I'm a model. You know what I mean ...

I am entering the Torrid model search contest this year, along with Amy and my friend, Jenny. Torrid is a store for plus size women and they use all plus size models (you can't even enter the contest if you're smaller than a size 12). Every year, they hold a contest where they accept pictures from women all over the country, and the winners (eight were chosen from the last contest) model clothing and accessories for the store's website. I've decided to post some pictures here, so people can vote on their favorite. They're all similar, but not exactly alike, and some are the same picture twice, the 2nd with the image cropped. Just leave a comment with the number of the picture you like the best. I may be doing another photo shoot later this week to have more to choose from, so you might get to vote again!

They are all pretty, but something about the camera angle makes you look totally Latina! Your eyes, I think ;)

My favourites are 2 and 6. It looks like your fist is clenched in a few of them...I don't know much about photography, but I think it would like nicer (more relaxed) if your hands weren't in fists :)

I like #7. It is brighter than the rest of the photos, and shows off your Torrid clothes. But I definitely think you should do more photos because you weren't smiling very big like you do in your other pics. Either way I think #7 is the best and you're beautiful!!

I forgot to say in the post that my friend, Shelley, took the pictures. Thanks, Shelley!

Hey Ellen! Sorry it took me a while to respond, I am getting reay for my parents to come out east to visit. I like 1,2 and 6. After looking at the Torrid website, quite a few of the pics are very smiley...so I def think that you should include at least one of your beautiful smile! Hope you are well and having fun with all of this!
