Lending Face

I like to help people, I also like to have fun and try new things. It is in my nature to do the weird and wonderful whenever I can. What is the point of a boring life? because at the end of the day all we are left with is our memories and I want mine to be memories I am proud of, memories that make me smile when I am low. You know what I mean. Part of my philosophy is to say yes to as many opportunities that come my way as possible. If it turns out to be a terrible experience I just think well I am never doing that again ah well at least I tried. If I love it it could be that start of something beautiful. You cannot loose!

So with this in mind, a few weeks ago I was asked on thee separates occasions by three different people if I would lend my face to their work and help them out by modelling for them. Of course I said yes! (It is very flattering you see and I have a hideous ego to maintain.) Now each of these three shoots where very different from the next; The first was for a magazine article on the growing asian impact on western fashion, the second was a look book for a fashion students portfolio and the final shoot was for a graduate show and was a nude shoot for her to showcase the strength of the female body.

I really enjoyed each shoot for completely different reasons, partly because its fun being on the opposite side of the camera. The first shoot was fun because of the interesting concept and the locations that we used. The second was great because the garment I was wearing was really intricately beautiful and I kind of fell in love with it.  Finally the last shoot was enjoyable because it pushed me to my complete limits of comfort and it was strangely liberating afterwards.
