In August, I was approached twice by women in regards to “modeling”. The first time, I thought, “How flattering.” The second time, I thought, “Maybe there is something here.” Well, there is something there. I did a model shoot for La Grande Dame. I was invited back to shoot with them again this weekend.

I’ve received great feedback from the photographer, my family and friends. It has been a wonderful experience and major boost to my body image.

Who would have thought that I (me) would be celebrated for her curves. For all these years, I have fought them. Dieted and exercised to rid myself of them.  Now, I am being ‘rewarded’ for them. (Yes, I get paid!)

Here are some test shots for another designer: IGIGI. I am a HUGE fan of her designs. They work so well for my body.
