🌟 Another amazing HERO to celebrate! 🌟

As part of my Heroes Project, I had the honour of photographing yet another incredible nurse 👩‍⚕️💙. Their dedication, compassion, and strength inspire us all, and capturing that spirit through my lens is truly humbling.

📸 These portraits are my way of saying thank you to our frontline heroes – the people who go above and beyond every single day.

💡 If you know a nurse, paramedic, firefighter, police officer, or care worker who deserves recognition, please tag them below or share this post so we can continue shining a light on these everyday legends.

✨ Proud to be part of a community that values and supports our heroes.
