HEY! I really like this whole blogging thing. The internet can be a lot of fun! Who knew (answer: everyone except me.)? I used to have another blog once upon a time, but I neglected it and hated it a lot. I think that probably has a lot to do with the fact that I was trying to write it in someone else's voice. I was trying to be the writer and the audience, AND I was trying to be someone I thought was cool. Cool, I am not. I'm nerdy and neurotic and overly enthusiastic and fun. Not that other person I was trying to make myself into. I guess the take away is that on the internet, much like in real life, things are much more fun when you are just YOURSELF.
OKAY. Enough of a model trying to think things. Here are some pictures. These were all shot with Josue Pena. He's obviously amazing. We've done a couple of shoots together. Hair is by Carolina Yasukawa, with the exception o This IS a Halloween Post! SO when I was first modeling, I did some kind of promo shoot thing for Salon Sessions in Pasadena. I think the gist of it was we do a bunch of avant guard hair stuff to update the books of the stylists at the salon, which they can use to show everyone how awesome they were (truthfully, they were really awesome at hair). I think it was maybe my second or third shoot ever. ANYWHO, the photographers, Joe Rubinstein and Joe Miller, were super nice, and we became friends AND myspace friends (we go THAT far back), and then it turned out Joe Rubinstein had this crazy place called The Compound in El Serreno, and he ended up renting me a room there (it was my first place in LA proper, when I flew the nest of Claremont). AND he became my boss at Polite in Public. So that was all unnecessary nonsense to let you know that the pictures I'm about to share with you were from a shoot I did with Joe Rubinstein. And also that they are OLD. It was a LONG TIME AGO. I had bangs, I lived at The Compound, and life was weird. He was working on a photography pet project that centered around fights. This one was a model fight. I fought Piper Hinson. She won. Also, in case you weren't clear, none of this is remotely real. It's all model fighting, and modeling things is all about being a representation of them (i.e., fake. Oh no...am I real girl?!?). SO PLEASE DON'T HAVE NIGHTMARES ON MY ACCOUNT! Don't scroll if you're squeamish about obviously fake violence. Once upon a time I shot this fall editorial with Jac and Belle for 80s purple. We shot overnight in long beach, and thanks to Jac, that was the night I fell in love with Jim Gaffigan. My life has truly never been the same. Hot pockets, you guys.
So, in honor of halloween coming up and all, here are some random pictures from that shoot of me being a creeper. Oh yeah, there is a fashion video some So this great photographer I've tested with a couple of times, Jeff Wayne, hired me to model for a shoot for Eyeshadow Clothing.
Their clothes are super cute. If you are a girl and you buy things ever, at pretty much any store, chances are you've run across their goods. We shot at a private airplane hanger where super rich people have their private planes. More specifically, we shot with a WWII plane. I am normally extremely superstitious about private planes. I just feel like that's how people in entertainment die. I made friends with a dude from the DRC once, and to thank me for showing him around LA he tried to surprise me with a flight in a small private plane. I had to say hell-to-the-no. BUT, for this shoot, I had to get into the cockpit of this little 400lb, paper thin bi-plane with no roof...and...it really made me want to learn to fly. So thanks Eyeshadow Clothing, for giving me an appetite for something that used to terrify me. And also for hiring me for a really fun shoot!! =) PS....They also hired me to work as a model in their show room for LA Market Week. That was a first for me. It was like a runway show for 9 hours, but without annoying music. Everyone there is super nice, I'm really thankful for the opportunity & work, AND their stuff is just so cute. I can't wait for everything I wore to be out in stores so I can go shopping! Hope I get to work with them again soon! I don't have final images, but here's some behind the scenes fun! Thanks, instagram! I modeled for Sauipe Swimwear on the show "The Fashion Team". That's really all there is to say about that I guess. That's me with the curly hair. Uhh....they tried to makeup me slightly more tan. It didn't really work. I swear I have other pictures from this day. Maybe I'll find them. But probably not.
I modeled on the news! I did a "Get That Look" segment on the KTLA morning news. Hair by Carolina Yasukawa, Makeup by Jen Evans. Oh yeah, and the look you're "getting"? Lady Gaga's. I was the "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich" model. I'm so vain, I really wish that song was about me. Mostly the rich part.
