Little did she know she was about to embark on a project that would captivate the world of <em><strong>women empowerment<\/strong><\/em> and far beyond. A backpacking trip to Ethiopia inspired the next four years of her life which she spent capturing the inner and outer beauty of over 2,000 women in 53 countries with her photographs. In September 2017 her project culminated with the release of a book titled <em><strong>The Atlas of Beauty:\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><span id=\"productTitle\" class=\"a-size-large\"><em><strong>Women of the World in 500 Portraits<\/strong><\/em>.<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/bykoket.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-22345\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bykoket.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/The-Atlas-of-Beauty.jpg\" alt=\"The Atlas of Beauty - Women of the World in 500 Portraits Book by Mihaela Noroc - Women empowerment - cover - photograph of woman in india - beautiful women\" width=\"710\" height=\"917\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nA stunning collection of colorful <em><strong>portraits of women<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0in their local communities accompanied by each of the women&#8217;s stories fills the pages of the book. It celebrates women around the world and reveals that beauty is everywhere, and that it comes in many forms. We are inundated by images of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bykoket.com\/blog\/influential-testino-portrait-behind-cameras\/\">what beauty &#8220;should&#8221; look like<\/a> in the media &#8211; <em><strong>The Atlas of Beauty<\/strong> <\/em>is the antithesis &#8211; it shows the diversity of beauty and sends the message that we do no need to fit into a mold, we are each beautiful in our own special way. And that is a beautiful thing!<br \/>\nIn an interview with NPR&#8217;s Lulu Garcia-Navaro, Mihaela explains that the project which led to the book began as &#8220;<em>something very genuine; I just was photographing people that I met and after a year, when [my project] became very popular, I realized that I have to be more responsible and I have to work more.<\/em>&#8221; So to work she went!<br \/>\nOn\u00a0<em><strong>The Atlas of Beauty<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0website Mihaela&#8217;s words provide a glimpse into who she is, and how she hopes her project empowers women around the world to love themselves for who they are.<br \/>\n<em>&#8220;Even though The Atlas of Beauty became very popular all around the world, I\u2019m the same ordinary person, with the same backpack like 4 years ago, that loves to explore the unnoticed beauty which lies in people around us.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>I see myself like a very normal woman, with ups and downs. I work hard for my dream, and, by chance, this dream is very appreciated by mass media. But there are millions of women in the world, that work even harder for their goals and maybe their activities don\u2019t seem so spectacular from the outside.\u00a0I hope I will have the chance to photograph some of them for the project, capturing their inner and outer beauty and showing them how special they are.&#8221;<\/em><br \/>\nSo many women struggle with confidence and the ability to see themselves as beautiful whether it be on the inside or out.\u00a0 The women in Mileaela&#8217;s portraits are all beautiful, all 500 of them, and not in the sense of super model beautiful, but real true individual natural beauty radiating from within. As you flip through the pages of her book you cannot help but be inspired to believe in your own beauty, and that of the world! She tells\u00a0NPR&#8217;s Lulu Garcia-Navaro, &#8220;<em>I did realize the women I photographed were not confident in the way they were. I posted their photos on social media and, after they saw all the comments on social media, they saw [their beauty]. [We] are convinced we have to be a certain way and we are never secure in our own way. From an early age you can really understand that we can be confident and beautiful and however we want. We don&#8217;t have to try to change. I think it&#8217;s a very big confidence booster<\/em>.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u201c<em>The idea is that we are all part of the same diverse family<\/em>,\u201d says Mihaela. \u201c<em>In the end, beauty is in our differences. It\u2019s about being yourself, natural and authentic, not about trends, race, or social status.<\/em>\u201d<br \/>\nScroll below to see some of our favorite images by Mihaela!
