ellismummy - thats superb so quick hope ours come soon!

kerryarron · 23/10/2006 19:21

littlemadam - what is your ds wearing in his Mothercare pics? I know you have probably already said but I am too lazy to read through lol! My local MC has just been re-decorated and out the front are two massive pictures, one of a blonde girl and leaves and the other is a boy - maybe it's your ds?

Have you seen his pics yet?

kerryarron · 23/10/2006 19:22

Just read your post

3lambs · 23/10/2006 19:41

Julie, thats exciting news,a commercial!! good luck for that
mrsratty, am going to mk on thurs will check out the toy dept-if they have one!
Tinkerbel5, really nice meeting you and your lo today, she is really gorgeous. How were your photos?? Just looked thru mine,bit dissapointed as i said to you ds froze a bit, has an un natural smile in quite a few!! its funny cos he's so not shy normally, maybe modellings just not for him

julie4travel · 23/10/2006 19:49

3lambs - is it hard copy the photos from the shoot then instead of cd rom or do you get the choice? i wouldn't worry if he froze after a couple he will get used to it - it was his first one wasn't it? my ds who normally is good at this sort of thing (photo wise) photos from the british isles thing weren't brilliant at all, i would say literally one good one out of the lot took! he for some reason had these photos of a sort of grimace instead of a smile! strange hope thurs are better than those!

julie4travel · 23/10/2006 19:54

3lambs - forgot to say was in kids world this afternoon as daren't risk rain at the butterfly farm and places like that! it was heaving and so noisy, could hardly hear myself think when the b and b call came through

3lambs · 23/10/2006 20:07

they put the photos onto a disc for you to take away with you. The photographer was really nice but ds just seemed unsure, your right hopefully he'll get more used to it. And i guess at shoots theres more things going on to engage them. oh well we'll see
it was funny cos ds1 came too and they wanted some photos of him !! I never thought he would be into it as he actually is the shy one!! but he was a right old poser, so got some nice pics of him instead!!

Tinkerbel5 · 23/10/2006 20:31

Julie fab news on the casting, so pleased for your lo.

3lambs DD's pic were lovely, your lo will get used to having his photos taken the more castings/jobs he does, and they will probably only need 1 of him in the model book and will choose the best one. You DS1 might like to model sounds like he did ok, you could even just concentrate doing it with DS1 and defer F for a year or so x

julie4travel · 23/10/2006 20:33

3lambs- superb so are b and b taking ds1 on then? the reason i took my dd to a couple of unpaid shoots was to sort of prepare her for the ts shoot, so i am glad i did that as she was almost a pro yesterday (only joking!) you never know you could be backwards and forwards to london with them both!

3lambs · 23/10/2006 20:35

julie i know, its always rammed in the holidays!!
Loads of luck for tomorrow, fingers crossed he gets it

julie4travel · 23/10/2006 20:35

3lambs do you know who the photographer was?

thanks tink seems we have waited so long for a casting. last one was in aug when he couldn't go as it was my dds birthday party (that was witha different agent before joining b and b)

3lambs · 23/10/2006 20:39

No i don't know his name, tink might. Not sure if we'll persue it with ds1 tho he did enjoy it today.

Tinkerbel5 · 23/10/2006 20:43

no I dont know the photographers name, I have already looked at DD's photos, have just put the disc in again and even it says its downloading the photos im getting a blank page

mimi1uk · 23/10/2006 20:48

julie i hope ur ds gets the job tomorrow, fingers and toes crossed

julie4travel · 23/10/2006 20:49

oh no tink hope you get them working soon! unless they didn't copy to disc correctly?

was it just head shots they did or moving ones aswell. i loved my ds photos last year with sw they had jumping ones and loads of in motion ones. def the best i have had for him!

julie4travel · 23/10/2006 20:51

cheers mimi

fingers crossed your ds picture will get used, i am sure he will come up trumps 4 u!

Tinkerbel5 · 23/10/2006 21:01

Just put the cd in the DVD and the photos are there

Julie they are head and shoulder shots, when your LO has his done take bright t.shirts with you (red/blue) etc

yackertyyack · 23/10/2006 21:01

Lanis - we are on wednesday now! Hope little lani does you proud! Let us now how you get on...how is the baby belly coming along???
Mimi - I am sure that they will have got the shots they are after... judgeing from his burberry pics he is a pro!!
Shall - we are first thing wed and have been told a couple of hours shoot so if we are still around at 3 (i am hoping not in a nice way!!!! ) I will look out for you.
Julie - good luck!
Littlemadam - Glad you are getting a poster and DS was pleased...hopefully you will be returning the favour for me in jan!!!!

mimi1uk · 23/10/2006 21:05

julie, i know they were crappy to be honest, and im glad i know that, i saw 90% of them and was not impressed, he is just going through a stage and im sure he will pop out of it!, its really enjoyable when u have fun with it , but when its not enjoyable there is not too much point really, he is a teething monster at the moment, and not really into it, think i need a chaperone for the next casting as i cannot be bothered lol

julie4travel · 23/10/2006 21:06

tink - i thought they said no bright colours! i know they said white background so pref not a white shirt!

mimi1uk · 23/10/2006 21:08

all the guys that was there this morning where in and out within about an hour, everyone this morning was from kids that i saw as well, think it was so mad riley and his freind was chosen to do a shoot together,
yacks riley loved it all when he did burberry not any more he is the master of daggers and evils looks, he is like something from lil britian who are u looking at, !!!!!!!!!

julie4travel · 23/10/2006 21:09

mimi- a chaperone sounds tempting for me at the moment ! and mine are being good - or am i being lazy

logging off now, wont be on till tommorow nt-

good luck all

mimi1uk · 23/10/2006 21:14

lol at the chaperone, ive told my best friend its her job now, dont think she will be giving up her day job, i think its all great fun , but now riley is not enjoying it nor am i, hopefully it will change again kids said many babies go through a akward stage at the age of 18 months / 2 years and that he is probably having it early, or i just have longer of it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yackertyyack · 23/10/2006 21:16

Mimi....my ds is a teething trantrum monster too so your not alone! bless em!!

ellesmum · 23/10/2006 21:18

mimi - im sure he will get better as he gets older, ooh getting a chaporone sounds tempting!
