Aesthetic Abrasion

**Just to get this out of the way first: These photos are not an invitation to ask me intimate questions about my sex life, sexual preferences, or sexual acts.

I know a lot of you are probably curious, and on some days I’m okay with being an educator, but it is extremely draining to explain myself over and over. And that’s not what these photos are for. Oh yea, and these marks were both purposeful and consensual.**

Phew. Now that’s out of the way — there weren’t a lot of photos in this set, and there wasn’t a ton of variety in my posing, but they clearly had one intention; to show off my marks. A lot of the time, photo editing tries to remove flaws and plenty of photographers have removed bruises from my skin during that process. But I actually kind of love bruises (when they’re the result of a positive experience of course), I’m not the only one right?

They’re sort of like battle scars. I like to watch their progress of appearing, changing colors, and it’s always a bit bitter sweet to watch them fade away. So I decided to focus this particular set on highlighting them, appreciating them. Appreciating how amazing my body is to be able to endure these contusions and then heal itself back to new. And of course, I wanted to capture the aura of intimacy that so naturally aligns with this concept.

So, no questions please. Just enjoy the beauty in the unconventional and let yourself appreciate the art of imaginative speculation.
