~ Shining a light on the emotional healing after a breast cancer diagnosis ~

Finding Strength In Her Story

THE PURPOSE: The purpose of Project SHINE is to change the way women feel about themselves after a breast cancer diagnosis and to create awareness around the emotional impact during and after treatment. Project SHINE started out as a no-cost beauty makeover experience for women and has grown into a collection of story-telling images that exemplify beauty, strength, hope and resilience. These artful messages not only empower survivors, but will resonate with all women.

THE GOAL: Our goal is to photograph 30 breast cancer survivors and have their storytelling images published in a book. Each woman chooses one word that best describes her experience and that word becomes the theme of her storytelling image.
