Good afternoon Little Ones! How have you all been? I've just received my outcomes from a shoot I did on Tuesday 13th February, and I'm so pleased! This was my first "sexy" shoot, I never thought I'd be given this opportunity, or have the confidence, but I did it, and loved every single moment. If you want to read about my personal experience, and look at the photographs, be my guest, have a scroll!

ALSO I EDITED ALL THE BLACK AND WHITE IMAGES, THE COLOURED VERSIONS ARE TRULY MIA MARKINS WORK, THAT'S THE WAY SHE WANTS YOU TO VIEW HER PHOTOGRAPHS.

OVERALL OBJECTIVE:

Mia Markin (the photographer) had an overall objective of what she wanted to achieve, her initial concept was female form, Mia wanted to showcase several ways in which females are presented. 

In this specific shoot, her idea was to place me in a natural surrounding and mirror what I do in the morning, lighting remained crucial as she wanted to capture several shadows which enhanced female form. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't forgiving, some of the images didn't make the final cut, as it was too bright and wasn't what she was looking for. 

Although, her other main focus was females' key attributes: breast, collar-bone, hips and bottom, as portrayed in the first image, the main emphasis is my collar-bone and cleavage. These features 

differentiates women from men, and seeing that this module is based on female form; Mia thought to portray the key features of a women, and photograph these elements differently. 

HOW I FELT BEFORE AND AFTER THE SHOOT:

Exceedingly nervous. Evidently, I'm no stranger to photo shoots, I've grown accustomed to several photographers taking images of me, but never in my underwear. If someone had asked me to do that a year ago, I would have laughed in their face.

Mia made me feel so relaxed, we were laughing throughout, which helped my nerves subside. Something else I should mention, Mia was completely content, especially when I felt anxious about a particular position,  although after a while it became natural, I felt at ease with her and didn't care that she could see me in my underwear.  

Our passion for  photography helped break the ice, I put forward ideas which she followed through with, and others not so much; but we were experimenting, besides this was her piece of work; I just helped her portray her overall image. 

When it was time to wrap up, gratitude and pleasure engorged my anxiety, I was so pleased that I managed to go through with the idea of being photographed in my underwear. It's something that I've always wanted to do, but NEVER had the confidence to actually go through with it.

On a daily basis I head over to Instagram and wonder, 'why don't I look like that?' It's so unhealthy to compare yourself to other individuals, but it happens. This photo shoot for a few moments made me feel fantastic, and that I didn't need to compare myself to others. 

WHAT DO I THINK OF THE IMAGES?

Initially, when I knew I was going to be photographed in underwear, I thought I would hate the way I looked, but Mia took the images in such a way,  it complimented my assets, without revealing too much. I adore Mia's work, and I can't wait to work with her in the near future. 

Mia has a natural talent when it comes to photography, I pondered on an Instagram post which made me fall in love with her work. She kindly came all the way down from Norwich to my home town ... Which takes 2/3 hours. She's an amazing person, if you ever get the chance to work with her, consider yourself grateful. 

Right Little Ones, this is the end of my blog post, I hope you enjoyed the read as well as the photography! If you want to see Mia's work, click the link below, that takes you directly to her portfolio! 

If you want to see more photo shoots please do let me know! I love you all so very much, and I will see you tomorrow in a book review! 

Remember to stay safe and stay tuned! :) x x x

MODELLING

HOW I STARTED MODELLING:

Good afternoon Little Ones! How have you all been? Third blog post this week! I feel so proud that I finally have a routine involved with my Blog! If you don't already know, I will be posting every: Monday, Wednesday and Friday, that's the aim I'm sticking to, I need to stay consistent. Any how, let's move onto today's blog post! I've received a tone of messages regarding: how I got into modelling, do I still do it, is it your main job? All those questions will be answered today! So, without further or do, let's get reading.

THE BEGINNING:

We all start somewhere, but for me, I never had the initial idea of modelling, I'm 5ft4 ... Which automatically determines never getting into the industry. Any how, I remember sitting in town, and my fiance suggested taking photographs of me, (which I never did)-I was too shy and timid for anyone to do that.
But I felt great that day, the sun was shining, I was rocking out Chris's sunglasses, and decided to strike a few poses. We only took a couple, he showed me the outcomes; and I didn't think I looked half-bad, it then sprung to me, why don't I try modelling, it doesn't have to be serious, I could get into contact with a few photographs and see what they think. Chris thought that it would be a great way to boost my confidence in relation to my physical appearance, and overall diminish a section of my anxiety. 

For the first few weeks, I kept Chris taking my photos, as I was comfortable with him, after that it was time for my first shoot. I had learnt what poses looked best on my physique, and what I felt comfortable with. 

June 2017 was my first London shoot with a professional photographer, who I immediately felt at ease with, he was kind, and exceedingly easy to talk to; which helped when I showed him what look I was going for. At first I was nervous, as I had no idea what he was thinking, but he stated that despite my height; I had great potential. You could say that he was being nice, but he wasn't paid for this shoot, it wasn't like he was getting a large sum of money, he was genuine.

IS IT MY JOB?

As much as I enjoy modelling, I can't see myself doing it full-time. Simply because I have other personal hobbies I relish more, maybe in the near future; but I want to create something, instead of having my picture taken. That's not saying that I'm stopping, as I still do enjoy it, but I feel that I need to become more confident in my own skin, before a sign a contract.

I know many of you like the images I post on Instagram, and to be honest, knowing that you love them, makes me feel so content. I'm so pleased to know that I have over  5000 followers due to my modelling pictures! 

Like I've mentioned previously, when I feel comfortable with myself I may look into going into modelling full-time; as I believe it will help me grow, and love myself as a person. Not being vein, but loving yourself is the most important thing you can do, I just haven't got there yet.

WHAT WAS MY FAVOURITE SHOOT?

This is the easiest question to answer, without a doubt Rome was my favourite photo-shoot! I initially went there on holiday with Chris, and I managed to get into contact with a photographer that was working, he came to the apartment we were staying in, and proceeded to take some photographs of me! I was so honoured to work with him, and he managed to capture angles of me, I never thought of. He was extremely patient and understanding, and done a perfect job.

DO I HAVE ANYTHING PLANNED?

I do indeed! I have made arraignments with several photographs in London throughout the year, and I can't wait to show you the final outcomes! It's nothing secretive, I just need to set a final date for my first shoot of the year in January/February time; which will be with the same photographer I worked with, back in June last year. I have several mood boards planned, but they correlate with the time of year I'm shooting. Besides, I want an element of surprise for you lovely lot! 

Anyhow, this concludes today's blog post, I hope you enjoyed this little read, something very different from what I normally post. But I wanted something other hand a product review! I do have things cooking in the kitchen, so stay tuned for that! Coming later next week! 

If you want to see modelling updates, or what a dedicated post on a shoot I've participated in, then please do let me know, and I will do that for you. 

Also, please inform me if you want me to write something specific, leave a comment down below, or utilise my social media handles.

Please enjoy the rest of your day, and I will see you in the next blog post! Remember to stay safe, and stay tuned! :) x x x
