#GirlBoss

8 Days - Dec 2017

December must be a good month for me. Another cover, another amazing shoot and another write up that stayed true to interview. A catch up of sorts, to find out the answers to the why-what-where of my career.

#GirlBoss. To think of it, I feel I have always been the boss of my own life. I have always held on to my views and my beliefs. I have gone on and accomplished some pet projects and fulfilled some dreams. I have always been very vocal with my opinions and ideas. I have always been protective over some areas of my life and it will always stay that way. So yes, maybe it’s all those tragic heroines that I play, maybe it always resonated with me, that we all have this strength in our hearts to be masters of our own destiny.

This shoot took place first in the studio and then in a car that costs 1.5m. Brand new. Thankful that I had the chance to indulge in such moments. Rare. Well, I guess this screams #LikeABoss. Unfortunately, in the real world, even #GirlBoss has to work damn hard to pay the bills. And no, I can’t afford this car. YET.

This by far, is my fastest 8Days shoot, including the change in location and bad weather conditions. We got every shot that we wanted at super speed. Before I knew it, Joel and Martin (photog and stylist) would be saying “NEXT!” Everything just fell into place.

Now let’s see where this new journey will take me. It will be the ride of my life.
