The photographs and accompanying film highlight the Tumblr icon and model Diana Veras' early days as a girl on the internet, and who she is now.

It was nearly a decade ago that photographer Ashley Armitage first saw photos of Diana Veras.

“I brought on this makeup artist who does cool, experimental makeup. Her name's Cassandra Lee, and we just put Diana in a clown face and then put her in Sandy Liang clothes,” Armitage says. “I feel like there was this interesting kind of disconnect between what she was wearing and what her makeup was, which I feel like is really fun.

“I’m still just a girl on the internet figuring it out,” Veras says in the film. “And like all these experiences and all these things that happened through my life I didn't really understand it. I was just a kid chasing a dream and I still am. I still feel that way every day.”Ashley ArmitageI would love to just hear a little bit about how this came to be.

At that point I was just like, "Oh, this could be stock, the idea." It became a thing where I had Diana call me and leave me voice memos, notes and I would just take these VO and cut it to some of the footage, and then ask for more photography from her starting out, and messing around with it until it felt like we had at least a story that I wanted to, at least in some way reflect Ashley's work a little bit.
