This Woman Is Waging a Hilarious War Against Selfies

If you’ve never seen a picture of a person impersonating a cadaver and taking a picture of it, then you’re in luck! STEFDIES is a photo series by an anonymous woman who pretends to be, well, dead in photos.

And there’s a good reason for it!

The STEFDIES series reminds us we will one day die, like our face down figure. Hence seeing her in the photograph wakes up not only the image but us. We are given the opportunity to ‘die before we die’ and really take in the moment in the photo as we must in life. It is not about death, it is about life.

STEFDIES is a constant reminder of how precious life is. The breath inside is what we all ultimately seek.

So that’s fun!

You know what’s more fun? Her pictures!

1. Looks like London?

2. At a petting zoo!

3. A friend joining her for an art show!

4. Okay, that could actually be lethal…

5. Submerged

6. Outside Notre Dame

7. Clowning around!

8. Eiffel corpse!

9. Smashed on the rocks!

10. Under the Golden Gate bridge…

11. In Madrid!

12. At Disney World?

13. Enjoying a snack…

14. Parking lot probs…

15. Along the English countryside…

Check out her website here and Instagram here, and enjoy all that weirdness. You’ve earned it.

This Mom is Changing the Game by Shooting Portraits of Girls in Sparkly Dresses and Sports Gear

From a young age, girls are sent the message that they have to either be girly-girls or tomboys. There’s no in between and there’s no overlapping.

Well, not anymore.

Heather Mitchell runs HMP Couture Imagery in Alabama, and she shoots portraits of young girls who want to do what they want to do. Her series is called “Because you can do it all”, and it has gone viral in a big way.

Mitchell said, “My youngest daughter is 8 and she is trying softball this year for the first time. We were at practice a few weeks ago and I was talking with the other moms. I was saying that I hoped Paislee learned to love the game because she was athletic. One of the moms told me that she was not athletic, that she was a girly-girl.”

She added, “I couldn’t sleep that night. All I could think was, ‘Why does she have to choose?’ I played every sport my school offered and wore lipstick to every game. So the next day we went to the studio and created her shot.”

After posting shots of her daughter Paislee on Facebook, the requests from other moms came flooding in.

Take a look at these young ladies.

Mitchell added a final comment. “My parent taught me that I could be anything I wanted growing up. I didn’t realize till I was much older that everyone is not that blessed.”

Great stuff! Remember girls – you can do it all!
