This photo series photographed by Le Quyen Nguyen explores self-love, femininity and womanhood, starring Isabel Cogumbreiro who overcame her past filled with body image issues.
Le Quyen Nguyen is a self-taught photographer based in Berlin. With her focus on portraiture and fashion, her photos provide an intimate glimpse into Berlin’s young and unapologetic creative scene. She uses photography as a tool to empower people. Her photos have been exhibited in group shows in Berlin and Tokyo and she has been published in various independent magazines.
I was intrigued by Isabel’s aura and loved to capture herself being comfy in her own skin. She was radiating with self-confidence. I love the collaboration with other creatives and we gave it our best to create this series.

I feel proud of what I’ve become. I think that that is visible here. These photos show all the things I’ve learnt to love about myself.
