Ashley Graham is helping to promote body positivity among women in a new lingerie shoot that she directed for Glamour Magazine.

A group of four women showed up to do their first ever lingerie shoot and the women spoke to Ashley about their struggles with their bodies. The women either had an eating disorder, scars or love handles which made them not completely comfortable with their bodies.

Ashley encouraged the girls to focus on the parts of their bodies that they love and show it off in the shoot so they would feel more comfortable while pictures of them were being taken. This is one of her tricks in photo shoots as she avoids the areas that she is insecure about and focuses on her favorite body parts.

She and some of the women about how the media hardly portrays women with different body types and how it makes some women feel insecure.  Due to the fact that the same body type is being shown repeatedly and that body type is deemed perfection, it can cause stress and body image issues for women. The heartfelt video may be viewed below.
