The Woes of an Aspiring Model! (big sarcasm hand)

Yesterday was my first time ever at a photo shoot. The location was at some girls house and I didn't even get my own dressing room, whats with that. I had to use low quality make up and the only person I had to do my hair was some teenage girl, not exactly the quality that I am used to. It was probably 96 degrees outside and they wanted me to wear black! Oh my gosh it was horrible!

All hysteria aside I had a fun photo shoot at my house yesterday with some friends and of course, my sisters. It was so much fun! We did each others make up and wore, for the most part, interesting outfits. Jessica, my oldest sis, was dressed in a burgundy prom dress that had to have been from the 80s. It was short in the front and long in the back with the most hideous lace balloon sleeves I have ever seen. With her hair done up in a fashionable side pony and gaudy blue eye shadow it was needless to say old fashioned. Heidi on the other hand had on a maroon go go dress with fishnet tights, a black leather jacket, and hair as poofy as we could make it, and lets not forget the black commando boots. We kept her pictures looking on the verge of tears and capturing her in black and white put a real depressive look into the whole thing. Next came me, I had on skinny jeans, red converse, a black ruffle shirt, a gray vest and a long pink beaded necklace. My hair was expertly done by Ashlee Stanford and if you haven't heard of her, then you most definitely should. She put it in loose curls that framed my face and last, but surely not least, a pink feather in my hair. Ashlee was the last to have her pics taken and she kept her pictures on the shy looking side. with her hair and outfit of her own creation, she made the modeling career look easy. Finally I must not forget our awesome photographer Abbie Isaac! She did an awesome, capturing us in all our silliness.

If you ever want to get together and take silly model pictures, I recommend it. I had so much FUN!
