photography | The Photo Studio Australia<br />

As well as music, modelling has recently become a big<br />

part of my life. This all started when I entered The Photo<br />

Studio Australia’s model search where the winner was<br />

offered a free professional portfolio shoot valued at<br />

$5000. I was beyond excited when I received the call<br />

to tell me I had actually won this amazing opportunity.<br />

I really enjoyed choosing and styling my outfits during<br />

the weeks before the shoot and I was dying to get into<br />

the studio. On the day of the shoot I was very nervous<br />

but once it had started, modelling felt so natural to me<br />

and I had so much fun. After this shoot experience I<br />

knew I wanted to continue my passion for modelling. I<br />

started posting the photos from the shoot and finding<br />

every modelling opportunity I could.<br />

One of these opportunities was the Country Girl<br />

Management event which I was selected to participate<br />

in. During this event I was taught valuable lessons<br />

about the modelling industry and how to be my most<br />

confident self. Soon enough I was doing many shoots<br />

with local photographers and even making some<br />

income from it.<br />

I am beyond thankful for the opportunity that I<br />

received from the Photo Studio Australia because they<br />

helped me find my love for modelling as well as helped<br />

me get to where I am now.<br />
