Before we get into the main part of the book, the models need to be introduced. You
will be seeing a lot of them throughout this book. They range in age from 23 to 56.
Some are tall and some are short. Some are thin and some are not. They are professionals,
students, wives, girlfriends, and mothers. One is a long-term cancer survivor,
having endured multiple treatments and surgeries. They are special. They are everywoman.
Most of the women traveled to the studio multiple times—some drove two to
three hours each way to get here. They endured cold and wet and long hours of work.
They all put in a tremendous effort to bring you the example images. Together we created
about 12,000 images to be able to choose and illustrate the lessons that follow. A
special thanks is due to them for participating in this project and showing the world a
more private part of themselves. Many of them started out as strangers to me, but they
are all friends now.
