This morning I slipped on my new spaghetti strap metallic dress with satin trim and a high waisted silver belt and black material to tie as a bow on my back. I used minimal makeup: Blue glitter and mascara with natural hair.

ST came early and we headed to Wilder Ranch, near Aptos. It's a place I've never been but really glad we went there to do the modeling shoot because it was so gorgeous and there were a variety of backdrops. I started off leaning against the fences and having green and farm pastures then as we continued walking, it turned into cliffs, lively waves and beautiful ocean.

Once again ST didn't give me any direction so I tried my best to move around a lot, give different looks and show many adjectives: playful, sultry, smiley, sexxy, serious. ST complimented me a bunch, saying when I move it's very graceful and sensual. He also expressed that I was his favorite model to work with because it seems like I have no bad angle and I give a lot of expressions.

We spent much of the morning modeling and I was usually the one to pick places where it'd be good to stop and take photos. I have an extremely keen eye for aesthetics and when we first started out it was a bit chilly but I was able to still model without a jacket then it grew warmer so it wasn't a problem. Also in the beginning the sun was so bright so it was a bit difficult to capture me, but as we walked along the light became softer and easier to manage.

After modeling, we went to Santa Cruz Diner where we got Vietnamese Spring Rolls which are so delicious and so healthy. They also come with an amazing peanut sauce so I enjoyed that and also ordered a cheese, onion, chicken, pepper crepe with fries. Everything was very good.

I had a great time today. I always find modeling to be so natural, so fun, so rewarding. It makes me feel more beautiful, more confident, more lovely. Also, Wilder Ranch turned out to be a gorgeous location of rustic, dramatic, and just pure nature-y beauty.
