When Reality Hits

In my journey through photography I have met amazing people but cancer has brought some tough stories. One model was given weeks too live at 27 but lived and sung on multiple top ten hits. After radiotherapy was told she would never have children and now has a 3 year old. Another model had a double mastectomy to prevent cancer in her 20s and has become an amazing ambassador for her genetic condition. This week a lovely model/gymnast was brave enough to explain her mastectomy and how she will be tough to get on with life no matter what. Just privileged to have met these wonderful young ladies. So here's to those wonderful young ladies whose fight was just amazing. Feel free to post photos about those you have photos of models who have had a tough journey.

I hear you! I was thinking about a project to photograph these journeys with their body and make a book about it.

So important that we realise that there is life afterwards.

My wife JJ Phoenix was diagnosed and had a lumpectomy last year. She's just had her 1 year mammogram and that came back clear.

I was and am in awe of how she has dealt with her whole journey. So if anyone wants to speak to her about a project, she may well be interested

There are other events that people go through that others could not comprehend. I used to shoot regularly with a model who was involved in a boating accident where her twin sister drowned. This changed totally health and safety legislation in the UK for school activities. Now she is a Primary School teacher and mum. Just amazing.
