Always the Bridesmaid, Never The Bride...


When my phone rang and it was Sherry Scheline, founder of Idaho Wedding Event Magazine "IDoWED" on the line asking if I would walk in her upcoming Bells and Beaux Wedding Show at the Chateau des Fleurs (owned by the founder of Camille Beckman), I couldn't say no. Seriously, if you knew my long time friend Sherry, you would totally understand. 

I mentioned to a local Make Up Artist (I live in the Los Angeles Area) after the phone conversation that I would be flying to Boise, Idaho to participate in the upcoming event, her first response was "you're too short for runway". I decided to do it anyway (though she should have added that I was "too old for runway" as well, in my opinion).

At 5'3", with a little more curve then a "traditional fashion model" and a few more wrinkles (okay, let's just call it as is actually is - A LOT more wrinkles) than the the other models who towered over me with their youth, beauty and long legs, I did my very best to represent what it is to be a bride, bridesmaid, wedding guest, newlywed on her honeymoon, etc.

No one preps you for just how stressful walking a runway can be. With high heels and dresses a bit too long for my little legs, I did my best not to trip as I walked past people watching from the sides as they made comments and took pictures. 

When the event commenced, I was back in my Champagne Campaign T-shirt, waiting in line for my over due glass of Rose, a much needed stress reliever after what I just had accomplished (check Runway Model off my bucket list). As I was taking my first sip from my fluted glass, two ladies approached me and said that they loved how much "sass" I had on the runway. Wow! Sass? I had tried so hard to be as pulled together and professional as possible while strutting in frocks from Something Old, Something New, Shift Boutique and Dress And Charm, but apparently, my personality showed through. I guess in life, the best way to be is to be yourself, and those that appreciate will let you know it!

I doubt I will ever be asked again to walk on another runway, but at least I didn't pass on this opportunity, and even if I never get married in "real life" - at least I have these wonderful images taken on film (not digital) by Ben+Joella prior to my runway debut.

A NOTE TO ME IN 2017

2016 was the year that I decided...

"...to embrace all possibilities and to do what makes me happy, that if I ask for success and abundance, I have to work as hard as needed to make sure that the opportunities that are given to me are completed at well over 100% of my abilities. There is no "small" anything - everything that I do, I DO - as there is no try. 2015 was rewarding (see A Note To Me in 2016) and 2016 was even more so. I look forward to the future and what 2017 will bring. Happy New Year." 

2016 brought many new people into my life and presented me with...

My dream to TRAVEL to another country for work. Australia was the FIRST stamp in my passport! 

Ability to bring new characters to life in feature film - including my techno roller girl, "Rainbow" in Sex.Sound.Silence and my rapper persona, "Ventique" in Gradation.


2016 also allowed me another year...

...as Booking Officer at Stuart Rogers Studios in North Hollywood, CA where I study acting under the talented Michael B. Silver, Timothy Carhart, and studio head Stuart Rogers. 

2016 was the first year that... 

Featured in two pages of Town & Country, Shape and SELF Magazines. 


Booked my first NATIONAL COMMERCIAL.

Flew to New York City to speak on a panel with Khloe Kardashian for the Launch of the Live Chin Up campaign for Kybella® (Allergan, PLC).

Interviewed for Cosmopolitan Magazine by Loni Venti. 

Spoke at the American Academy of Dermatology in Washington D.C.


HAPPY NEW YEAR!
