He forgot about it and only remembered when his Canadian Forces' course--bomb disposal!!! (way before "the Hurt Locker") was delayed a few months---he called them up and Voila! Our visits haven't linked up lately so I haven't seen him in a bit--Dave is suppose to do some sketches for his portfolio so we may get to see him this spring. I'd love to hear more of his 'work life' and I'll tell him about 'housewife life' =+} </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-models-story#post-336614 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 18:10:05 +0000 Lynne 336614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>cool - so good to know what's going on on the other side of the camera! </p> <p>Would you believe my life is a bit like this?

The story really sends home the point that brands are, to a degree, selling a fantasy to go along with their product. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-models-story#post-336565 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 16:03:22 +0000 Barbara 336565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great story, Patty. </p> <p>It really tells BOTH sides of the modeling industry: the fabulously opulent lifestyle WHILE you're modeling and the reality of the cramped apartment and not-much-thicker wallet when you get back home. </p> <p>His photo is fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-models-story#post-336563 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 15:46:39 +0000 Anonymous 336563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He looks like a natural-born billionaire! : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-models-story#post-336560 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 15:39:42 +0000 Angie 336560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a great story </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-models-story#post-336543 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 15:15:17 +0000 anne 336543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think he pulled it off very well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-models-story#post-336542 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 15:13:01 +0000 Patty 336542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie mentioned in her blog on older models about a younger model sporting clothing that might be out of her price range for her age the Chanel/Prada handbag example. It reminded me of a story my model cousin told me about a shoot out of his price range. He lived is a small apt with 4 other model guys of various experience/yrs in modeling--they were pretty cramped. He got a call and was put on a plane to Mexico for a shoot with another girl he knew from the biz. His shoot for the day was a thousands of dollar watch in a millions of dollar suit in a billions of dollar car in a back jungle location--way out of his day to day but had to pull it off like he owned it---LIFE IS ROUGH!! LOL Then he had to go back to cramped apt in Toronto.<br /> A pic of the shoot: </p>
