Women
Why focus on women? We believe that women experience a disproportionate amount of pressure to conform to a certain kind of beauty.
We are not saying that the women featured in popular fashion, glamour and beauty media are not beautiful. They are in fact very beautiful. What we are saying is that there are many other kinds of beauty that are not exposed and celebrated by many of these media outlets.
Our goal is to capture and expose as many unique expressions of female style, body and creativity and showcase them in one place in order to demonstrate that beauty is diverse.
We hope that this ever-expanding celebration of diversity will allow practically any woman the opportunity to connect with another woman that she can relate to and be inspired by.
Find who you are. Be who you are. Be true to yourself.

Men
In reality, men and women validate diversity on a regular basis by being attracted to diverse expressions of beauty.
We feel that popular fashion, glamour and beauty media does not reflect these diverse choices that men and women make on a daily basis.
We are attempting to create a healthy symbiotic relationship between those that enjoy female beauty and those women that enjoy expressing their beauty.
Investment in the art of female beauty through the Self,Reflected project ensures that Self,Reflected can continue to expose the diversity of beauty.
