The Confidence Building Aspect of Self Portraits

This was the first time i didn't drop the ball. I've done a couple of 365 day projects, and i've missed a couple of days in a couple of weeks but this one ive, like, hands up in the air celebrating. The intention was to take the forty images in the forty days continuously. Yeamously, yes, that was the workye,. what do you feel like the confident, like, what kind of confidence do you feellike self portraits bring? Especially this project, was it kind of a self love journey? Was it a different way to see yourself? Or was it confidences as your photography skills?
