I AM NOT MY DIAGNOSIS

People are so much more than their medical label

A multimedia project about breaking free from the chains of mental illness and celebrating who people are outside of their medical label.

Each individual in the series has been photographed doing the things they love in the spaces of their choosing all while wearing a tag that details their mental health condition, all of this aims to show how little a diagnosis means in the grand scheme of someone’s life.

I Am Not My Diagnosis is in the process of being turned into a full-length photobook, website, and a series of short films. The project aims to raise funds and awareness towards the mental health cause.

This project is ongoing and I am looking for more individuals to photograph, if you want to share your mental health journey with the world, please reach out to me!
