Hey there! So, you want to know about me? Well, let's just say I'm a bit of an enigma wrapped in mystery and beauty. My name is Thaelie, and I've always been the kind of girl who doesn't follow the norm. Growing up, my parents were hippies, man - they encouraged free-spiritedness and individuality. They taught me to be true to myself, even if that meant being different from everyone else.

As a result, I've never really fit in anywhere. I've always been on the outside looking in, observing how people behave and what they say behind closed doors. My parents used to tell me I was born with a third eye - like, literally, my eyes see things most people don't even notice. It's weird, but it's also kinda cool.

I got into photography because of this whole "third eye" thing. I wanted to capture the beauty in imperfection, to show that nobody's perfect and that's what makes us beautiful. I've always loved experimenting with different lighting setups and poses - there's something about the way light interacts with a person's skin that just fascinates me.

My tattoos are a big part of who I am too. Each one has a story behind it, and they're all reminders to myself to stay true to my values. The shoulder tattoo is probably my favorite - it's a symbol for me to remember to be fierce and fearless in this crazy world.
