Model Behaviour

I’ll let you in on a little secret- about ten years ago I had it in my head that I’d like to be a model. It seems absurd to me now as I know I have neither the looks or nor personality to make it. Still, when fellow blogger and talented photographer Milly Tillson asked if I would act as a model for one of her university projects it did kind of feel like I was living my dream for a few hours. Milly recently sent me over some of the photos from the day and said I could share them on the blog, seeing them for the first time was slightly surreal- it’s amazing what some good lighting, a pro behind the camera and no doubt some clever editing can do for one’s self esteem!

The clothes were a mix of Primark, H&M and vintage if I recall correctly. There’s not much else I can say on the matter apart from thanks to Milly for asking me to be involved!

It’d be cool to hear what you guys think (click on the images to view them full size).

  2. A photographer still needs a great subject/model! Love these photos (especially the faux bob made with your hair tucked into the sweater).

  3. Laura these are stunning! I love setting and the minimalist feel and the contrast of your hair against the neutral colours.

    How did you come to the conclusion that you don’t have the looks to become a model?! You are beautiful! Anyway.. these pictures are great as well, the tucked in bob really works. And I can’t believe these clothes are primark! They look so much more expensive xx

  16. You have the most stunning, striking looks and the loveliest nature to show any model up sweet Laura! Screw Rosie HW! Looking absolutely jaw dropping here, such a natural model and more so a natural beauty. There’s such a unique vibe to these beautiful photos and I love how cool, spacey and off the wall it is, yet totally heart warming too. So happy you got to live your dream, here’s to seeing you on the front cover on Vogue one day <3

  18. You very much have the looks to model, though perhaps best you didn’t for other reasons. These photos are stunning though, you are a beautiful model and Milly is very talented 🙂
