Have I ever told you about the time there was a naked stripper in my bed?

Yeah. That happened.

We finished with a photo of the three of us.
Me in the middle, Taylor and Izzy on each side, all of us smiling like kids who’d just gotten away with something.

Hot. Happy. A little delirious.

She moved without me saying a word.
That’s what makes her a goddess in front of a camera.
She doesn’t pose. She breathes into it.

We were both sweating like crazy.
My camera grip was slippery.
Every gust of wind felt like a blessing.

She said, “I’m melting.”
I told her, “Yeah, but you look incredible doing it.”

Es Vedrà floated behind her like a dream.
I remember thinking, maybe this is the moment the island falls in love with her too.

Until that moment, every look she’d worn was black or white.
Simple. Clean. Classic.

But the pink changed everything.
She looked sweeter. Softer.
Like the light had a crush on her.

The pink bikini was the last look of the morning.
The rocks were already too hot to touch, and the air felt heavy with salt and sunlight.

Taylor climbed up barefoot, laughing as she tried not to burn her feet.

You don't really need to have good ideas if you've found a beach shower and your model is in this kind of mood.

Trust me.

That Arnold @thatarnold.bsky.social · 2d

It's not about being naked.
It's about feeling free enough not to care.

Chase those sunsets.

I have never done a survey haha but I assume quite a lot of them

That Arnold @thatarnold.bsky.social · 4d

Exactly. The first push is the hardest. But once the ball starts rolling...

That Arnold @thatarnold.bsky.social · 4d

Hahaha exactly 😂

That Arnold @thatarnold.bsky.social · 4d

So yeah, maybe this is just a little ramble. But if it makes one person take that first step, then it’s worth sharing.

Do the thing. Don’t wait for permission.
Your future self will thank you. 🙃

One day you just look around and realize you’re living it.
The life that used to exist only in your head.
And it feels simple. Natural. Like it was always meant to be this way.

For me, it happened slowly.
Through photography, and through life in general.
Every time I ignored fear and took a step toward the life I wanted, the next step came easier.

It’s like your comfort zone stretches a little every time you move.

That change in perspective might sound small, but it’s everything. It’s the difference between staying safe and starting something that could change your life.

And it’s not instant. It takes time. It’s something you learn, and unlearn, and learn again.

But when you ask the second one, “Will I regret not doing this?”, your focus shifts completely.
Now you’re thinking about what you actually want. The kind of life you’d be proud to live. The dreams you keep postponing because they feel too far away.

Because when you ask the first question, your brain immediately goes into fear mode.
What will people say?
What if it goes wrong?
What if I’m not ready?

That question keeps you small. It keeps you comfortable.

Most people ask, “Will I regret doing this?”
But I think the real question is, “Will I regret not doing this?”
