Photographing people gives her the opportunity to observe, but she believes that the lens intensifies her ability to truly understand. Elizabeth through the Self Revealed photography project wants to explore the incredible variety of women of all ages, races and sexual orientation, we are all same regardless size and physical characteristics that make them unique. We need to promote individuality and self love, we need to accept and love ourselves as we are not as what society mandates we should be. We need to create an awareness, understanding and respect for humankind through photographic images. I am constantly reminded that even though people live worlds apart, we are truly all the same. Our hopes, dreams, loves and losses are all captured in our faces. The camera provides objective proof of our commonality.
