This was my very first modeling gig. It was a runway shoot for a very upscale, artsy shop in downtown Portland. The clothes are really for women, but they were looking for a way to show them in a different way. It was being filmed and it will be in a showcase for an art festival. And for publicity for their shop. It was just me and one other girl. We wore all these extremely expensive clothes and walked up a dark set of red stairs. It was really “ARTSY”. I was really nervous but way excited at the same time. I hope I get to do more work in the future, I had tons of fun. Thank You mom, for taking me all the way out in the snow into the middle of Downtown. I know how much you don’t like driving there. Well, I hope you like the pictures. They are sending me the DVD of the finished product and maybe I can post some of it on here when I get it.

Hair. After getting up early so my mom could straighten my hair, they ended up just putting it up anyway. Oh well.
Make-up. They wanted me to have these really dark eyebrows. Don't ask me why.
This was a really great dress and it only cost $290.00 but check out the necklace. It retails at $800.00. My mom was having a fit the whole time I had it on. She was afraid I was going to break it and we would have to pay for it. :)
I feel like I look like a boy in this outfit.
Here's my mom waiting in the wings, trying not to be in the way.
This outfit I would actually wear....if only I had an extra $500.00 to spare. The jeans alone were $170.00. but they were so cute.
This was the grand finale outfit. I only had a tank top and shear tights under this cape and I was afraid the whole time it would fly open and every one would see my undies.
