I just stumbled upon this TED talk by photographer Olivia Bee, and it’s pretty great. She creates in the same way that I want to be: to capture “auras” and how things feel in an authentic way. Most interestingly, she touches upon everything I’m feeling right now in regards to creativity, especially in regards to Instagram culture, and the lack of authenticity in sharing everything—I’ve always had a strange relationship with it.

This TED talk by Cameron Russell is something I found last week and have already shared via both Twitter and Facebook. I watched it again today and re-realized just how important it is, and how prevalent Russell’s message is. I am incredibly taken by how frank and honest she is about society’s attitude towards physical appearance and its associated privilege. She was also interviewed on CNN, and she was pretty great there too.
