Easy

Do you think it is easy creating art and photography to share online or do you see the work and labor that goes into it?

I remember when I was younger I use to think things were so straight forward.

I use to believe that if you worked at a checkout in a supermarket it was only an hour shift. Then I worked at a checkout in a supermarket and 15hrs later my day was done.  I realised I did not see the world the way it really was.

I use to believe that being a model and having your photos taken was easy. Then I started working with photographers and realised how much work it was. Not only was it the hours I practice my skills before I was even photographed, but timing for the photo, planning, outfits, holding shapes (it is a workout in itself), braving the elements and finally the editing process where 100s of photos never are seen because something did not aligned with the camera, light or the person, place or thing being captured.

What has been something you have changed perspective on of late or over time?

It was so great to have you there experiencing it

I know and appreciate all the hard work that goes on behind the scenes, especially the time and work behind the shoots, as I have had the honour to experience a little first hand. The amount of content that you share is second to none, as well. I am so grateful to see you on all your platforms!

Thank you for seeing the work

To create something as professional as you do, you need to put a lot of work, learning and trying

I am so happy you are able to speak up more and it is helping. I had to learn this too

thank you it means a lot to have the work seen and also respected. So grateful for you

Never thought being creative was easy or creating was a piece of cake. Hard work, lots of preparation and planning, decisions about every little nuance and then the job of going over it again and again to see if it can be improved. I respect the work you put into your content and the quality you insist it reach. I have changed my perspective on health of late, There is so much I didn't know and still have to learn. Like learning how to climb a tree.

I've never thought that modeling was easy, which is one--one of many--reasons I admire you and what you do so very much. For me, the biggest thing that I've changed perspective on over the years is speaking out about the obstacles I've faced. I used to just internalize the blame, but now I'm letting people know about what has held me back.
