The Atlas Of Beauty: photos of beautiful women from around the world

Romanian photographer Mihaela Noroc is traveling around the world in order to capture portraits of beautiful women for her ongoing project, called “The Atlas Of Beauty”.

Happiness usually means to do what you love. Everybody says that in order to be happy, you should follow your dreams. This is what a Romanian photographer has done. Mihaela Noroc has quit her job and has decided to travel around the world with a backpack and a camera in her hand.

The photographer has traveled to 37 countries so far in order to work on her portrait photo project, called “The Atlas Of Beauty”. Mihaela is aiming to show that beauty is everywhere, so she is capturing portraits of beautiful women from Western Europe to Africa and from Brazil to China.

This portrait photo project has a clear goal. The artist says that beauty is diverse and that you need to travel across the globe in order to discover it.

“The Atlas Of Beauty” is focused on natural, authentic faces. Mihaela Noroc says that you must “keep alive your origins and your culture” in order to be beautiful.

As the world is moving at a fast pace, the photographer fears that women will lose their uniqueness in 50 years, as they could eventually “dress and act the same”. This means that beauty will no longer be diverse, so this image series will be a testimony of the diverse and rich cultures of this era.

Although the artist has already visited 37 countries, the project will not stop here. The idea is to visit as many places as possible and to capture more authentic beauties on her camera.

Traveling on a low budget to discover beauty from all over the globe

Photographer Mihaela Noroc has discovered beauty not just in Romania, but in other European countries as well. Although she is traveling on a low budget, she has managed to leave the continent and to visit Africa, South America, North America, Australia, and Asia.

Among the countries she has visited, we can find Ethiopia, Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, USA, New Zealand, China, Myanmar, Uzbekistan, Iran, the UK, and Latvia.

“The Atlas Of Beauty” will continue to expand and it is also aimed at serving as an inspiration to all women, inviting them to remain authentic and to always be themselves.

You can keep track of Mihaela’s progress on her official Tumblr page.

Update: the photographer has started an IndieGogo campaign in order to raise funds for her project. If you enjoyed the project, then go ahead and support the artist. The crowd-funding campaign runs until April 26, 2015.
