Few weeks ago I was invited to take polaroids of Elite Model Look Agency competitors and now I'm bringing you my thoughts on the whole experience + exclusive photos of my favorite (future) models. Also, one of the models was my fellow blogger @katarina_dodig, so I asked her to write a brief review of the whole competition from her standpoint.
First of all, I will be super honest with you and won't say that everything was so glamorous and fancy because, well, it wasn't. I had to shoot all the models really fast, so fast that even my camera was overheating, and those four hours of the whole event were intense. However, my dear Nika was with me so everything was so much easier and I really have to give credits to all competitors because they were pretty good for their first polaroid shooting. As much as I was satisfied with the models, I was really pleased working with the whole EMLA team, especially huge thanks to Elena who invited me to this event and gave me opportunity to be involved in such an amazing project.
Here are few words that Katarina has to say about it: "The whole day was amazing! Judges were open minded and friendly. They did everything to make us feel special... Since I've met some of the judges at the casting in Split, I had already known that they were professional and kind. However, having an agent from the Elite Model Look Paris there was an experience for itself. You could feel that some girls were nervous, so was I, but we were great support to each other. As this was my first time doing something like it, I really enjoyed! It's a cool feeling when professionals are taking your photos and walking in front of the stars from the modeling world. All in all, it was indeed a fulfilling experience."
