im ready for my closeup, its photo shoot time!

again i was up at the break of dawn, but this time a little earlier lol. 6am sharp and i was already brushing my teeth and folding all of my chosen and prepared outfits for my photo shoot.  i needed to catch the 6:55 ferry. a lot earlier than the 7:35 ferry i caught the day before! but this time i felt a little less dreary since i got a good night sleep from not taking naps beforehand. i wasnt nervous this time about driving into seattle because once i do something, i can do it over and over like its a piece of cake. i just have to get it over with and im fine.

i got to the ferry right on time at 6:52 am and the lady and the ticket box says "sorry we dont have a 6:55, theres a 6:50" i was like huh? but your web site says there is a 6:55 am ferry leaving on sunday and she goes "nope sorry you missed the 6:50" i was sooo frustrated that i had to drive around because this meant i was going to be late, and professionals are never late. so i called zynn and told her the situation and she said it was fine. i ended up making it to the door of the agency at 8:15 and to my surprise i wasnt late because zynn and the photographer were just arriving! if i had got there at 8am i would have been locked out anyways!

amanda (one of the younger girls in the class) was already getting her hair done by the time i had my clothes all laid out for zynns inspection. gregory wasnt there because photo shoots werent his thing hes is more for talent and  runway. anyways, zynn picked out the outfits i would be wearing , one jean outfit, one dressy, and one just for my headshot.  i had picked out all of my faveorite outfits so to me it did not matter which one i was wearing. angel was there doing our hair and makeup. its hard for me to trust others doing it because im used to looking a certain way. when i saw myself in the mirror after my makeup was done, i didnt like what i saw. "cant you put on just a little bit more mascara?" i asked. and of course "no! do you see those girls with piles of mascara on in abercrombie ad? you need to be freshfaced for these looks!" 

of course i got a lot more dramatic makeup on for my dressy (which i didnt like either) but in the end. when my photos were done and i got to look at some of the frames, i couldnt believe my eyes! i didnt look like me at all! the makeup looked completely different in the outside light on the street and on fim than it did in the bathroom. i loved it! and my photographer was amazing! he made me look so skinny when usually girls look bigger in photos! he also remembered me from 5 years back! i was very happy about that! i was also happy that they were still using my old comp cards for examples at the agency from when i was 15 years old! ahhh its nice to be back. ^_^

it was also nice to finally go home and sleep! megan and i were leaving at 3:00am on an airporter the next morning to catch a 6:05am plane to cali! man was i pooped.
