Where's the memo?

A few days ago, our headnurse left us instructions not to wear jeans, shirts, shorts and sleeveless blouses when going to work; in the boss words, were not allowed to wear anything indecent. Alas, another reason to dress up; so heres what I wore today:

loose vintage tee- jewels, cardigan- Landmark, culottes- thrifted, weave belt- Landmark, espadrilles-greenhills

making a model setcard

My photogenic approached me yesterday if I could help her with her model set card. A model set card is given to potential agents or companies that a model would want to model for. It should have the model's measurements, height, weight shoe and dress size and other important information (like your contact details) that would be pertinent for the agent. Photos should show the versatility of the model and should have both whole body and beauty shots; both with minimal make up and also can have avant garde make up. Photos should have high resolution to be appreciated; and then collated in a fashion that is clean and professional.

I'd like to share to you a little freebie for both models and photographers who wants to easily create a professional looking set card.

Here's the finished product.

Photographing Love: A natural model

After I got my second hand camera, I was so trigger happy that I wanted to shoot anything just to practice my photography. I then had an idea to update my co-workers' portraits and in turn help me learn more about photography, and of course having a photo shoot with them was both fun and rewarding, even though I did not want to get paid for it.

Actually before shooting Mommy Khel, I shot Love's photos first. And it was definitely hassle-free! She was lucky to have a photographer brother so she had a lot of experience projecting in front of the camera, so after our duty we had a mini photo shoot. Here are some of my favorite shots:
Love poses effortlessly, I love it!

LATE POST: After our mini photoshoot at the clinic, my co- workers and I decided to go to our building's rooftop and see the view from above. We also took some wacky pictures and went home. Of course aesthetics nurses should get some early beauty sleep!
