    I'm sorry you've made the decision to show your face, however I COMPLETELY understand how the extra burden of setting up lights just to get a good shot would influence your decision. As for you being "too pretty", Epilepsy doesn't care. We need as many faces as possible to show that Epilepsy can affect anyone. I support your decision either way. Keep up the great work!
