Hello! Well, last weekend I shot with Claudia and Nissa again, continuing on with our painting on doors project. The results are adorable! I truly love the photos ... I'm keeping my fingers crossed ford will use them in my portfolio. To simply put it, I feel like they are so pretty and natural, but also sweet and silly like me. Here is the final selection:

Claudia was also sweet enough to send me some possible portfolio usable shots from the shoot we did a few months back ...


Things have been painfully slow lately. Although I've been keeping myself busy with weekly test shoots, vamping my book up completely, it's hurting here too. There have barely been any castings since I returned from Venezuela. I got the callback on a University of Phoenix commercial last week but just ended up getting a role as an extra. Usually I would not have accepted extra work, but something is better than nothing at this point. Today we shot the commercial and it was a painfully long day of pretty much no work involved except waiting around and hitting a mark. Of course, that was to be expected. I'm lucky to have had the opportunity, but I know in the end extra work doesn't really matter on your resume, and I hope I never have to do it again to be honest. I hate to sound "that way" but it's just the truth ... I'm paying too much money for an acting degree, and have enough experience that I feel I deserve to set a certain standard for myself.
I'm off to ice my swollen feet. Love to all.
