Inspiration!

After being in bed ill for two weeks, Im feeling extrememly INSPIRED! I have sat for days on end and thought up what could be my 'next look' in my portfolio and have came up with page fulls, so watch this space in the next few weeks!

I usually get extremely inspired by vogue images and often want to re-create a certain image but with different elements and a different edge to the picture and obviously create some eye- grabbing work whilst im at it! Below is one im DYING to re-create and try with an edge!





So apart from that, I have some EXTREMELY exciting projects coming up with some amazing photographers and make up artists! I also have some BIG castings coming up over the winter period, just hope im actually better so I can make them! Also have the mission to re-vamp my full portfolio again, so that should be fun, fun, fun!

General about modelling!

Throughout my time within the fashion industry I have had many experiences and learned what it takes to be top-standards.. I have had the pleasure of walking the catwalk with some AMAZING models which I aspire to be like when im older! I have had the greatest pleasure of working with some brilliant photographer's such as Stuart Campbell, Adam Coats, Kristen Mitchell and many more, I have also had the chance to work with EXTREMELY talented make up artists such as Ashley Thomson, Jacqui Connor and lot's of other's!

Trying to break into the industry at 16 was certainly a VERY hard thing to do, I have had such brilliant support from family and friends that it made the battle seem a little more copable! Modelling is seen as a very glamourous thing to do, but believe me sometimes it is very much the opposite- I was doing a shoot in a snow blizzard at the start of the my modelling stage and I had to be in the snow with NO jacket or blanket and only had a simple dress and boots on...BRRRRRRRRRR! The pics turned out AWESOME however and one even ended up on the massive TV screen above Grand Central Train Station in Glasgow!

Although the modelling part of my life is usually a little on the crazy side, I seriously LOVE it and wouldn't stop for the world! I have met so many talented individuals within my time modelling and hope to keep getting the pleasure of working with them! Being only 18 gives me the time factor to progress at a nice rate, YETTTT I still have my sights set high and have extremely large ambitions that many would find crazy but in the words of Beiber "NEVER SAY NEVER" ahaha!

First Blog

Well guys this is my very FIRST one of these, so kind of stuck with what to write!

Guess i'll start of with telling about the MODELLING PART of my life... I've been in the modelling circuit for a year and eight months now, It all started in 2010 when I was signed by Superior Model Management a the age of sixteen, a week after I was EXREMELY blessed as I made the 'MISS SCOTLAND SHORTLIST' and recieved a lof of publicity including national papers such as;

The Daily Record, The Daily Times, and The Daily Mail.

Since last March I have made an extreme progress within my modelling career by being in Runway shows such as; House of Fraser Autumn/Winter Collection, GSA, CFS, Inspire the Attire, and many other and have had the chance to wear some STUNNING clothes for designers such as Vivienne Westwood, Dior, Biba, Fendi and many more.

 I have also had the greatest pleasure working with so many talented people within the industry! Ive worked with lots of photographers, make up artists, hair stylists, and stylists and picked up different things from every single shoot I've done due to trying to make myself a better model! The picture below is one of my favourite shoots to date with a MASSIVE up and coming photographer by the name of ADAM COATS, this boy is definetily going places very soon with his work!
