New Year , New Blog



So many of us start the New Year with resolutions and before too many days have passed failed miserably, well this year I'm just going to make the one resolution and that is to do the best I can in all that I do. That includes keeping this blog up to date with the goings on of the modelling career of Silkythighslou.

A lot of models say that their modelling name and character are really an alter ego, but I can truthfully say that Silkythighslou is me as I am in real life and those that know me will vouch for this. A little bit naughty, risk taking, fun loving, but also serious about what I do, hardworking, professional, creative, I could go on but I'm sure that you will discover for yourselves from my entries here and my work what I'm like.

2013 was a fantastic year for me as a model. I travelled  all over the UK for work including several tours, met some fantastic photographers and models and made lots of new friends. 2014 is going to be more of the same and working even harder to promote mature models. Sadly I find that many older models get type cast with a particular type of work and I want to show that this need not be the case. Older models can give so much more to shoots than some of the younger wannabes and I am a firm believer that photographers, designers, MUAs, studios in fact the whole creative fraternity should be looking to develop more work with the older age group.

The two images I have posted today are from a fantastic shoot I had with a wonderful photographer called Orson Carter. I travelled all the way down to Somerset for this and it was so worth the early get up and the journey. We covered a number of styles and over the weeks I will show you more of the work we produced.

Well that's me for today, now to open a nice bottle of french red wine bought for me by my neighbours and cook something delicious for dinner .
