SHANA M- fitting right in with our other superstars...

We met you a year ago and after much discussion we signed you 4 months ago....Well done today you handled it like a pro- no one would have thought it was your first day in the " real " model world...

You flew in this morning, arrived at the studio for a quick development session, off you walked at the speed of the wind through the middle of town- in high heels whilst been given a quick intro into what a casting/ go-see was... not really enough time to sum up what we will guide you with over the next 15 years...:)

What a first casting- Gavin Rajah - the formidable hugely talented - local and internationally acclaimed designer... dashed back to the office, a bit shell shocked and was put into a quick international walk class..

Dashed off to your new home for the next two weeks, and told you had to be back with us at 7pm for a video...

Then came the mail- You confirmed 9 of the main showcase shows in CT Fashion week, including Gavin Rajah, Stefanio Morland, Abigail Betz.... and opening 3 shows of Foschini fast track .. Whew what an achievement

What an amazing mom you have ( like all our others :) who helped us out so much today- your support Lynda is truly appreciated and admired, thank you!!

You arrived at 7 pm and went into an unexpected development course on the fashion industry in the kitchen.. Fanie then went way above his means again and did some raw imagery that he is so well known for in Paris and New York. As all Fan Jam girls know  when Fanie shoots you he really pushes you ( not with standing that this was his third shoot for the day), he then with my encouragement threw in another look for local marketing....mmh what 12 pm.. heck we are exhausted and we haven't even started the video...

In we go with James directing and creating the big screen visuals for the DAX MARTIN show at CT fashion week, dancing like a mermaid, swimming like a fish, doused in baby oil. thrown in baths ... finish time 2.45am...

All our models know how hard we work for them, yet this day for us was hectic ( PS i could give a whole ten pages on all the plans with our other models, client's...that went on today too , but wont bore you with that..:)

Exhausted we are in bed at 4... but to open one's eyes and not be disappointed -- the material for the video is amazing...really amazing--- get on down to fashion week to watch..

To all the Fan Jam girls in town - be ready for the next month its going to be as hectic- if you allow us- the Fan Jam offices are cooking...
