So i have finally summed up the courage to record my poems into a audio project which will be titled ‘Dirty Laundry’. I chose the name Dirty Laundry because most of my poetry have been quite autobiographical so this project is a memoir of sorts. I am excited and petrified at the same for some reason. I suppose it the jitters that come with giving up your most personal work into the public space and feeling uncertain about what people will do with it or how they will both receive and interpret it.
Of course we know that part of the process of putting this together is also getting dolled up for a photo-shoot. My wonderful friend Dami Elliot(Damell Photography) was gracious enough to help me out with the photography and so did TemiDollface with the styling. and Loise of Spotted makeovers did such an awesome job with the makeup, i wasn’t sure i wanted to wash my face but unfortunately i had to. I don’t get along with pimples very well.
Here i am trying out the hand on waist attempting to a Kate Moss
Here is the serious look. Don’t know how well its working though
Im terrible at being serious in photos, please dont hold it against me
