What does it take in the acting/modeling business

August 13th, 2010

Greetings! Beauty Headshot

My recent image taken in MN. Got to love this state for natural surroundings of landscape structure. I wish there was one word to tell you what it takes in this business. Isn’t it amazing when we look at every day products the input that is created into one product. A actor/model does the same to create one image. However, jokingly you would think, I have a production crew for lighting, location, wardrobe, hair and makeup. Approximately, a year ago. I almost left this business. The cuts on my knees, bandages/gauges on my feet from the blisters from every day work-outs the agony of pushing the limit with photographers. Then, one day, I woke up and said, I can’t give up…You see, I enjoy this business and really would love to share the real Jennifer Lauren Story. Luckily, I have kept all documentation of the last 10 years of my life. I’m not really certain, if it would do any good to hang on to it. I just feel someday, someone really should know the hard obstacles I went through and to pull off some of these images. I often wonder at my age if I can or would ever make it to the big league. Not because, of the fame and money. Because, I love to create and utilize my brain from the film production to producing images. I  LOVE to hear the click from the camera.

As my favorite photographer who I have built a great working relationship for years would say. My favorite quote: Come on one more click

Looks like, I’m heading out this week-end on film production and camera. I’m heading off to the Apostle Islands. I’m pretty excited!! Super blessed to work with great people.

Video - Tranquility of the Waterfalls

August 2nd, 2010

Greetings my beloved fans,

Thank you for being you and believing in me. Fans across the world in 45 countries has kept me alive to continue to produce images, videos and most of all keep my creativity alive. I have naturally been gifted as a child of creativity and am a visionary actor.

Times me be tough for all of us..with many people being unemployed, rising health care costs and people loosing there homes due to financial status. Remember, there is always a door open if we push our intellectual side to the limits. Taking risk is not always a bad thing. In fact, it may just open a door. Through my career, I have toughed it out and still continued to shoot images and produce video’s with next to zero budget. The greatest entrepreneurs will know how to handle tough times and push through obstacles. 

When a door is shut a new door is open. Never give up on your dreams no matter what you want to do in life. When, times we’re the hardest I wrote, directed and produced a video called, “Tranquility of the Waterfalls”

I take you to a place of tranquility with the background sound of the waterfall.

Greetings my beloved fans,

Isn’t it amazing within 30 seconds we judge people by the way we dress, smile, posture and our attitude. Regardless, remember you never can judge a book by it’s cover. The heart does amazing things when we use it right.

A model’s risks…

July 18th, 2010

Greetings my beloved fans,

Have you ever wished you would be doing something else in your career? A lot of people ask me. Why, I chose acting/modeling as a career.  Being an actor/model is not a hobby for me it is a career. Like many others, I work a full-time gig and do this on the side. I have been building my book of images (which by the way, I have shot over 500 CD’s) to date and have over 500 images. Which, is more than the above average. I work with photographers and produce films because, I enjoy being creative and seeing the end result. If you think my job is easy it is not. Many models email me and ask me for advice to get into this business. Only 1% world-wide ever make it to a branding name, whether your an actor or model. It’s a tough gig and many, many self-sacrifices.  Example: Yesterday, I was up at 3:00 a.m. getting ready for a photo-shoot. There’s many pre-planning of a photo-shoot. From hair, make-up, location, photographer and of course wardrobe. Which, since my career. I have done it all! Hopefully, there is some appreciation out there and someone respects my hard efforts. I have taken risks in this industry and also have self-funded my career. I wouldn’t change it for the world. On my 6th year of acting/modeling a door opened in Cebu-Philippines to work in the film industry and be in films world-wide. I was honored to be asked to do study work and receive film credits.  I was keeping this opportunity very private for sometime until I was going. A few months, I had an unforeseen situation occur. I was blind sided and devastated. Which, had held me back from going to the Cebu-Philippines. The most difficult situation was emailing Bigfoot Entertainment and praying they would understand. I have not heard from them yet…since, I let them know I could not make it do to high health premiums. I don’t have $4000 to boot to pay out of my pocket to my Insurance provider.  My local paper was even willing to do a write-up on my experience and a write-up when I return. 

I would of beat the odds World-Wide and the odds of Minnesota.

Taking risks..isn’t bad..just know there can be heartache.

New images next week.

God Bless!
