Wow, two posts this month I'm sure you're shocked ha ha. Well this post is going to cover one thing mostly. I have decided to do a photo project for the rest of this year. I often end up taking photos of myself at the last minute because I'm not sure which photographers I want to use or why I might want to use them. For the next six months of the year I'm going to set up a shoot with at least one photographer a month for either contests, castings or just cause I want to because you know I don't really do a whole lot of contests. Of course it adds to my portfolio so it's a win for me regardless but I also like to see what other people do with my image and their creativity because I can have a billion ideas but implementing them requires much more brain matter than I have to spare some days. For anyone that visits my flikr page they would have already seen the first two photos in Project 2010. They were done by Shae Sixpence for the AVENUE casting. I didn't make the shortlist but I liked the photo so much I sent it in for the Miss Virtual World July casting. Not holding my breath on that one but heck I was beautiful damn it lol.
The next few photos that will be added come from Temperance Moonites for the Miss Azul contest and two extra for my portfolio. I couldn't decide which dress to choose so I had two outfits and the one that pops the most is off to the contest. The other will just be new pretty pictures of me. And will give me the chance to see what I look like in another photographers eyes. For any photog that might read this, sorry if I get quiet during the shoot. I try not to do too much to disturb my eye lock and just start drifting off in my brain to think of how fantabulous you are going to make me look. So I need to set up the next few months of photographers and would love recommendations. There is at least one old favorite I'll be revisiting but that takes one of six months. And December might be overload since it's my RL birth month.
I swear I was gonna mention something else in this post but now I so don't remember what it is. So instead I'll say what just popped into my head. Congratulations to all the lovely Black female avatars for making the short list of AVENUE models and those that have been chosen to represent the country of their choice in the Miss Virtual World 2011. There were way more than I expected and it gives me hope that working in darker skin isn't always an impediment. And a special congratulations to a blog friend, EmeraldEyes Honi, who is on a fantastic role with being chosen to be a Modavia Supermodel, AVENUE shortlist and Miss UK in Miss Virtual World 2011. She's a great inspiration and fantastic model. Good luck to all of you ladies.
Ok it's way past dinner time let me go eat---Rouge
Duh remembered what it was lol. Wrapped the longest show I've been in for a while this weekend and it was great lag battle. And I found out that the theme I chose won an internal Maniera contest with two other models providing the accompanying statement. Yippee for Keira Tyles and Imani Enzo for the joint win. Can't wait for the shoot. Bye for real this time
