Modeling

My friend Becky's daughter Amy wants to get into modeling, mostly part time. I, on the other hand, desperately need to update my portfolio. All I have right now is travel photos. I need to expand my gallery. What I need is a portrait gallery. So, what to do when you don't have money to pay for models? You ask your family, friends, their kids and even strangers to pose for you. It's tougher with strangers. I am working on that.

Anyway, my friend Becky and Amy came by the studio, where I employ as a digital retoucher, on Saturday. I had two hours to get my act together and produce something usable. Amy was like a pro. She was so comfortable, first time modeling, in front of the camera which really made my job so much easier. (There are so many agencies especially Elite and Ford would love to represent Amy).

I thought the shoot went pretty well. I can definitely think Now I am going to do some homework for next week's shoot--my cousins are modeling for me.
