My Little Model’s London Trip
Myself, My partner and our little guy are all signed up with agencies as a family to do modelling. This is just something I have always done as I was always with agencies from being very small, starting with Pampers Adverts! A lot of people will have opinions on parent’s putting their little one’s with agencies and letting them do modelling. I think most people think that it is a case of pushy parents wanting their child to be a model, so they can be like, my baby is so good looking and he actually does modelling. Although for some parent’s yes this is totally the case, in reality a…

Life As An Extra
You may have noticed on the Supermummy Secrets Facebook page that I have posted a few times about a TV series called Beowulf. You may have even seen some of the behind the scenes photos I posted of myself wearing rags all dirtied up. Well this is just another one of my various jobs that I do, I am a TV/Movie Extra. Now you may have watched the series that Ricky Gervais brought out which was a comedy all about being an Extra and, although it was a little OTT, I couldn’t help but think about how much of it was true to real life. First of all you should…

AO.com Tv advert – Behind the scenes
Most people will have seen the ao.com tv adverts by now featuring real ao.com customers telling a story about needing something new from a cooker to a vacuum cleaner. The most recent was a family whose cooker had broken at Christmas, so they ordered a new one from ao.com that arrived next day. You always watch these adverts and think, they must be done by actors or something, but nope, I now know that they genuinely do use their customers. Which I think is fantastic. I know this because as a customer of ao.com I received a generic email asking if I would like to put my family forward for their…

Beauty Photo Shoot and Actor Headshots
Ages ago I was contacted by a photographer named Graham Kenneth Short about potentially doing a photoshoot. Due to various things going on we could just never seem to find a date to actually get it done but finally last month we managed to find a spare few hours. I had just been sent some lipsticks from Urban Decay to review and as the colours were so lovely and bold, we decided to base the shoot around them and make it a beauty shoot. This meant all photos were pretty much just of my head and shoulders. As well as doing the beauty shots Graham asked if I needed some headshots doing…
