California Love

So I'm back in Miami after a killer shoot in Cali. I was fortunate enough to shoot with Nicolaas de Bruin & Melita, Lady Sweet Face Photography and Eric Haywood Photography. Man, I had a blast with all three AND their make up artist, What's more important is that I learned a lot. Not just about modeling but about myself. I like modeling. Don't mistake what I'm saying here, I'm just so used to focusing on Acting that I never really gave modeling a full chance. I did a self analysis of my "look" and my height figured I'd probably suck at it and didn't focus the energy into it. Oh but I had so much fun! And more importantly, I liked the glamour work that I did. Commercial work comes easy for me. I'm always laughing and moving around and that makes it an easy capture for me. But glamour? Ahhhh that's a whole different ball game. No smiles just seduction. I don't think I've ever gone 3 hours with out smiling (unless I was sleeping or attending a funeral). It was hard not to "think" of poses and just move.... Nicolaas was great, being the former international model that he is, he was more than willing to help me out on posing. He also let me know which poses sucked ass big time all while making me laugh. Could this be the start of a new venture for me? Acting is my one true love but I kinda feel like I wanna explore this new artistic outlet. This comes as no surprise to me, however. Even in acting, I always go after the non characteristic roles. The bitch, the psycho, the seductress, the assassin, but never the girl next door role that would easily fit me. I got a kick out of doing the seductive shot. One thing is for sure: I'd better step my game up. Not everyone will be as nice as Nicolaas. I've got a long way to go before anyone would mistake me for "sexy", lol.

I'M BACK, I'M BACK, I'M BACK!

Welcome to the Dark Side- Where the Wild Things are

Who could have ever imagined that this pic would be funnier today, than it was when it was taken over a year ago.... "Lucy, ju got some 'splaining to do....."

A Life Less Ordinary.....

What is it about the little girl in this picture? Why couldn't she just be satisfied with being a doctor or a lawyer or a receptionist? Find out later, full story coming soon.....

And so it begins.......

Hi. I don't know what I'm doing here but hopefully I'll figure it out on the way. I am, for all intents and purposes, an actress. I've been wanting to start a blog since the new year as it marks so many changes in my life. I'm hoping this blog will do a few things. One, I want to use it to chart my successes and failures. I want to be able to look at everything I do from now on and figure out how I can improve. Two, I'm hoping it can be therapeutic in a sense. I don't have many people to talk to about my goal and aspirations and I figure I'm boring the shit of out the few supporters that I do have. And finally, Three, I'm hoping YOU, the reader, will read my blogs and also provide feedback on what I may be doing wrong and how I can improve. This should be interesting to read, lol, I'll try to keep the sob stories and rants about me not getting picked of a role to a minimum.

In any event, before this gets too long and it starts to read like a boring ass acceptance speech from the Oscars, I'll end it now. I just want to thank you so much for taking the time to read this. Hopefully, you'll become on of my supporters and be there with me when times are good and also to put my ass in my place when I'm dead ass wrong. That's what friends are for, right?

So are you ready? Let's go!
