Hello everyone!! I apologize for my sudden absence from social media :(
University has just started again so I’m trying to get back in to this whole groove again!
Anyway, about a month ago, I had the opportunity to meet the man behind Asian Impressions and organise a quick photoshoot whilst he was in Melbourne. Now, I’ve never done any sort of fashion photoshoot before (all my photos are taken by Vu or myself :/) so I was …very nervous! So, this was definitely out of my comfort zone. But, I knew that I would regret it if I turned down the offer ..so I decided to go for it despite all of my uncertainties and doubts *_* !
Asos Woodland Print Dress, Top Shop Tights, Cape, Jay Jay Hat, Collete Jewellery
Whilst I’m sure that I could’ve been a much better model, I’m quite happy with how some of the photos turned out! There are a lot more than the ones posted here, but they’re not all edited and I feel like my own edits wouldn’t live up to these!!
But yes, apart from confirming that I’m a pretty socially awkward penguin, I learnt that it’s good to take a hold of opportunities when you can. Sometimes you only get one chance to do something, so don’t hold back! There’s nothing wrong with being afraid of the unknown, but we shouldn’t let our fear dictate and restrict the way we want to lives.
What’s out of your comfort zone?
I’m on your sweater B)
Gurl you are so pretty, like I want to cry tears of acid, but then I wouldn’t be able to admire you ouo I can imagine how ‘awkward’ it must’ve felt to ‘pose’ though, and sometimes, when you think you look good on a certain angle, they change you up and direct you there. But you look as cute as a button in these photos :3 I think I will have to YOLO it a bit more (shoot me, I just said YOLO) to opportunities now, what have I got to lose right?! Hope uni isn’t stressing you yet!

OH YEEE 8)
You’re such a warm and fuzzeh bunneh filled with compliments ;A; LET ME JUST HUG YOU OKAY. And oh, I was tempted to write #yolo in this blog post BUT THOUGHT AGAINST IT HMM. (In case I get attacked by angry anti-yolo people loolll)
I know this awkward feeling. I always feel a bit embarassed when someone expert takes a photo of me, so it’s also out of my comfort zone, hahaha! :)
Haha yess! But it feels awesome when the ending result is good!
I don’t think you are a
socially awkward penguin
at all c:
These photoshoots looks
really good! Love the 2nd

Thanks! I agree! Must grasp them while you can!

Thank you <3333
Things are a little crappy at the moment but I'm hoping I'll survive. And ahh, quiet Sundays are the best!!
You look beautiful! Great work with the photos! Love the print on your dress!
Thank youuu! xx
I’m really happy to see this post and I’m honored that you broke from your comfort zone and trusted meeting a stranger in order to take some pictures (which turned out beautifully, because I had such a pretty subject!)
I have always enjoyed street photography and taking random pictures of fashion on the streets. Breaking out of my comfort zone, involved actually going up to these stranger and asking to take their portraits. I’m pretty comfortable with it now and I love it- but in the beginning, I’d let so many people pass me by that I should have stopped!
Aw, no it’s definitely because of your awesome photography skills!
Oh, and I can definitely imagine how hard it would be to stop someone for their photo. I don’t think I could ever do that haha ..but maybe I’ll give it a shot one day :P Thank you again! x
Of course you would like the deers :3
I like your photos, it’s cute and funny (not too serious and that makes it really nice!) :)

Aw, the shots are really cute! It’s great that you chose to step out of your comfort zone. :) It’s necessary to do that once in awhile.
Photoshoots would be out of my comfort zone, too. I’m really awkward when taking photos. x__X
