\nMovember Man – PIXELCHRISTI<\/p>\n

Movember<\/strong><\/p>\n

My family has persevered this month, and not just with the obligatory November Norovirii and other school-based plagues, they’ve also persevered with me. My 7 year old daughter didn’t cry when I shaved my mostly permanent beard off; my partner, Rachel, didn’t flinch when she saw my naked face for the first time in two years, although whenever I have shaved on a whim previously, she has reacted like I was an impostor, unable to look me in the eye.<\/p>\n

The reason they persevered so well is because the reason I did it is a good one. Many of us will have some connection to someone who has had to deal with prostate and testicular cancer. I certainly have. So for the second time I decided to upset the family and grow a mo’ for Movember ( Movember and Sons – United Kingdom<\/b><\/a> ). They’ve been brilliant about it, to the point where our daughter gets upset when she sees a man without a Mo’ in the month of November.<\/p>\n

For my part, I’ve been doing a self-portrait each week (or close enough) and posting on the ‘tinternet for all to point and laugh at. You can see them here, along with the rest of my website: Movember – Self Portraits<\/b><\/a> \u2013 there’s one more to come, on November 30, when I get to regrow my face fungus and vow never to do it again. Well, that’s what my family think.<\/p>\n

It’s been an interesting exercise, from a professional point of view too. Self-portraits are an invaluable tool: for trying out new techniques, and also for showing yourself the concerns that a sitter may have in front of your lens. It’s an exercise that I’ll be continuing and one I heartily recommend to other photographers. Heck if I can make my face look acceptable, then pretty much anyone else is on to a winner. <\/p>\n

You can see my other work here: Christi MacPherson – Photographer<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n
