PORTFOLIO; this was essential is starting up, yes it was costly but in the long run it will make up for it. I admit that this was pretty nerve racking, I did doubt myself while walking into the studio, I didn’t think I would actually go through with it but the make up artist was so welcoming and talked me through how this process went. I got various make up looks done, with hair styles to match, the photographer was the nicest person and really made me feel comfortable- this being my first time I was unsure of how to pose but the results were absolutely amazing !

While waiting for the photos to be processed I remember sitting with my mum and thinking how amazing this was but I also couldn’t believe that I was actually doing it. After seeing the photos for the first time, I got so excited to start.

APPLYING TO AGENCIES; A few weeks on and my portfolio is ready, applying to agencies is great and some are so professional. I’ve had multiple interviews and agencies reach out to me to work with them. There have been some scammers trying to contact me but its obvious who’s legit and who isn’t. Of course I will be taking my own photos to add to my portfolio, the more the better!
