A more natural me

Today's blog is about my love for polaroid photos and old film cameras, from looking at other photographers work, they seem to give a  feel to the image which has more feeling and personality. However I cant afford film cameras or anything of the sort, I only have the camera I have at the moment is because I'm lending it off my ex boyfriend! I began to look for alternatives, downloading software which turned my picture into a 'polaroid', which of course it didn't, it looked horrendous!I nearly gave up until a good friend of mine Andy helped me out and showed me how to get the affect i wanted. There not perfect yet, but since it was my first go i am very happy with the result! 
The pictures are a bonus as i can use them for my portfolio, which is good because they show my natural side, im usually very picky with photos showing my brace or which arnt edited of my face, but i think its time to accept who i am, instead of only liking images of my self which are so edited they don't look like me anymore! Also would love to do a few photos for my LOOKBOOK with the same effect.

Mother Goose

I think everyday i look more and more like her, i was planning to get my hair cut short when my undercut grows, but it might be taking the mic and just completely copying her, but she was cool!

cute for a 12 year old

hahahahahahahah hahaha ugly

since when have i even looked liked this,
tbh i was sick of doing shitty shoots, i remember waking up and being like, fuck this i cba, but because id all ready canceled on the photographer one day, i felt bad
it was the day after i first had my hair cut and really couldnt be arsed to do anything with it
these pictures are terrible, its not even the lack of enthusiasm i had, or the fact they look like a picture your mam would buy when your 12 for the mantel piece, but why the fuck is the second picture so bright on my face. thers nothing worse then a bad photo, which is badly edited
makes me laugh though, never mindddddd

New Pictures

my first photoshoot with my short hair, i dont know what i prefer my boy mates are telling me to grow it but my girl ones are telling me to keep it,
as for the photos i think there okay, the colours stand out which i really like, i dont like the fact when i do a awkward pose i get a gathering of skin which looks like fat,
eg: first 2 pictures
but im sure i can get over it

red lipstick on me makes me instantly look like a whore

'somewhere else'

somewhere else is the name of the photo, the clothes i go styled in where weird, but i didnt have to wear my own, so im happy about it, im not sure on the photo yet, i dont love it or hate it

New Hair

My facebook profile picture, black and white makes any picture looks nicer i think, dont worry this isnt the way im going to have my fringe all the time, i would be no face for life, i havnt decided what to do with it yet :(

green lips hmm

i said i would take a picture for my friend conor just for him, but after sending it i noticed that i spelt his name wrong, CTRL Z wasnt working so i had to just put a line across the n on paint

got a new picture back today

i dont know if its just me, but i think i look like a cartoon or something, over edited i dont know its just around my stomach it seems like really weird and fake, i look like a sims character, or maybe i look into it too much

Look at my hair, what the fuck have i done to it

gaaaaaaah, i dont know if cutting my hair was a good idea or not, may go shorter 

world wind of emotions

I thought i would make a blog, to document my life and how fucking shit it is.
i think it would be interesting when im older to read back and see what i have done and what i have achieved, as you can  probably tell i am not a grammar natzi, i cant spell and i dont even care.
i wish i made a blog earlier it would have been class to document how i am going with my modeling, im not going to dwell in the past though, so im going to post one picture from each set i have done so far on this post, then after i will post pictures when i receive them, and comment on what i like and all the things i dislike about it.




My most recent picture i have received, i do like this, mainly for the fact it doesnt look like me, im so glad i got my creepers, the classic creeper pose i do always gets picked from the photographer. i dont have much to say about this photo, i probably will after a few days and begin to hate it




I think this photo is the best out of my portfolio, i dont even look pretty on it but it deffs has a fashion feel to it, compared to the others which are more 'indie' marrrn




Like i said, classic creepers pose, i like this photo because of my black lips, none  of the other photos turned out very good though, when it focused into my face you could see how badly my makeup had been done, and my hair was so flat.

 

I allways enjoy my shoots with mark, he is the one person who actually plays music whilst im posing, which helps me relax sooooooo much, i like how my skin looks nice but i hated how you could see my brace in nearly every photo, upsets me quite a bit.




I was so awkward on this shoot, it was a bunch of men all taking photos of like 4 models, it was a group shoot thing, ahhhhhhhhh gawd, the location says it all, graffiti walls, i guess i didnt get the memo that it was for slaggy wannabee glamour models who wore less material covering there fake baked bodies than i would have ever thought possible, so yeah i was this tall skinny flat chested girl who only brought this outfit and a joy division tee.




ah i liked this one, hair in face = kewl photo
my hair is rats tho




I cried actually so much after this, after being referred to as david bowie, and being the ugliest and fattest model there, was awful, i remember coming home after having a tab, i lay in bed crying at how ugly i am,  decided i am going on a diet and never modeling again. im so dramatic, but it is a bad photo i must admit




ahhhhh my indie as fuck photos from richy, i like these, these where on ASOS.com
meggaaa high five for me, since i had zero experience and shit dip dyed hair
i dont even look like me, i think im a lot skinnier now than what i was in this picture
i do like it though, they went down a storm on faceybee




OH GAWDDDDDDD bless me i was so awkward on this, it was my first propper shoot with daniel, i didnt know what to do, shannon came with me, she took the absolute piss out me, i love her shes such a cunt




hahahhahaa omg it is a cringe to look at this, it wasnt even that long ago ither
we had a photographer come into college and my tutor suggested that i should model, because my photo came out okay compared to the others. i guess without college i wouldnt have ever started modeling
