THE SKIN I'M IN: Breaking Beauty Barriers is a social portrait series inspired by the photographer’s own journey with chronic and severe eczema. This creative project highlights individuals with visible skin conditions such as vitiligo, eczema, burns, major scars, keloids, albinism, alopecia, rare skin conditions, physical changes due to injury, limb difference. and more. Through empowering, editorial-style photography, the series celebrates real skin, real people, and real stories, challenging conventional beauty standards and shifting the lens on visibility.
