Projections

I am no model, but I love pretending to be one. Believe me I wasn’t always like this. I was always a wallflower (or perhaps, still am) but who doesn’t like to feel pretty and have their picture taken. Before I sound too self-absorbed, let me just say that vanity is almost every girl’s sin.

So anyway when my cousin asked me to “model” for her photography class project, I instantly agreed. Automatically, I asked for the theme and what I needed to bring. She couldn’t explain what it was and she told me, to my amusement, that she was only going to shoot my upper body and just needed a plain white tube top.

On the day of the shoot itself, my cousin finally explained what she was going to do. It was going to be very conceptual; I would have to portray different emotions while being projected with different images.

I should stop blabbering here and just let the pictures speak for themselves.

Would you believe that this was just shot in a bathroom?

This is easily my favorite. I'm with my cousin here, who's the photographer's sister.

A Little Help From A Friend: Lena on The Modern Gabriela Silang


I consider Lena a rare gem. Not only is she a great friend, but she is a fabulous fashion blogger as well. I'm not exaggerating. Go ahead check out her blog. I wanna thank her for not turning my invitation down and for such an incredibly written entry. Haha I was simply amazed the first time I saw these photos and overjoyed when she said "YES" to putting them on my blog. Thanks again, Lena! Hats off to her cousin, Nerisa Marie Fernandez. You nailed it!
