Photographer to snap topless shots for cancer awareness

Since Rebecca Rosin was 9, she has been obsessed with photography.

"Since my dad taught me with his manual camera, I haven't been able to put it down," she said.

Her love of photography led to her to start her own business and ultimately plan "Go Topless," a fundraiser for breast cancer awareness.

"I saw this black-and-white picture of a woman just wearing jeans, and I was just inspired because it was sexy but powerful," she said.

For $15, women can be photographed by Rosin from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday at UF Hillel.

All proceeds will go to the American Cancer Society and various other organizations that support breast cancer research.

Rosin said Go Topless is meant to encourage women to make a statement, bring attention to breast cancer and raise money.

Although subjects will be topless, there will be no nudity or suggestive poses.

"We are encouraging women to hold up a sign with the answer to why they are going topless or just cross their arms in front of their chest," Rosin said.
