In a world where children and teenagers were molded to believe subjects such as algebra and chemistry were pre-requisites to \"getting a successful job\", I always felt as though that lifestyle just wasn\'t for me. Choosing the right college and a career I was passionate about at such a young age felt incredibly overwhelming. I didn\'t WANT to do what everyone else was doing. I didn\'t WANT to have to choose a career that would dictate what I did for the rest of my life because that\'s what I was \"supposed\" to do. It wasn\'t until a few years ago after working retail and desk jobs that I had my \"A-HA!\" moment. I\'m an artist! I like to be creative! I wanted to express my fashion sense, sing, dance....anything but be stuck behind a desk for 8 hours a day with stacks of paperwork or succumbing to the corporate pressures of working in sales. Back in 2013 I visited a career counselor, desperate to get some answers as to what I wanted to do with my life. I took quite a long test that asked me all sorts of questions about myself and my personality. That day I was told to start a fashion blog. I shared my results with my husband and with his support we purchased our first professional camera and started doing photo shoots for my website that I had decided to name Fashion Swain, because fashion \"seduced me\". I enjoyed writing and sharing my latest outfits that I had styled. Partnering with brands was fun too, however, throughout the next few years, I noticed how much I loved being in front of the camera and modeling my latest trendy getup. I began to gravitate toward modeling and this past winter I was extremely blessed in meeting Monica Hahn of Monica Hahn Photography. When I met Monica, I had arrived at her studio to collaborate and do some headshots. I was absolutely taken by her amazing energy. She was so positive and upbeat...and a real pro at that! Her studio provided everything to be utilized in photography, not to mention her magazine-esque high quality photos. I knew when I left that shoot I would be back. And I was. I booked my first boudoir shoot with her to kick off my professional portfolio, and it was an experience that I will never forget. We worked so great together! I FELT like a model! This is how loving what you do is supposed to feel like! I finally figured it out! If you take a few moments to browse you can see how much it radiates in my portfolio. As I engage with more photographers I\'m taking away as much as I can learn from each session and utilize any new knowledge toward my next shoot. I\'m looking forward to my work being published for the first time this October! ​ I\'m looking forward to learning as much as I can and evolving in the world of modeling. This new chapter in my life is all about harnassing the power of my womanhood and celebrating who I am! I would love to book many opportunities and live my dream as a model.
