My “True Beauty” series was intended to be a composite of beauty and nature. I had hoped to capture the dichotomy between what is often considered beautiful and what most are fearful of. My original concept was to incorporate several bug species into each photo during postproduction. When arriving at the studio Nicole, the make-up artist, and myself sat down and picked out eye shadows that would work for each bug. For example, I was going to use bumblebees for the black eye shadow. When finishing this series I realized that the images were so striking on their own that I decided not to put the bugs in after all. You can view more images of Robyn Connor on her agency's website:
