It's a funny thing really, the concept of self-image. It’s an even stranger thing to consider how many men struggle with positive self-image. Due in large part to the cultural stoicism that is encouraged and expected of us dudes, it is assumed that we just don’t battle with image issues.

I hardly ever post photos of myself, claiming the photographer's dilemma of always being behind the camera never in front. While that is part of it, there is also a fear, insecurity, and ego which convince me not even to make an effort to take self-portraits.  It's time to put that shit to bed.
