Have you ever been on a photoshoot?

I've been on a fotoshoot once in my life with a hobby photographer who was making a series of photos that would be on display in a museum and his topic was the different gothic scenes in Holland. How did I get this job? He merely walked into me on a festival with the music I like and I was all dressed up and he liked the way I looked and gave me his card and e-mail address. You allways hear it works this way and as I found it for me it did so too. Off course I was flattered but I'm not going to take any risk or take things for granted so I said to him he could come to my home and we would take it from there. So we did and he was very nice and professional and my parents were right there. If someone has good intensions they won't mind extra public. We did a lot of great pics also outside and in an old burrow in Leiden (I hope I spelled it right, it's a round wall in which soldiers would sit to shoot tresspassers from a safe place?). It's very old and pretty. I can only include one photo at once but I can add more if you would like to see and dicsuss them. I'm not a professional model but had a lot of fun dressing up and getting some good quality photo's taken by someone who knows his filters and has a very good camera. So tell me your story, have you ever modeled?

Hi Cyberfluff won't be able to see pic until I have posted as postinf from email but will comment after. I have never had a photo shoot of myself but both my girls were models when younger so have been witness to many, these photos are all proper photos as before the digital camera aga and I have no scanner so can't upload. They were always great fun to attend but also very hard work and I stopped it as they got older because I didn't want their school work to be affected. Both have been offered contracts since but are simply not interested and the choice is theirs. One daughter is on TV most days here in the UK but isn't a celeb or anything as is so blase about it. Both are far more interested in other things. Right I am waffling now so off to take a look at your pic. Ellie :D

Cyberflufs photoshoot - I thought getting on top of a pile of sand with mega platforms when you have a balance impairment is hard... well think again hun, there's also a way down. *Ugh*.
Nice thing about this photo is that I'm wearing a top I made myself and I'm very proud of that [em]happy[/em].
I'm not sure what happened to the photograph so I will be adding it below. Thank you so much for making such a long and descriptive response. Nice to hear your girls did modeling, and good to hear they can make their own way around society and choose what they want to do. I wouldn't want a contract either at the time being I'm so busy in school. I'm not sure what I would do if I was offered one but I'm too tiny and I guess not skinny enough either so no need to worry about getting a contract and having to turn it down[em]wink/em].
