INTRODUCTION

My name is Desiree and I'm only 18 years old, I'm Italian and I live in Rome. I study and pursue my dream of becoming a model / photo model. I started out very shy even though I've always liked being photographed but my brake was being very insecure of myself and I never felt up to it.

Until February 24th where I was in a car accident in which I broke my nose and fractured my jaw and cheekbone. My face was devastated and almost unrecognizable, I was swollen that I could no longer open my eyes and I spent weeks of hell in the hospital, but with a lot of willpower, patience and the help of the surgeons who operated on me and followed me in the my journey, I finally return to my appearance. And to this day I almost don't even have a sign of the impact anymore.

From there I had a feeling of rebirth. I began to appreciate every little thing more and I decided to seriously undertake what is now a project of both personal and professional growth. And for which I am aiming all of myself and my energies.

I'm getting to know many photographers in the sector, I shoot both with professional photographers and with guys who do it at an amateur level for passion and from every person I know I get something that I will carry in my heart, everyone leaves me a lesson, advice or even just the experience itself of doing the shooting. I still have a long way to go and I can't wait to find out what things life will offer me.
