I always thought, "oh, it would be nice to do", but never actually pursued it. It was a lot of fun. I am so glad I did it. In years past, I would have turned this opportunity down - insecure and shy. Here's how this opportunity presented itself.....
Tuesday night, I am at our college men's basketball game, like 3,000 people or so there, I am walking back to my seat (in the nose bleed section) and a girl approaches me. She is young, nicely dressed and says, we are looking for a girl with long hair like yours for a photo shoot we are doing this Thursday. I'm thinking, "yeah, right, sure...." I took her business card and gave her my info, thinking nothing of it.
After scoping out their website, I decided I was going to email them about the photo shoot to decide if I wanted to do it. They asked for a couple a couple expressionless photos for hair & make-up along with my measurements.
The email came back from the company owner/President saying they would love to have me for the shoot. Ahhhhh! So excited and nervous at the same time.
29 has certainly sparked something inside of me. I am definitely LIVING life now. I took a leap of faith and worked a half day (I never use my vacation days for just ME) for the shoot. This was such an amazing experience and I am blessed to have been given it.
my "head shot"....haha! (taken in my office w/my iphone) that landed me the gig
The next few pics are just me snapping a few photos of my hair & make-up after the shoot in my car...
