Hey girls, and welcome to the first challenge or cycle 6! I can't believe that this is the sixth season I have hosted of this! Well without further ado, let's get this show on the road!
:: PHOTOSHOOT THEME ::
For your first photoshoot, I would like you to submit a HIGH FASHION photo which resembles you as a model. I would like each of you to choose a work which really resembles YOU and pick a photo which you feels best resembles yourself, as after all, in modelling you ARE selling yourself. As always, no ANTM photos or runway shots - and they must be of females!
If you are struggling with finding a photo feel free to ask myself, Lily or Suzanna for some help / advice as we would be more than welcome to lend a helping hand.
:: HINTS & TIPS ::
If you are struggling to find a good photo, try searching for vogue spreads or magazines. Or (I find this the best way) searching for models like:
~ Sonny Zhou
~ Jourdan Dunn
~ Jessica Stam
~ Sasha Pivovarova
~ Miranda Kerr
~ Liya Kebede
~ Lara Stone
~ Tanya Dziahileva
~ Naomi Campbell
~ Gemma Ward
~ Du Juan
~ Lily Cole
~ Gisele Bundchen
~ etc....
:: CHALLENGE ::
Well, your challenge is kind of linked in with your photo shoot theme. I want you to write a paragraph about the word you have been chosen and why it best resembles you (The Longer the paragraph the better). The girl who is the best will receive a special prize - The chance to know the theme for the next challenge and get a head start at looking for photos!
My word that would describe me would be unique. I like taking risk and not taking the safe route. I feel like this picture with the pose and the surrounding is unique. The pose isn't your typical pose it's different almost like a dance. I love the desert background. It gives the photo more of a dramatic effect and it looks like she's in control of the world.
Model: Lily Donaldson
Spread: Vogue Japan November 2008

-Expressive would the word best to describe this picture, and me as a model. The pose and her face are powerful and elite, and i love the colors and patterns, its unique, funky and fresh. More importantly, as a model this kind of picture is what I would imagine me doing. Something colorful, bright, vivid, powerful, new and fun. Her clothes, patterns, colors, are all risky, bold, original and bright. I chose this picture after looking for quite a while, because I feel it most resembles me, and isnt just a pretty picture.
My shot embodies "gracefulness". I think as a model being fluid and graceful in front of the camera is so important, because the camera knows when you don't know what you're doing. My ability to flow smoothly on set results in stunning, artistic photographs.
This young lady represents me best I think. Cute, Fun and sexy! Can be serious when needed. Very intelligent and comfortable in front of the camera. Knows what to do and when to do it.
Oh crap I didn't see the challenge part! I chose "Glamorous". I am never without glamour, be it in a casting, photo, or on the runway. As a model, I always exude elegance, expensive, and sex on set. I know how to move my body, angle my face, and produce a beautiful picture.
The one word that would describe me would be Caring.I am very sweet & nice and keep to myself most of the time.I love to give then receive because I think it makes you better and a happier person when you give something.I am just an all around nice and sensitive girl
I chose this photo because it reflects the positive vibrations that i am trying to relay to the world. i have good vibrance within this photo. this shows my personality fun, vibrant, bold but a little hint of darkness (don't mess with me) i am easy to work with and alwaysss deliver!
~ My word is "Discreet" ... i would say i am quiet and feel comfortable hiding in the background except when it comes to modeling, i forget all sense of self conciousness and really shine because i'm doing what i love :) i come across as striking and strong through my poses, to show, i can be the powerful woman i asipre to be.
