A boy. Hmmm. A BOY. Hehe. She tilted her head at the boy, regarding him with a smile, "Nice to see we won't only have girls." She said, handing over a pamphlet. She leaned against the booth, and flipped her hair off of her shoulder, "You want to be a model?"
Model? Eek. Well, he sure had muscles, the looks, the styles and whatnots buuuut, he wasn't sure if he could be, like, a model, walk on a runway, and see himself half-naked or wearing stylish clothes on fashion magazines. He suppressed as smile while shaking his head a bit. "Ah. Nope. I'd like to be fashion photographer," he replied to the beautiful woman and veered his head to the man and watched him in utter curiosity.
"Are you, err, a photographer?" Well, he looked like one. Ced would be really pleased to meet the guy. And he wasn't exactly sure but it was like he'd seen the man or the man's name before... somewhere.

Making his way past a booth he notice something. It actually....looked cool? Sure it had pink but....still that wasn't too much of a negative. Pushing his way past some people he picked up a pamphlet and realized that the booth was about....fashion?
Fashion was...sorta cool. He more style than most people here at Hogwarts who actually listened to the dress code.
Legend's green eyes gazed around for someone to question, almost immediately his mouth dropped. HE KNEW THAT GIRL! Her name wass...was....SOMETHING! McKenna!! She was a model now? So she was rich? COOL! "Hey!" Legend called out as he walked over to her. "I...don't know if you remember me, but I remember you! How'd you become a model?"
As if on instinct, Evolette tossed a glance over at the Potions booth, just in time to catch a smirk, and a quick glance from Nicholai. She gave him a smirk of her own... and was promptly distracted, by work.
With one arched eyebrow, Evolette took in the boy who seemed rather excited to be at the job fair, or perhaps, he was simply excited to see her, who wouldn't be? "I remember you." She told him, how could she not remember him? He was... not easily forgotten, made his presence known. Like right now.
Tilting her head, she motioned to Colton, the photographer. "See that man right there?" she asked, from her perch on top of the booth, "He discovered me." It was true. "Modeling had never even crossed my mind before that, it was something I sort of fell into." She shrugged, it really had been as simple as that.
"Are you going to try the runway, Legend?"

"That's the man to talk to then." She said, pointing to the runway, where Colton was busy taking pictures. But it seemed the child had figured it out on his own, so Evolette had time to examine her manicure.
"Well, well, well." Evolette crossed her arms, and sent a look at her cousin, and her cousin's friend, a smirk on her lips. "Good to see you, Brody." She tilted her head towards the other girl, offered a smile and nodded at the runway, "What'dya say, want to give it a shot?"
Being half McKenna, Brody was sure to be the best walk anyway.
Mm. Gold turned, for a moment, a pure-green gaze towards the runway, before calmly removing it, and focusing it on Evolette McKenna, instead. There is real vanity, perceived vanity - and vanity that is just plain irritating. Hopefully, this model was not going to fall into that last category. Because people like that ticked Gold off.
"It won't make me a career, but why not?" She said, with a shrug.
Runways hadn't hurt, yet.

"I'm gonna have a go." She grinned, referring to the runway. Well it was pretty much expected of her really, she had done a few modelling shoots so. And she pretty much owned the stage, so she knew she'd be awesome. "You'll be good at it." She commented loosely as she let go of Gold's hand, and fished out a mirror from her bag. Yesh. She looked good, and she had to look good if she was going to have a photograph taken. It was just period; for a summers anyway.
Gold shrugged. "I've met all sorts," she offered. She did not think she was going to regret meeting Evolette McKenna, at any rate. People, even those with the annoying type of vanity, help you learn. Not to mention, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger. Though it would be stooping from her own standards, if Gold was going to acquire strength from someone else's vanity. She had enough of her own.
Not enough to get on anyone's nerve, though.
"Good? I'll be excellent." She gave Brody a grin, to show that it was somewhat a joke - somewhat only, of course. Gold had no doubt she was going to be good, if she did give it a try. But, of course, she could not say she would be the best. Why? Because this wasn't where her heart lay. She loved fashion, of course she did, but it wasn't her passion.

"Fabulous." She added, "I'm was just in the Daily Prophet recently, and those silly Muggles are practically falling all over each other to sign me." As it should be, as it should be.
Tucking her bangs back from her eyes, she turned to look at the other girl, "And what about you? What is your name?" Why she had not yet introduced herself was beyond her understanding. Maybe she was in awe. Heh.

Not like a few others things were.
"Obviously." Because Brody's life did not revolve around her cousins; far from it. She had far more important things to think about, like her own life. "And I am not little Evolette." Okay. So it one sense she was a little, height wise, but she was nearly seventeen. She not small, not at all. Well in her opinion anyway.
"I saw." She nodded, referring to the Daily Prophet. Her father had sent her it so she could see what she should be aspiring to be like after Hogwarts. It still hadn't changed her mind, nothing would really. "Not surprising they all want to sign you." Because Evolette was beautiful, and Brody was not just saying that because they related. She said it because it was true.
The blonde turned back to her bestie, and smiled. "see...I know you know that you'll be excellent." And that was good, if it hadn't confused her. But Brody was best friends with two rather vain girls, so they probably would understand each other, with the whole I'm excellent business.
Brody turned back to the runway, folding her arms, as she watched the competition other people walking. Hmm. She and Gold would be the best, she was sure of it.
And Gold hadn't introduced herself yet? Oppsie. Maybe Brody should have taken the honours of introducing her bestie to the amazing Evolette McKenna. "Oh....This is Gold." She motioned to her best friend, before turning back to the runway. "My best friend." She spoke casually, because everyone knew anyway.
Hmm. She watched as the next person finished. Well she probably should get on with this, so that they could look at the next booths. "I'll go next." She shrugged, with a little confidence. Get it over and done with right?

And to that comment, Evolette shrugged, "Well, if you don't have the confidence to think it may get you a career, then perhaps you shouldn't try it at all."
And that was that.
She looked at her cousin, her blue gaze steady and calculating for a few good seconds, "Certainly not." She said with a LAUGH. Hahaha. Silly child. "And what are you now, Brody dearest, five years old?" She giggled, only teasing of course, and then her attention was turned to the girl with the very bright red hair.
"Lovely to meet you Gold." She replied, wondering why the child could not introduce herself, she was big enough after all, was she not? "I am Evolette McKenna." Thank you for stating the obvious, McKenna. Thanks.

Gold grinned. Hehe.
She raised an eyebrow, when Brody introduced her. There was no need, to be honest. It wasn't like Gold was going to run into Evolette McKenna ever again. For any good reason, at the very least. "That's me," she said, with an indifferent shrug. Even though she still did not get why she had to give Miss McKenna here, her name.
"Sure." She gave Brody a warm smile, when her bestie spoke again. Runway!Brody would be nice to watch.
Hehe.

Gold raised an eyebrow. "You missed the point," she said, politely. "It could easily get me a fantastic career, if I put my mind to it. I just don't think it's worth it. My passion is to heal. Curse-breaking, for a close second. My opinion is that I can't do any involved good I can do to the poor and needy on a daily basis, by walking down a runway." Fashion should always be a necessary accessory, never the most major chunk of one's life.
Then she added, still politely, "I thought the point of these booths was to introduce us to possible careers, lay out options in front of us, so to speak. If I had known someone not absolutely bent upon a certain career isn't meant to visit that booth for ideas, or 'probably shouldn't try' something at one of the booths here, I wouldn't have come over."

Evolette smirked.
What a rude little child.
She waved her hand at her. "Well, since you yourself just said you have no interest in Fashion, then why bother?" DUH. Honestly. "I'm sure there is some kind of Healer booth about, perhaps you should go pester people over there."
Evolette did not know if there was, or was not a Healer booth, nor did she care, the only important booths were hers, and that Potions booth that she kept stealing glances at.
But... shoo. Go away child. Great Merlin. Gryffindors. She never did like them.

Hehe.
Brody glared at her older cousin for like half a second before giggling a little. "Oh yes Evee....Im 5" She rolled her eyes, grinning a little. Evolette was like that, the girl enjoyed teasing people has much as she did herself. And Brody also knew it wasn't too good to actually contradict Evolette, because only Evolette won.
But yes. Actually she was going to ask Evolette some questions now. Because she was considering modelling, sort of, and it would probably please her father. "So...how did you get into Evee?" Not that she didn't know some of that story, but still might help.
Brody grinned at her best friend, knowing what was going through her hair. But some part of her knew that Evolette was only curious...because she had come up to the booth after all. She linked her arm through Goldy's grinning. They were totally the best friends ever.
"Goldy's gonna have a go too!" She assured, well everyone. Because Brody wanted to see how awesome her best friend was.

"Excuse me," Gold said. "But it's not nice of you to allot words to me, that I haven't said." She crossed her arms, against her chest. "I have every interest in fashion, and I never said I did not. I do not, however, have an interest in pursuing it as a career, yet."
She resisted the urge to point out that healing needed more than just a pretty face - it needed brains. You couldn't get into it if you knew how to dress up, but had no intelligence.
She turned to Brody.
"I don't think so," she said quietly. "I'll be at the Healers' booth," she added, cheerfully. "I need to ask a few more questions, there." Not to mention, the people there actually knew how to do their job, and didn't try to drive people off. Maybe Evolette McKenna was insecure? That would be weird if Miss McKenna was insecure because of someone who had only done one or two photoshoots, and had no mind to pursue a career as a model.

Evolette was pointedly ignoring the child with the obnoxious hair, in favor of her cousin.
"I was discovered." She replied, "Never before had I tried modeling, until a photographer practically begged me to let him shoot me." She shrugged, "I am a natural, and I bet you are as well." Good genes in that kid. Good genes.
"Have a go." She nodded, "We'll see if you're really related to me, or if you're adopted." Hehehe.

What? The annoying one had not left yet? She was standing there like she had a point to prove to a person who did not care about a word she was saying, nor was she listening.
What-EVER.
"Brody. When you decide what you're doing, the man to see is over there." She gave her cousin a glance, before walking away from the booth, and over to the runway.

"Give me a second to develop the photograph I think is best. In the meantime, feel free to fill out one of our applications."
Not waiting for any answer whatsoever, Colt put away the props and made his way to the small separate black tent that served as his portable dark room. Choosing the three he thought looked best, he made quick work of developing them and placing them in a black portfolio with the NMA logo on the front.
Striding purposefully to the girl he handed it to her. "Here you are, Madeline. Your complimentary photographs." Giving her a hard look, he continued. " You paid attention well, and did not give attitude. That in itself is a very well liked attribute in a model." Thinking about it, he decided that her cooperation probably had to do with her age. Most of the 15+ age group were total pains that usually did not understand that as a photographer he directed the shoot, not catered to their every whim. It was a rare individual, like Evolette, who understood the art of it.
" Starting out young is a privilege. One that is a responsibility and I will be honest, a lot of work. As of this moment, you are good. You are not great. But you have potential. A potential that if you nurture can grow into something great."
Looking down at her, Colt even managed to give her a small private encouraging smile. " If you do decide this is for you, you might think about sending the photographs I just took of you to the Morton Company. I took the liberty of writing their information on the back. They are always looking for girls for their advertising campaign, and maybe in the future once you've had more experience you can consider meeting with us again. I assure you, we look forward to it. If you have any questions, Evolette knows all there is to know about the business. "
Gesturing toward the booth, he himself turned towards the small group.
Through all this, Colt had been listening carefully to the going ons and was satisfied to find that another student was ready for the runway.
"What you do, my dear, is follow me to the props."
Giving her a few once overs, he realized the changes he had to make to the lighting, and possibly the addition of color but was glad to find that the raw material was something he could work with. This girl was not a hopeless case.
Going through the props, he decided that pleasantries were important.
"What is your name?"
Maddie smiled 'I'd love to be a model' she said, nodding and taking the pictures from his hand. 'I'll definitely send these off!' putting them in her bag, she took an application form from the table and filled it in 'Do I owl this, or give it to you?' she asked

She really had no idea what exactly she was doing there in the first place. She decided to make idle conversation. "So... do you like your job? Photographing models?" Selena asked a bit awkwardly. IT was okay right? That was why they were there? To answer questions...?
Taking a few backwards glances to confirm his thoughts, Colt analyzed her bone structure. "A pleasure Selena," he said pointing a haphazard thumb at himself as he gave his own name. "Colt."
That was all the introduction he needed after all, but enough of the pleasantries. Circling her a few times, he realized that the feature to highlight most would have to be her eyes. The purple blue would center the shot and provided a focal point to the picture.Tuning in on what he considered babbling, he gave her a disbelieving look and quite literally gave a bark of laughter. " Job!? Darling, this is what I live for. I am an artist and this is my art, so to answer your delightful question: Yes. I do not just like my 'job' I adore it. "
Staring at her a bit more, he unholstered his wand and gave her a reproachful look. "Now, modeling is a skill. One not everyone can do. But with the right instruction, the right direction, the lighting, the right vision and action-"
As he spoke he softened the lighting, arranged a curved shelf as the backdrop on the runway that was filled to the brim with an array of nail polishes, changed the color of the background curtains to a darker color and finally turned back towards her.
"Now Darling if you don't mind." Without waiting for an answer he took hold of her hands, delighted to find that indeed they were quite lovely and took the liberty of aiming his wand. "This will fade off in a few hours." Almost instantly, her nails took on a purple-blue nail polish that looked perfect with the lighting.
Looking at his background, he decided he'd keep up the disco ball that casted the slight twinkles all around the runway and stared at her pointedly.
" Now get up there and please do this pose for me." Demonstrating, he brought up his hand gracefully against his face. Satisfied that she knew what to do- Although seriously who would not understand- he grabbed his camera and took his place on the small step ladder.
"Pause in front of the shelf and turn to your left and then your right, after which I would like you to keep your hand up and walk forward while slowly turning your head this way and that. As you are observing individuals on each side of you."
Not sparing any more time for instructions, he prepped his camera and hoped the girl knew how to at least follow directions.

With one arched eyebrow, Evolette took in the boy who seemed rather excited to be at the job fair, or perhaps, he was simply excited to see her, who wouldn't be? "I remember you." She told him, how could she not remember him? He was... not easily forgotten, made his presence known. Like right now.
Tilting her head, she motioned to Colton, the photographer. "See that man right there?" she asked, from her perch on top of the booth, "He discovered me." It was true. "Modeling had never even crossed my mind before that, it was something I sort of fell into." She shrugged, it really had been as simple as that.
"Are you going to try the runway, Legend?"
She remembered him. That made sense. He was Legend, people couldn't just go and...FORGET HIM. Of course he did know her back when he was still in the cootie stage...but STILL.
Legend blinked a couple times, confused. She never thought of modeling? But....Evolette was like....pretty. REALLY pretty. Silly girl. Didn't she know that good looking people just had to think of modeling first? That was why he was here! And because he saw her. Yup! "Kinda weird. So what did you want to be when you left Hogwarts? And do you like make a lot of money?"
Runway? That would be...awkward. Buut if he just shrugged it off like it meant nothing..."Sure I'll try but... I don't really know what to do?" Didn't you just walk down the path and make little pouty expressions?

Staring at her a bit more, he unholstered his wand and gave her a reproachful look. "Now, modeling is a skill. One not everyone can do. But with the right instruction, the right direction, the lighting, the right vision and action-"
As he spoke he softened the lighting, arranged a curved shelf as the backdrop on the runway that was filled to the brim with an array of nail polishes, changed the color of the background curtains to a darker color and finally turned back towards her.
"Now Darling if you don't mind." Without waiting for an answer he took hold of her hands, delighted to find that indeed they were quite lovely and took the liberty of aiming his wand. "This will fade off in a few hours." Almost instantly, her nails took on a purple-blue nail polish that looked perfect with the lighting.
Looking at his background, he decided he'd keep up the disco ball that casted the slight twinkles all around the runway and stared at her pointedly.
" Now get up there and please do this pose for me." Demonstrating, he brought up his hand gracefully against his face. Satisfied that she knew what to do- Although seriously who would not understand- he grabbed his camera and took his place on the small step ladder.
"Pause in front of the shelf and turn to your left and then your right, after which I would like you to keep your hand up and walk forward while slowly turning your head this way and that. As you are observing individuals on each side of you."
Not sparing any more time for instructions, he prepped his camera and hoped the girl knew how to at least follow directions.
Selena was completely nervous. Her nails were done in a pretty shade of blue and the photographer had gave a laugh at her. Okay. She was afraid. The man, Colt, instructed her to walk, pause in front of the shelf before turning to the left and right and keep the hand up while walking and turning her head... seemed easy enough... right? So Selena took a deep breath and walked, doing the pose, covering her face just the slightest, but so that her purple eyes peeked out from behind her hands.
She walked a bit hestantly before calming herself down. 'You can do this!!' Selena told herself mentally. Gosh that sounded terrible. She walked and paused at the shelf filled with the different nail polishes and turned left, then right a bit slowly before continuing her walk and turned her head left. Then right. And continued to walk as she turned her head.
Modeling sure was hard work... how did they make it seem so natural?

Legend blinked a couple times, confused. She never thought of modeling? But....Evolette was like....pretty. REALLY pretty. Silly girl. Didn't she know that good looking people just had to think of modeling first? That was why he was here! And because he saw her. Yup! "Kinda weird. So what did you want to be when you left Hogwarts? And do you like make a lot of money?"
Runway? That would be...awkward. Buut if he just shrugged it off like it meant nothing..."Sure I'll try but... I don't really know what to do?" Didn't you just walk down the path and make little pouty expressions?
Evolette shrugged, "I didn't know, really." She flipped dark curls over her shoulder, "I got lucky, I was discovered and I hit it big, that doesn't happen to a lot of people." Really, it was like 1 in 100.
"I make..." She paused, and grinned at him, "A lot, yes. But see, I don't just work in the Wizarding world, I also work with Muggles." And the Muggles? They adored her. "I've been modeling a little over a year now, and I'm the top grossing model in the agency."
So, see, Legend, Evolette McKenna was truly a star.
She pointed to the photographer, "You go over to him, and you do exactly what he tells you to do, he's the best photographer around, make sure you pay close attention."

Torin wasn't really sure why he was here when he had no real interest in modeling despite the fact that Brody kept wanting him to do it with her. Part of him was considering it too, but really he wasn't sure about it. Being a baker/photojournalist/model would be a lot of work.
Then he spotted someone that he hadn't seen in a few Terms. "Evee. I didn't think you would be here." He smiled at her even though he knew that she thought he was creepy.

"Weeelll imma lucky person." Legend declared, then he shrugged. "Plus it really doesn't matter to me. It just seems sorta cool. You know. The coolness..AND the money. "Hmm....who would of thought the Cootie Lady would become a model?" Grinning as he asked this Legend held out his hand. He was NO LONGER a believer in cooties. Except for...you know that ONE person. "Nice you see you again Lette. I hope you become the most famous and talked about model ever....you know...before you get old."
And now it was time to see that photographer dude!

Taking a few backwards glances to confirm his thoughts, Colt analyzed her bone structure. "A pleasure Selena," he said pointing a haphazard thumb at himself as he gave his own name. "Colt."
That was all the introduction he needed after all, but enough of the pleasantries. Circling her a few times, he realized that the feature to highlight most would have to be her eyes. The purple blue would center the shot and provided a focal point to the picture.Tuning in on what he considered babbling, he gave her a disbelieving look and quite literally gave a bark of laughter.

Making his way over slowly Legend couldn't help feel sorry for the guy. First he had a line up of people wanting to act the models and THEN he had to deal with the stuck up girls. Torture. He was GOING to tap the guy on the shoulder but...he didnt want to tigger some random photographer meltdown soo he just waited patiently (yes there was a first time for everything), at the photographers side.

Selena was completely nervous. Her nails were done in a pretty shade of blue and the photographer had gave a laugh at her. Okay. She was afraid. The man, Colt, instructed her to walk, pause in front of the shelf before turning to the left and right and keep the hand up while walking and turning her head... seemed easy enough... right? So Selena took a deep breath and walked, doing the pose, covering her face just the slightest, but so that her purple eyes peeked out from behind her hands.
She walked a bit hestantly before calming herself down. 'You can do this!!' Selena told herself mentally. Gosh that sounded terrible. She walked and paused at the shelf filled with the different nail polishes and turned left, then right a bit slowly before continuing her walk and turned her head left. Then right. And continued to walk as she turned her head.
Modeling sure was hard work... how did they make it seem so natural?
The first thing Colt felt like yelling was 'RELAX!' but of course he refrained himself. Not because of pity or any emotional reason like that, but because he understood people. And this girl was giving offwaves of nervousness that would only be further enhanced if he were to say anything. So for this reason he let her be and he instead moved around constantly in an attempt to get better shots.
The good thing was that towards the end it seemed she finally let loose a bit.
Click.Click.Click. The sounds of his camera were all he heard. Of course he was aware of some person standing nearby but the professional in him refused to acknowledge 'it' until he was finished.
Which in 15 more shots was exactly what he was. "And that's a wrap." With a sweep of his wand the shelf disappeared and the curtains brightened to pink again and the disco ball stopped its rotations. Conjuring a small stool, he motioned for her to sit and made his way to his dark room/ tent.
In less than 7 minutes he was back with a black portfolio in hand. Kneeling down so he was eye level with her, he decided to give it to her straight. "Listen Selena, I am not here to lie to you or to make you feel good about yourself. I'm here to be honest and criticize. That is what I do." Opening the folder he showed her 5 different shots of her, three oh which consisted of headshots. He brought the first full body one forward.
With his finger he lead her eyes to the way she was holding her arms, and the slight stoop of her shoulders. "Look here, your entire posture tells me, and tells whoever sees this picture that you are not sure of yourself. That you don't trust yourself. That alone makes this picture wrong." Pausing for a second he gave an exasperated sigh and continued.
" Now yes I admit there are some people that are just purely physical beauty but I will tell you now that those are few and rare and there are very few photographers who like working with them due to their egos." Oh Merlin those EGOS! " But most are people who are striking, who are normal but beautiful, who appeal to everyone. People who know how to present themselves. Tell me, how can the world think your beautiful if yourself don't?"
Flipping to the picture he'd taken at the end of the runway he continued hoping she knew that was a rhetorical question that she was supposed to think of on her own time. "Now here," he said a bit triumphantly."Here you let go a bit. Notice your back, notice the way your hands arn't clutched at your sides and the way you are letting them move with your body. The crane of your neck isn't stiff, more natural."
Flipping to the three headshots he spread them out in front of her. "And here this one at the beginning you were blinking too much, slightly holding your breath probably unconsciously. You can tell by the rise of your shoulders as you held that breath. ALL that can be conveyed in one photograph." His finger this time poked the second headshot the one he personally liked the most. "Here your eyes were wide, alert, saying 'So what this is me.' your mind was somewhere else and your body reacted naturally." The picture depicted a very good profile shot where indeed the focal point was the depth of her eyes.Making her look like a different person. Not the shy little girl the others showed. "This is a shot you should save. Something you should look at often to remind yourself how self esteem is important."
Pointing to the final shot now that was more a side of face and hair picture he brought it up closer to her face. "Now this picture I took it for a specific reason. Although your hair I must admit needs a bit of taming and quite frankly a bit of blush would do you good, the overall raw material is quite good and you do have strong cheekbones.Notice in this picture where your hair falls away you actually look quite striking. My advice..." he paused for a second wondering if she wanted it and then thought well of course she did."Is to buy yourself some nice hair clips. It will enhance your good features."
Realizing that he'd pretty much said everything that he could say he got to his feet again. "Evolette is right at the booth and will surely answer any questions you have. And remember...confidence!"
SPOILER!!: 1st male model XD

Turning finally to his little shadow throughout the whole procedure he raised one heavy eyebrow. "Will you be taking a run as well?"

Selena smiled at him. "Thank you Mr. Colt, for being completely honest with me," Selena said. Selena took the photos gratefully and the criticism as well. She hated people who lied to her... and she really was grateful he told her dead on what was wrong. He was a bit blunt as well. She really hadn't planned on any of this. "You've really inspired me," Selena smiled, "It's was nice meeting you Mr. Colt," Selena said as she held out her hand for the older man to shake.

Taking her hand in his large one, Colt shook it firmly.
"You are very welcome. It is quite nice to see someone accept criticism. Now remember what I said, hair combs and confidence."

Ah. She had to admit, she'd wondered if Torin Kane would find his way to her booth. Giving the boy a once up, once down kind of look, Evolette smirked at him, adjusting her position on top of the booth slightly and crossing her legs, "Why not?" She asked, arching an eyebrow at him.

....Cootie Lady?
Evolette decided to let that go, after all, this kid was by far the nicest out of them all, and the best at dishing out the compliments, even if they did have that unmistakable BOY charm to them.
She took his hand, and gave it a friendly shake, before laughing at his comments, "Well thank you Legend."
Taking her hand in his large one, Colt shook it firmly.
"You are very welcome. It is quite nice to see someone accept criticism. Now remember what I said, hair combs and confidence."
Selena nodded. "Criticism is the only way you can really tell how to do better," Selena shrugged. She took the last part to heart though. "I'll remember that," Selena smiled.

"Have a go." She nodded, "We'll see if you're really related to me, or if you're adopted." Hehehe.
Brody watched her bestie walk off with a frown. She knew what the girl had gone off; because something that Evolette had said. She had warned her though, and Brody took everything that her cousin said with a pinch of salt. She watched her walk off sadly, before turning back to her friend. "Of course I'll be a natural." She smirked, because she was totally good at everything.
She turned to watch the runway, smiling, because she knew she belonged up there, even if it wasn't really her top carer. Journalism was that, but modelling would be nice too. "Oh you know I'm related to you McKenna." The Blonde grinned, before she approached the photographer. "Hey...." She smiled at him, glancing up at the run way again.

He raised his brow as she gave him a once over and wondered if she was doing it in general, or in some kind of way to look down on him. But it didn't really matter and he was sure that she was mostly here to show off her modeling than to start anything with him.
"I don't know. I's just a... surprise to see you." Just not a really present one. But he wasn't going to say anything like that seeing as she was Brody's cousin. "How's modeling going for you?" Obviously amazing judging by her attitude. But it was polite to ask.
