Beginner, starting out

---

I have had some professional photo shoots and workshops which have given me the experience and confidence to work with a camera and on a catwalk. I have also performed on stage and on television, so I am comfortable with direction, cameras and audiences.
I was an extra in a music video fo Cassie Davies, Like it Loud 2009.
Other relevant experience - I was one of a trio of singers/dancers, "Soundcheck", which reached the semi-finals of Australia's Got Talent 2009. This gave me fantastic experience at performing for camera.
