A little about me ..When I was 12 years old I started modeling
(I'm feeling accomplished)
When I was 12 years old I started modeling. I told my mother to put me in it. I started doing runway at Sears department store for juniors clothes and JC Penny. I did live manikin in front of people, we had to stand and stay still for 15 minus each position in the mall . It was fun, they also gave me some of the clothes I model, and pay me really good. I was a teenager, so at my age it was not cool to say you where a model, it was embarrassing. So I stop doing it.
After a year I gained a little weight. I didn't like it, so I started going to the gym when I met my ex-boyfriend, he was in to the gym allot. I would work out for 2 hours in the cardio machine, I loved the gym. When I was 18 years old, I entered a model search in Florida. There were about 1000 girls, it was a big thing. They called by last name and age, I went to the table and they picked me to go to a Tampa Florida show, where you get picked by very high agents. Craig and I went to Tampa with his friends, they where going to Bush Gardens theme park. I didn't wake up early enough for my model show, so I went to Bush Garden instead. I missed out on that opportunity.
When I was parting in Miami, I got stopped allot from model agents, but I always lost their business cards. In 2002 we got invited to the Source Awards dinner. I went with a beautiful $800 dollar dress and $300 dollar shoes I felt like a princess. Again I got stop by an agent and he took a pictures of me. With that pictures he took of me, he got me some cool jobs, that's how I got started with modeling. I have never paid a photographer for any pictures, they would always give them to me free because they liked taking pictures of me...Julie
