First girlmode photoshoot

On 2024-06-10 I did another selfie photoshoot. By this I mean a proper camera on a tripod, controlled remotely with my phone — not the standard mirror selfies.

I was ill prepared for it: unwashed hair, no makeup, nothing. But I felt compelled to do it nonetheless: I had recently acquired a small selection of skirts, padded camisoles, etc.

This was my first girlmode photoshoot.

The process itself was pretty standard (I’ve done this a few times before) but the results were…interesting: oily hair, dandruff, and splotchy skin, yes, but seeing myself with that silhouette — largely from the padded camisole; to a lesser extent from the pleated skirt; to an even lesser extent thanks to improvements in my thighs from working out — I wondered, for the first time ever, if I might actually have a chance of liking how I looked. Of finding myself…potentially attractive?
