First shoot wth Jess today. A lovely, fun model with a great personality and a will to achieve what I'd explained about the shoot. Its important that models and togs communicate well pre-shoot (IMO) and Jess certainly gets full marks for that as with a recent change of hair colour - she let me know and sent a photo in good time before the shoot which demonstrated to me that she had a professional and importantly a conscientious approach to her shoots. On shoot day, Jess listened carefully to the details of how the shoot would progress and worked hard throughout to attain the results. At one point, a certain scene prop was making the scene very difficult and so I called 'cut' and instantly abondoned that scene as the prop was to blame and could not be remedied. However, if I hadnt - I am sure Jess would have battled on to make the scene work despite the odds with the faulty prop being stacked against her. Again - this shows a strong desire to succeed which is very admirable. As a side note, Jess has some deep and well formed views on certain subjects we discussed and those views mirror my own and so it was a pleasure to discuss things with her as her intelligence obviously shines through along with her drive to achieve the magic that is seen by the lens. A fantastic shoot and one that was made enjoyable simply by Jess being Jess. I'd certainly recommend Jessica to anybody reading this and hope to shoot with her again very soon. Thanks Jessica!
