The beginning of my Modeling Career?


So yesterday the girl who works at the front desk in my building for the management company, Sarah, asked me if I wanted to model for some of their brochures and promotional materials. She made it sound like I’d be in the background with 30 or so people AND told me that free lunch would be provided to those who agreed to model… Free lunch? I’m in. So I agreed. Little did I know that I would be one of 5 people modeling!

I kept thinking that more people would show up, but as we were waiting in the chairs the camera guy started snapping shots of me and the other guy waiting. Then he’d take one of me and the older guy chatting. He just kept on snapping pictures. I began to understand that we were it as far as models went. No one else was coming. I convinced myself that it was ok by reassuring myself that I was getting free lunch for chatting with people – someone just happened to be taking pictures of me at the same time.

I was also sitting next to a large plate of about 2 dozen warm chocolate chip cookies. They were real cookies too – not just fake cookies sitting there to look good. These were steaming hot and the smell was just tantalizing. I finally grabbed a cookie when the “photo shoot” seemed to be nearing an end, but I think the photographer got a couple shots of me munching away. Oh, well. It really does fit me quite well.

This will have been my 3rd time modeling for some type of fee: Bethel University when I was 17, a parking company last year, and the 701 yesterday! Maybe I should put together a portfolio???
