Yey, I'm back....and this time I'm here to STAY!!!

It's been good hey, don't even know where to start the excitement is just so much. I've made so much progress and honestly I want to focus on my modeling career now and this blog is just so much a part of it. Having done PR, I plan to take full advantage and full use of my blog to get me as much exposure as possible.

Well, this is what I've been up to.
I've done a few fashion shows, editorial shoots and so much more in the year that I've been away.
Also I've joined one of Cape Town's biggest modeling agencies... YES, I'm moving cities and moving UP!

My plan is to focus on my modeling and to keep my you guys updated, and hopefully get a here sponsors for my blog...but all that will be done in the right time.

Here are some awesome pictures of the work I've been doing:

Editorial
 My recent major editorial shoot, so exciting. was the Autumn/Winter fashion photo shoot, which can now be seen at all Bata stores across the country.
 Also, just recently I did an Editorial shoot for the Bata, Tomy Takkie range, I must admit there are so many styles and colours to choose from and at just R119.00, I couldn't resist!!!

Fashion Shows
In June last year, I was 1 of the models at the 3 day opening of the Vogue at Umhlanga in Durban

Photoshoot with Durban photographer Tareen Ellis, she mentioned me on her blog!!!!!

I'm always preaching to aspiring models that given the opportunity to work with a new photographer, always make a good impression. Give the photographer what they're looking for- tense is not cute! besides, you're trying to be sexy yet professional. The more photographers you work with the better your experience and your growth in the modeling industry. Remember photographers always talk about models they've worked with so this could be either good or bad depending on your performance. If you're new to the industry and you're not too sure about posses and expressions, always listen to the photographer, it's always best to practise at home find your best angles this improves your confidence and your photos.

I really enjoyed working with Tareen and I'm humbled by her blog post.

What it takes to be a great model_ photoshoot

I really enjoyed watching this video, it's just basic tips for when you're at a photoshoot.  Like during a photoshoot you need to become someone else, flirt with the camera, have fun only worry about getting the best shots- don't be shy! You also need to know your best angles, the photographer might not necessarily know your best angles so practise at home so that you can get as many good shots as possible. It's a waste of time when the photographer is trying to find your best angles, it's also much better working with someone who knows what they're doing. Remember photographers also talk a lot about models they've worked with so if you want to grow in the industry always do your best at a photoshoot, give the photographer what they're looking for and have fun.
