I'm a photographer, therefore I want pretty models. If you're ugly, then just GTFO.
And I do a bit of modeling on the side. ;3
But I'd never do runway modeling or anything like that. I hate it.

how do you kill a battery that's already dead?

Most models are ugly.

Agreed! That was perfect! biggrin

:D
i nailed it in one shot! awesome!

Yes! That's what i think happens sometimes you know? Like people hear "you'll never make it." or they get rejected by a client a lot and then they start to think negatively about themselves and forget that the industry they are in involves a lot of rejection. You just have to stay strong! You said it perfect! biggrin DDDDD

yeah, you've just got to remember that you are not what other people think of you, you are who you were before your opinions, and you do not depend on who someone says you are.
you said you wanted to be a model? how's that going?

Exactly! Yeah, it's actually going well. I have interest so i'm trying to keep that connection going you know?

Mmhmm, yeah. it's great you're so passionate in it. i have a lot of diverse interests but i'm also very lazy by nature, which screws things up for me a lot. i'm trying to change my ways, though. but i'm glad to hear you're working towards something you really like. (:

Thank you so much! Your words mean more than you think! Yeah, i am a lazy person as well at times, but it's just when you really want to do something you do it you know? I haven't booked any jobs yet, but your still working by watching what you eat and stuff you know? It's not really work though, the whole process is fun for me because i know i'm doing what i love or helping myself be better at doing what i love. You should just tell yourself how you really want to do it, and just get up and do it you know? Like just push away all that "i don't feel like getting up right now." feelings and get up and start.

I've been told I should model by quite a large number of people.
Waaay too short though. emo
But to be a high fashion model isn't something you can just wake up and do.
You gotta watch what you eat, and keep your body toned, and crap.

Yup. It's hard work!

It looks so fun though. C:

it is fun, but behind the scenes can be the total opposite.

[Moonbeam Hangover]

In my eyes, there are many different types of pretty. A lot of people tend to associate pretty with the typical popular girl in High school. That's not the only type of beauty. High Fashion models tend to look awkward and different, but they are still pretty. Just in a different way.

Besides, just because you think those people were ugly, doesn't mean they actually were.

Oh, and for those who put down the modeling field. It's hard work. It's not something that stupid girls do to flaunt there looks. It's a real job with a lot of demands, and it takes a hell of a lot of responsibility.

But if you look through all the fashion magazines these days, all the models are ugly.

I think uglerrrs have got more chance than pretty people atm.

I've never wanted to be a model, despite all else, I'm not tall enough lol.

Because that quirky look is interesting to look at and they aren't necessarily ugly, just have a unique face. Plus, there are a lot of different types of models, so it can range!

If you are spending more then 10 minutes putting make-up on, chances are your ugly.

I went to the mall this morning with my friends and there was this mini fashion show thing going on.
I expected there to be really pretty models and stuff, but DAMN there were some ugly ********.

Some kids at my school slack off and stuff because they think they are going to be high fashion models. These kids think they are gods gift to humanity. -_- But they are damn ugly.

Why do ugly people want to be fashion models.

Discuss.

DONT MATTER
IF THEY WANT TO PUBLICLY HUMILIATE THEMSELVES THEN LET EM HAVE AT IT

i'm really very glad that you're so into it all. (:
i know, i know, and i'm working on it. i swear to god i am trying! i, personally, want to be a musician when i'm older, but modeling i think is such an interesting career, i've done some for my photographer friends and everything, and they liked me, but my self esteem in the way i look is nearly nonexistant these days (typical for a teenager, of course), which is the only thing that's truly bringing me down lately.

[Eruuru]

Mmmmm I don't like models. Most of models' magazine are edited on Photoshop or Illustrator... and people want to be like them, but the truth is, some of the models magazine are just like us. sweatdrop

Lolz. Like other people have said in this thread, people can be dicks in the industry. You can walk in for a go see, and the minute you walk in the door the client can be like "thank you." That's it. Go see over. They saw you for five seconds but didn't like your look, so why keep you here to continue any further? For females (maybe even males) some clients who are perverted might try to bargain with the models with things like "if you suck my d**k i'll get you the job." Yeah, it happens. Pressures like these are in the modeling industry, and some other industries i'm sure as well. Also, there is a lot of sex, drugs, and partying in the modeling industry, and that is another aspect in which responsibility comes in. Drugs everyone knows can ruin your life. You can hook up with the wrong person, catch something, or both with sex, and if you have a job to do early in the morning (photo shoots can start REALLY early) and you go out and party then wake up in the morning with a massive hangover and big black circles and bags under your eyes, that's not good. It's not professional and shows your lack of professionalism. It's not as glamourous as it looks as people have stated, but there are upsides to it as well! biggrin
