Modeling: Off to photoshoot before pictures



I'm loving my new hair which is slighlty uneven because I did it myself and I got a little anxious with the scissors.

Here's some photos I took before I left for my shoot earlier today. I love my new hair cut and my earrings that I made a few days ago.

Enjoy

Alternative Modeling; Alternative Magazines TAMD

Okay so I just went a a facebook group called TAMD a private modeling group for alternative models all over the world. I haven't read all of these magazines but if you are interested in reading more alternative magazines, learning more about the subculture, lifestyle, arts, fashion, models, designers, photographers, etc then here's an excellent source by Ashley and a few others over at TAMD
 
Here's  The Alternative Modeling Directory facebook page. So if you are interested in learning more about alternative styles, modeling, etc from people in the industry world wide this page is highly recommended. Ashley is very supportive all of the models and affiliates on the page and will promote your pictures, website, blog, twitter, etc if you ask her.

Gothic Beauty Magazine
This the first Goth/alternative magazine I'd ever read I found it at Hot Topic when I went to boarding school in wisconsin. I still love it and read it when I find it at Barnes and Nobles.

Gorgeous Freaks Magazine
I found Gorgeous freaks models on facebook through The Alternative Modeling Directory and submitted pictures to an album there. I was more than excited when Naty and Yaz decided to make a magazine featuring alt models, musicians, and fashion.

And so much more
These are the magazines that I've read so far when I find some more I'll be sure to check them out and see about submitting to them.

I'd like to do more alternative shoots but they are not in budget right now. I love the shoots I do in fashion and art, but Alternative fashion will always be my favorite. It's what inspired me to start modeling in the first place. If any photographers, MUAH's, artist, or designers in the Chicago area would like to work with me and discuss shoots with similar themes please email me at saphirerainforest@gmail.com for rates and booking information. Rates are affordable just ask and if you have a good concept and good work I don't mind shooting tf as long as it's within budget as far as transportation, props, outfits, etc goes.

Autumn: Makeup

So fall has rolled again this time of year is more than just holidays and cold weather. It's also  Birthday month for my family. September is not only the month of my birthday, the birthdays of most of my close family. Then October and November.

So I'd like to change up my makeup routine a little bit to fit the season.
Here's a few looks I'd like to experiment.

Okay so most of these looks won't match my skin tone per say but I can experiment and come up with looks inspired by these. As i get older I mover and more away from dark heavy makeup because I want to have a smoky eye without it being all black. I like color variations. I think light colors mixed with a hint of dark colors still portrays my dark style but more flattering to my skin tone.

White, black, and grey is a good combination for me because it's not just all black heavy eyeliner. It's three colors blended to create a look. Yet still fits my style. This look can be kind of tricky sometimes and takes practice to become even and flatterings. It's always good to use a primer other than foundation with all looks to make it last longer. If you do not have a primer I suggest making one from honey and moisterizer. It's cheaper and better for your skin.

Always face your face thoroughly before applying makeup. It helps it to stay on longer, prevent breakouts, and makeup meltdowns.

Remember there's always youtube tutorials to help you to acheive the looks you want with steps to follow and things you may want to add to your makeup collection to complete these looks properly.

Goth Swim Wear

I know it's a common fashion problem within the Goth community and I've seen a few bloggers with similar post so I'm going to post images from etsy and other sites of swim wear that I'd.

You can always look for vintage or retro swimsuits online or in any secondhand shop.

Some designers let you customize your own swim wear. I hope this post is helpful for those still looking for something that fits your taste and comfort.

Onething I like to look for in swim suits is
*Color - preferably black
*Comfort- No ridding up  or heavy knots at the back. No wardrobe malfunctions. I like to make sure that all of my clothes especially bikini's, strapless shirts, halters, etc are what I'd like to call Jump proof. Try it on as securely as possible and jump up and down a few times and make sure nothing falls, brakes, snaps, or anything.
* Coverage- I prefer shorts for bottoms as apposed to bikini bottoms because I don't want my butt to hang out fro the sides. I feel as if I'm wearing underwear. Shorts are more secure, less likely to ride up and being that the are not supported by strings or hooks at the sides it's less likely to have any wardrobe malfunctions.
*As for tops I'd like them to cover as much of my chest as possible and have all of the support I can get.
