Finally, Flashing a Smile
When asked by a good friend if I could be their model for their photography practice, I never hesitated. Sandy, who is currently studying photography, along with two of her friends Mark and Cha went with me at UP Diliman last Saturday for a shoot practice. I felt really glad that they have considered me as their practice model for the shoot. It was fun working with photographers who would not only do everything to learn, but also overcome their models number one insecurity -- to smile.![704057_10151232075118113_913912103_o](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_ujqCe-GjU3h-J7wSF-IFgJel_ErQdx9ZnPIxx34R5cMwpkd7UvOIazxHxhwzAy5Rgbhud6L8Mf5XQlBG9KdP8144D18PfwZYsrkCwY8XZa9xgrXMGbcwGrk_DpN4vmwBOL=s0-d)

For the longest time I have been blogging, I rarely post photos of me smiling with teeth. I never smile with teeth even before, as I tend to hide my then very crooked teeth. I always feel ugly whenever I flash my pearly whites, so I'd rather conceal it and show off those that are a lot more photo-worthy. But with the case of this shoot, Mark, Cha and Sandy convinced me to smile as they find it a lot more appealing (and full of life) than flashing my usual papaya (as I label it) smile.

I was still in doubt if my smiling photos would turn out nice until I saw the final set of photos Mark, Cha and Sandy sent me. I am also in disbelief as this is one of the few times that I appreciated photos where I am smiling, smiling with teeth. I am really thankful, not only because the photos turn out beautiful, but also thankful that they made me realize how nice it is to flash a smile.

I'm really glad that they have selected me to be their model for their practice shoot. I am not a pro in modelling, nor an expert in projecting poses, still I'm grateful that they have trusted me. Obviously, they are good in taking photos (even finding the right angle for their subject) and they would be happy to work with anyone who's interested to work with them too. :)
More of our photos will be posted soon :)

On my part, I find it hard to smile. LOL I'm not as photogenic; I have a love-hate relationship with the camera---but mostly hate. :)))) Keep on having fun with what you do :)
