Well here i am...
Filled with intrepidation and excitement. At 39 I wonder if I have what it takes to have a successful photo shoot, in a world that is dominated by youth and beauty. My body is far from perfect, Its endured the birthing of three beautiful boys and the ravishing of life. I'm definitely not a size six, i have smile lines (and dimples) AND I'm terribly camera shy!!!! All that aside i made a conscious decision last year that I was determined to change the direction of my life, do things that were totally foreign, face fears, take up challenges, tear down walls and build something fantastic....ME....
I arrived in Australia late January 2012, I have now learned that my prep for this shoot was a far cry from what models do to prepare. "They work hard for this". . . But i did up my exercising, exonerated junk food (this is not easy when you have three boys), cut out carbs and watched my portion sizes. I fake tanned and treated myself to a mani/pedi. I was feeling great :)
I've studied Sarah's work for months now and i truly feel the passion she has for her art. I love her images and am very blessed to have this opportunity to shoot with her. If i was asked to describe her work with one word it would be "EXQUISITE"
I have asked questions but i really have no idea what to expect on the day except the unexpected. I'm also under no illusion that at my age modelling is not really a career path (or is it??????) for me but I'm also determined to explore every aspect of the industry so i can i fully appreciate the business entirely. Warts and all.
I AM INTRIGUED!!!
