Love To Show IT Off, Hate When People Stare is a comprehensive collaborative project in which fourteen women, including myself, confront traumatic universal experiences. By creating a space for reflection, growth, and healing through mediated images and hand written text, this body of work proves that despite these negative experiences, you can regain lost confidence and empowerment by recognizing that you are never alone in your journey.

Artist Highlight: Stephanie Varone

Stephanie Varone is a Long Island–based fashion and fine art photographer whose work radiates energy, style, and vision. With a BFA in Photography and Imaging and a minor in Business of Art and Design, she blends conceptual self-portraiture with bold editorial fashion shoots. Music fuels her inspiration, while styling, makeup, and wardrobe bring her imagery to life.

Working with Stephanie means true collaboration! Aligning visions, blending perspectives, and creating something greater together.

It’s teamwork in full color.
