Why Freelance Models Actually Rule

Many people of today's world seem to think building a mass following and looking pretty is the only way you will make a career in modeling... Here's to the freelance ladies hustling through to their dreams! I got you... you rock!

1.They're dedicated 💡💻📷🚘

Basically to be a full time or even part time freelance model & make a living you need to dedicate a lot of time ... and just like you... it takes a little bit to climb the latter to amazing top notch photographers. It's not as easy as it looks people.

2. Self - Lovers 🌝⭐️🙇🏻♀️💃🏻

This means that between people judging them & some of the weird shoots you have to do to get to a point of success - you have to have a stable mindset and love yourself. It isn't something most people have the balls to do, especially because you're alone ... a lot. You have to know your worth and love yourself to commit to modeling and push through the judgments and alone time. Not a lot of your circle can relate to it. Only a stable mind can handle it.

3. They're beautiful, not stupid. 💁🏻🤓💌🛍

Look, I believe every woman is beautiful in their own way, but models get a lot of crap and undeserving haters for being "models" - Either they're too pretty to be smart or ... the only reason they are models is because the way they look and that's bullshit. Every model in the freelance world has actually built & maintained clients and a living off of doing what they love. It isn't easy & you have to know what to look for. I don't think that is being stupid. I think that's being extremely intelligent, dedicated, and loyal to something they love. They are humble & quiet (most) and have an incredible sense of direction that may be intimidating to other females and even males. Pretty DOESN'T mean stupid. Just because you are beautiful also doesn't mean you automatically have what it takes to be a model.

4. They put up with a lot. 🤗✔️💯🔐

You see some interesting stuff in the industry of modeling - if you want a lady who can stand some weird flaws you might have - try a freelance model. I can almost guarantee they are one of the most laid back/weird & corky women you'll ever meet. You can be yourself around them once you warm up

CAUTION: you might fall in love

5. AWKWARDDDDD 🤷🏻♀️🙃😅💩

Most models are extremely awkward and their modeling is a side of them that's very different from their personality. It's an art & something you get into character with. You feel different ways & sometimes a picture isn't capturing the ten times she fell into the water awkwardly laughing feeling like a total good because her shoe got stuck in the mud.... or whatever the funny situation is. Also... HOW WEIRD IS IT TO SAY "Oh, I am a model" and then get asked a million questions and looked at differently! Yeah, they are awkward. Rightly so

6. Unlike anyone you've ever met 🙌🏼👩🏻🎤🥂💒

At first your impression might be that "models" are self righteous or think they're the shit but it's actually quite the opposite. Knowing that in the industry you're likely to get some hefty "ew no, you're too ___" or "she's not even signed with an agency - what does she even model for?" Lines - you better know that girl isn't going to come in your life and try and make you feel bad.

You go through a lot being a model, especially a freelance model. That type of bullying is something they don't stand for & I don't think any of them want to hurt your feelings. If anything they're afraid you're going to hurt theirs.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

11 Ways To Live The Best Life You Can

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun. In my 21 years of living, I have come to know that way too many people can't handle emotions, or the fact that not everyone is dead inside like them. When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.
