“My name is Paula Rey Jiménez, I am a professional photographer from Spain living in New York City. I am a photojournalist, and at the moment I work in the marketing department at The New York Film Academy. I like to take pictures, I like to dance, I love music, and I love food, all sorts of food. I enjoy spending time with my family, with my husband and my dog. When I was a child I had a car accident with my family. I was two years old, I don’t remember anything, only from stories that my parents have told me. After a long time in a coma and many many surgeries I woke up like a brand new little girl, I was ok, I just looked a bit different. I don’t think I could understand the feelings that I had at the time. My emotions about this experience have been changing during my entire life. I am a photojournalist, I take pictures, all I want to do is capture the moment, because I know that we will forget one day, but I will have all these pictures to remember. Being a woman is a big sentence, I don’t think I feel different than if I was a boy, I like to be sexy and fun, but I think that’s just as a human being. Once you accept yourself and you accept you as a woman is then that you feel very feminine.”
