FORD Models

So....
I went to see FORD and Wilhelmina modeling agencies on Tuesday. Wilhelmina was first and it was to be seen for their Promo and Runway board. I wasn't as enthusiastic about that board as opposed to a print board but I was enthusiastic about Wilhelmina. So, I went and spoke to one of the agents, who looked at my book, took my information, and took some snap shots. I felt like it went fine but wasn't too excited about it.
When I left Wilhelmina I figured I would check and see if I could get in to be seen at FORD. So I called the agent whom I'd been emailing and said I was in the neighborhood and if he could see me. He agreed and I met with him. He was very friendly and seemed to like my book! He brought it in the back (they leave you in this central waiting room while they decide your fate out of site in mysterious places at that only the prettiest people can go). Soon after another agent came out to speak with me and he also seemed to like my book and he gave me information to fill out... contact info, measurements, etc. Then I met with a THIRD agent for more of the same. They took some snap shots and commented that the snap shots were good and that they would let me know.
Well, on Wednesday I emailed them a thank you note and they responded with an offer to sign with them!!! Now I'm scrambling to get my portfolio files to them. They are going to put me on their site and I get a FORD book and comp card!
I'm very very excited... now let's hope that I get all kinds of amazing work through them!!

As if in response to my excitement I went into work at the hospital that night... which is a good thing. Like I say, it keeps me grounded. So, last night I worked on the Burn Unit... it's like the universe was working to keep me humble... which I'm very happy about. I usually hate that unit but I had really great patients and it was really not bad. Maybe I'm just getting used to it. The patients expressed gratitude for the care I offered them which makes me feel good... that maybe I do make a difference to someone. (Not to get all hippy dippy though)

This pic is one of my main headshots... hope you like it. I'll add more photos over time... so stay tuned. ;)
