What a Day and Some Bohemian Inspiration

So today was eventful to say the least. I woke up at 7 am as per usual in a hospital, but in such a haze that I spent the entire morning eyes half closed and my speech slurring. It was like I was still asleep. Before noon I had two visitors: my psychiatrist and my psychiatric nurse. So I spent most of my time slurring about my feelings and about how my medication is affecting me, which probably did not seem very nice to either visitor. They both mentioned my sleepiness quite a few times.

At noon, when all the doctors had come and gone (I forgot to ask about a days worth of leave from hospital just to see my dog, but I'll try and remember that tomorrow...), I decided I really needed some more sleep, so I basically passed out on my bed, whilst checking some lovely dresses on Backstreet and woke up in another daze when my photographer Jari B Miettinen came in to the room and with a loud voice said "Hello Frankie". I mean I knew he was coming, I just didn't think I'd sleep for two whole hours then.

So the idea was that with Jari we'd take a good long photoshoot in the hospital, show some of the feelings that come out when staying in a hospital and such. And it was amazing, amazing I tell you, but the funniest part was that by the last set of photos, the hospital priest came in ('cause she had promised to come that day) and stayed watching us do the last set. I think she was quite intrigued by what we were doing, since the last set was quite sinister and brought up a lot of feelings in me.

Anyway, we came up to eight different sets, which I'm going to share to you all in eight different posts, so be on the lookout for them! I seriously mean eight (8) different posts for these photos from this photoshoot, because there was just that much material to work with!
I really hope you'll like them and comment, constructive criticism is always welcome, especially with a  amateur model like me!
So good night everyone and you'll get the first set tomorrow!

Second Photoshoot with Timo Otamo 19.2.2014

This one was a bit more dearing than the last one, so I won't show you all the photos, just a few of the more covered up ones.

What do you guys think?

How I got into Modelling

First of all I read what miss Mortianna said on her blog Live fast, die young, leave a good looking corpse on her journey into modelling. She had great advice there so you should all check it out!

What I did was first get into a Facebook group about TFCD photography, which basically means that both the photographer and the model own the photos but neither is allowed to make money with them. The group I joined is for Finland and rather well controlled, so I felt safe with meeting with the photographers, though I am a young woman and I've only been in photoshoots with older men. It can be a bit awkward if you're not used to that sort of thing. Also since my photoshoots have been rather daring to say the least, it's been something I've even had to get used to, because I'm not quite that daring in real life. There's the model me and the real me.

Second I posted my information on the site and got a private message from one photographer. After the first shoot I created my own modelling folder into the group and added the photos there, after that I have gotten private messages from two other photographers. I've now done three photoshoots and am hoping for a fourth and umpteenth one in the future! Because modelling is just so much fun!

The ideas for photoshoots have mostly come from the model, me, but the photoshoot itself goes depending on the photographer either to their ideas or my ideas, but mostly it's a collaboration of ideas and creativity to create something beautiful as the outcome. You should always listen to the photographers directions because they know how it looks on camera, and you should never get yourself into a position your not comfortable with - so if the ideas are too out there for you, say something because you're not allowed to be forced into anything.

It's also really really important that you check the photographer out beforehand - you check that they have a portfolio, you check their activities, you google their name, everything, because you do not want to end up with some pervy idiot in a warehouse!


Päädyin mallinhommiin miss Mortiannan ideoinnin jälkeen ja liityin lopulta Facebookissa ryhmään, joka hoitaa TFCD-kuvauksia, joissa sekä mallilla että kuvaajalla on oikeudet kuviin, mutta kuvilla ei saa tehdä rahaa.
Kirjoitin tietoni ylös mallikansioon ja sain heti yhteydenoton kuvaajalta. En tuntenut häntä enkä myöhempiä kuvaajia aikaisemmin, mutta se ei minua haitannut, sillä kun katsoin heidän portfolionsa ja aktiviteettinsä ryhmässä uskaltauduin heidän seuraansa. Muista aina tarkistaa kuvaajan tiedot, ettet joudu minnekään jonkin kriipin idiootin kanssa! 
Ideat kuviin tulivat niin minulta kuin valokuvaajaltakin ja näin se myös kuvauksessa tapahtuu, tietenkin riippuen kuvaajasta ja aiheesta, mutta kaikkea saa ehdottaa ja katsoa miten käy!

Jos on jotain kysyttävää vielä, kysy ihmeessä, vastaan mielelläni!
If you have any more question I'd love to answer!

I just found this gorgeous young lady while browsing through Tumblr. She's a real young beauty and modelling for the likes of Christian Dior etc.
She's listed under several of the biggest model agencies in the world, she's a real multitalent.

Now for some green hair...again

I decided that my hair crisis had to end, so I just dyed my hair green without first turning everything white (which I will still do, but after I get bored with the green). Yes, I know, what horrid first world problems.

But yes, tonight, hopefully, I will be happily reunited with a bunch of ollldd school people, so we'll see how that goes, and hopefully there will be some that I actually know, instead of just a huge number of weirdos that know each other but not me. Oh well, can't be that difficult to get acquainted...as if.

So now for some inspiration on what my hair colour looks like at the moment, just not photos of me...yet:

My Favourite Supermodel of the Moment: Cara Delevingne

She's the craziest, prettiest, weirdest and best out there. And that's why I love her. She's so young and so awesome still, and she knows how not to give a fuck.
