It s my birthday today 39 years old Made me go and look at pictures from some shoots My face matured my gaze deepened but something about me always stayed the same That spark That stubborn softness Realness This year I didn t do a big photoshoot No wild parties no champagne toasts not only because I don t drink alcohol haha I chose to spend the day quietly with the people who truly matter friends and family I saved a little piece of the celebration for my paid page - but here I just want to share these snapshots of me through the years A reminder that beauty lives in change and in the parts of us that never change Thank you for being here with me HB to me
