, tights, and jeans. M and I even spent long private girlfriend retreats on their boat, with her mom’s blessing, and a few nights while on holiday. So many amazing memories all came to a stop when M became engaged. Today we are shy Facebook acquaintances. I am looking forward to her knowing about me later this year. It’s all part of the journey.
Today’s risky adventure found me chasing more dreams and a healthy dose of Vitamin D! It was a beautiful morning and before I knew it I was in front of one of the wedding l venues our band plays. This is less than fifteen minutes from home and I totally damned the camera torpedoes. The director knows me well and my car; sans my true self. If they see something on the camera they don’t like they can certainly ask law enforcement to run my tag. Let’s see if anything happens and let the games begin! 💜☮️
Just finished work and let my thin hair down. I’m freezing, testing a new camera without any make up, and tossing penny wishes in the fountain. ☮️💜
Smile compliments of Lysol. That’s right. I found a can hiding in a lower shelf. What a great day! 😷❤️☮️
It’s amazing what a little sunlight and lipstick can do for a girl’s confidence. Serious date night wishes....after all, the manager at the car wash just complimented me and asked “Girl’s night out or date night?”
She and her team are always so polite, regardless of how I am dressed. They have watched every step of my transition without ever asking a question. I pray for more acceptance everyday.
Working the night lights under some crystal trees after a long 5-day show. I mean, what would Flickr be without trans girls and selfie-sticks? ☮️💜
I found this picture in the 30 month HRT update folder. I am carefully starting to network with prospects through my new Linked In profile. I would say it is a scary necessity because I am still not 100% full time.
The good news this week is our weather is cooling off and exercise is back into a nice swing with Chalene Johnson’s Three Day Reset Facebook group. Still simmering and still very trans, Steph. ☮️💜😷
Natural freckled complexion without face make up. Just a little mascara and brow pencil left after another shiny three mile walk. Girl Powered! 🏃♀️💜☮️
When a girl gets down, it’s easy to snap back with a dose of lipstick and a quick shot of retail therapy!
Slowly paying off some new hair for my January birthday. (I usually rotate between a nice bag or a new hair style) This was my first visit back after Covid and Lee immediately pulled this out of the back for me to try. I am very thankful for my emerging tribe.
I finished college in 1981 and had my first fulltime job. I taught as an elementary school teacher in Kuwait that fall. I went with a classmate from home and new friends who were new hires too. It was the first time we'd been overseas. The world seems like a much different place.
These images are rough due to the age of the photographs. Over time, I may do a bit of editing on these.
Happy Sunday everyone!
I only passed out seven business cards as Stephanie last week and twenty two as my andro-self. “Andro” is on the boards with one big fish and one little fish while Stephanie has zip. I’m fine with gentle baby steps as long as they are marching forward.
Steph’s first day at work yesterday as a job site progress photographer for an engineering firm. Although it’s not glamorous work, I love it! So now in my down time I have two construction clients. I shoot for one commercial firm and one environmental design company. Yes girls and trans girls sweat like hell too! (well, at least this one does..lol) ☮️💜
Pretty much every second Monday when all the green waste has been collected in Hornsby, you’ll see the four fulltime trucks parked along the main drag in North Epping. Drive past and you’ll spot this mainly blue line-up and four blokes wearing high vis having a chat. Easiest day of the fortnight this zone, makes for a chill way to start the week and allows time for a pit stop before travelling some solid distance to Kimbriki and the yard. Left to right is 641, 640, 642 and 639, a picture opportunity I couldn’t pass up, something for the memories! When I think of teamwork this is something I envisage, job done together and parked together, even if it’s only for a couple of minutes to change sides. Also love taking off as a whole and being in a convoy when it’s achievable =]
Meet "Little Boy", a guest in our home for the next 3 weeks. He's big and FAT> Quite fellow who doesn't bother me unless I pick up the bag of treats. I sometimes miss having a cat here fulltime...
To the best of my knowledge, I believe Veolia had only two Scania front lifts running in Sydney, something that clearly never took off with the company! One was a spare that apparently wasn’t too popular and the second I understand was based fulltime at Sydney Markets, a truck I used to see working on weekend afternoons. This one was definitely pushing 10 years old in this photo, I wonder what condition it was in compared to the identical truck at Watts Waste :D
Soaking in the sun and lifting up gratitude. I have so many issues and challenges behind me, ahead of me, and on top of me. Not only am I very trans, as luck would have it, I am very HUMAN as well. What a revelation!
Happy New Year everyone. I am at my usual NYE venue checking out my competition. Since I’m not working, I’m looking for a kiss!
Finally at the beach for some personal time after wrapping our Charleston shoots this week. Such a beautiful city. I can’t wait to come back.
