I met this monster of a model sunday while copping some new shades.
She was light skinned like Rihanna but lighter (high yellow), about 6'3" (no lie), and had a blonde mohawk/bang du. she just got her hair cut from a stylist right before I saw her and was trying on clothes.
I like an attractive tall chick that has the audacity to wear high heels. it speaks confidence to me. she was ironically both gangly and curvy... very unique.
After making small talk with the store clerk in walks this model. As I'm paying I tell the guy... 'man, she should model'.... not wanting to let the opp slip... I quickly grab a business card lying on the counter (not mine) and write my photography group link on facebook and my email. I stood outside and waited for her to come out...
It's tough to not come off like a creeper in this situation but I had to do what I had to do... just had that gut feeling y'kno?
but.... she continued to shop... I summoned the courage to go back in and just ask... "do you model?"
as fate has it.... she does.
Instead of demanding her number to stalk her into a photo shoot... I gave her the business card with my contact info. if she likes what she sees I told her to email me (i'm off facebook for the month of august) and I didn't give her my number b/c if she's serious she'll contact me. if i never see her again than at least I gave her a way to contact me.
i tell AJ a lot... I don't believe in luck..
luck didn't happen that day... i just went for it and made my own luck as TwoFace in Dark Knight would say.
the kicker for me is that I just got my amp fixed that morning so my bass was working again.... I was jammin' out as she left the store =p
as I left, I noticed her crossing the street in my rear view mirror.
it was as if she towered over the road only taking 2 steps to cross the street.
.... what a woman. ;)
