Top model

Had my first ever photo shoot last week. Needed a photo for my job so made an appointment to get one taken. Had to cancel once, felt relieved at first, but then realized I need to get another one. Then it was the case of, omg, need to get fit and crossed my fingers to have some kind of normal skin for that time. Choosing the outfit was a nightmare, nothing fits together or looks professional enough -.- eventually managed to put something together. So on the day went there, the studio was very nice and cosy. Had make up done, a pretty thick one, but it's what u need to look perfect I guess. Did my hair in the morning, as I thought I wanna have something different from everyone else and that my superduper long hair would seem to go on forever on the photo. And now the taking photos part...well, if one thinks they are gonna look like Heidi Klum and be toppest of all the top models and pose for every shot then hahaa. Since I don't like taking pictures (Jazz can tell all kinds of funny stories how I escape from them) I was standing there, doing what the photographer said, mainly feeling awkward for having an absolutely empty head and no ideas what poses to take. At least I tried to think about nice things to have a natural smile and not to look fake. Oh yeah, I have sensitive eyes, meaning they are extra sensitive for the flash and closed on many of the shots. So in the end, after all this effort, out of 200 shots I will have 15-20. All the work to get 20 photos. Now I'm just waiting for them to arrive and fingers crossed they look nice!

PS! Got back to work and noticed a teeny tiny black speck on my lip – great if I had it there all the time, well done Ems, well done!
