My Modeling Story and Ultimate Dream

Taking the Leap:
My first actual big photo shoot that I had was back in 2011 with Sharon Arnoldi Photography and let me tell you, I've became a totally different person after this shoot. I began to accept myself for who I am, love myself and tell myself that I'm beautiful.

This particular shoot, sparked my interest even more, raised my self esteem and began to really get into model for fun. 

DivineSkye Photography: 
I'm sure you've seen all my photo credits from DivineSkye Photography and after my very first photo shoot with Megan Lunsford (the owner) I had a turning point in my "career" as a model. After our first shoot, I knew that modeling as a career was my ultimate dream!

Seriously, as soon as I saw these pictures, I was incredibly proud of myself for making the move to ask Megan if I could model for her and I couldn't thank her enough!


My Ultimate Dream:
I'm not going to lie, to be a model as my career is my biggest dream. Modeling, is one of the most amazing feelings ever. To be in front of a camera, wearing a cute outfit, having your make up and hair done is literally what makes me the happiest.
Ever since I can remember, I always loved being in front of a camera. My Mom took so many pictures of me and did pretty much on a daily basis to document my life. I loved posing, looking cute and when the film was developed and seeing pictures of me is one of my fondest memories. 
My ultimate and hands down the biggest dream of mine is to model for Vans, Pacsun and any big brand! Since I've been working for Vans, there are always gigantic new canvases of girls modeling the collection for the season and that's ultimately what I want in life. I want to be known as a Vans Girl and be on a canvas or magazine to see I've caught my dream. If I could do that for any brand, I'd be honored and even more honored if it was for Vans because I do work for them and seeing my face in Pacsun campaign or anything like that would be so awesome. Some day, I will achieve my dream. 

XOXO

Photo shoot with Divineskye Photography :)


Photo Credit thanks to Divineskye Photography
Photographer: Megan Lunsford

Let's start off with, I've been working on this for the past couple days! Sorry for being MIA but, this picture is so worth it, right?! Right ;)

So, modeling is literally one of my all time favorite things to do. It relaxes me and I love everything about it, maybe because I'm a tad bit narcissistic. To me, modeling is my ability to express myself in pictures and showing that yeah, I might be little but that's not going to stop me from pursuing my dreams. 

I seriously love that Megan the photographer from Divineskye Photography and I work so well together and have a lot of fun! I've had shoots where the photographer doesn't really get me and my personality and isn't really clear on a vision or direction which doesn't help me as the model know what I need to do, how I need to pose, what I need to do with my face, etc. With Megan, it's like magic and we get so many "money shots" as I call them, because she has a very creative outlook and a vision that I understand and know what I need to do, to work it! 

Since this is a fashion and beauty blog, let me tell you about what I'm wearing! For this shoot, we really went for a wintery kind of direction since it is winter out here in Colorado! So, I took inspiration from New York winter fashion with an edgy kind of vibe. I absolutely LOVE leopard print, I always have and always will! Which is why these Sk8Hi Wedges from Vans made me base an outfit around them! They're such a bold and different shoe which is why I wore them again for this shoot! 
Vans is kind of a theme in my wardrobe since I do work for them and their clothes really reflect me as a person! Classic, different, edgy, a little eclectic and definitely trendy! I can't even tell you how much I love the brand and especially this dress I'm wearing by them! Now, we got this during back to school season and I'm still wearing it, even though it's the middle of winter! I love the lace detail in this dress and the modest neckline which gives the look such a feminie feel to this overall photo shoot. Winter isn't really on my side when it comes to wanting to wear pieces that I love and that's why I paired it with these black pantyhose with silver glitter detail on the side from Forever 21 and this leopard studded cardigan from Pacsun! If I didn't have these pieces to keep me warm, I would have literally died!
I mean come on...this bunny hat pulls this entire outfit together!! So this is Megan's bunny ear hat and it's literally the softest thing I've EVER put onto my head and I love how much more Asian it makes me look! The more Asian I look, the better!

For my makeup, I kept it very simple, neutral and pretty. I felt like since my outfit was so bold, I really needed to keep my face simple so it wouldn't look so overwhelming and I'm so happy I kept it neutral! All I did was my foundation, contoured my face a little heavier as normal since I was being photographed, swiped a champagne color all over my lid, a black winged eyeliner, a nude lip with a nude lipgloss, mascara and a pair of lashes! 

I'll be back on daily with new content!
XOXO
