Model test photo

As promised here some photos from my recent model test photo shoot for those of you gripped by the inside my stylist's bag post! I've only got what the photographer sent and so these are untreated and not high res images. I'm quite pleased with my contribution to the outcome - whether the model is successful or not, whether these photos help her to get booked, is another issue - I won't go into that here!!

This was my favourite look - it is quite strong and shows off her figure without too much else going on!

It annoys me when the photographer doesn't get me to check all the shots, as I can see a crease in the top - he'll have to get that photoshopped!

Again I've got nipple shields! It was actually a cold studio...

I was forever sorting out the t-shirt but I like this shot because the colour of tee and her makeup work well - it's a nice fresh look but I wish this was perfect then it would be great!

Tor of Fabulous Frocks and Fashion Disasters challenged me to reveal what is in my bag, after she had bared all. Given my school bag is quite dull, a few notebooks, some books, a pencil case, my ipod and my Filofax which also carries all my cards, receipts and oyster card, I thought my bag from last week's model test shoot might be more interesting.

Normally I have a wheelie case but I bust it with too much stuffing and lazily bouncing it up and down steps instead of carrying it properly. I need to replace but so far no peeks in TK Maxx has yielded a bargain replacement although I did spy this nice number in Topshop Oxford Circus on Saturday.

Actually only having a holdall to fill went quite well and as I'd planned the looks with the photographer beforehand I kept things to a minimum. It was my first time working with a young up and coming photographer and I was sort of thinking gosh how young everyone is, the hair and make up peeps too. I'm glad he wanted me for my input and experience and it was all quite sweet. Dazed Korea were at the same studios doing a shoot and they were quite a serious team. I always feel like the naughty person when I work with people I don't know, everyone takes it way more seriously than I do! When I get some images I'll post the new photos. Helena was a lovely young lady from Norway and I think the shots taken on Friday will do wonders for her card! Of which you'll be able to judge...

In my bag, or dans mon sac il y a....

I've just taken the iron and towel out before laying the contents out for you to see.

l to r, jewellery pouch, my last Primark tee offering (at £2.49 they were real bargains!), short denim skirt, metal stud belt, 3 x white vests, gunmetal boob tube.

l to r, the belt, vests, and boob tube again, sequined scarf on bag, crumpled black Ralph Lauren cocktail dress at the front with snakeskin belt on top and black tuxedo jacket.
