Confession #6: I Don’t Travel Light.
This confession starts out with my last car, I keep everything in my car at all times (so now you can say you know someone that travels daily with a kitchenaid mixer in their trunk).
Confession #5: Well That’s Awkward…
While this confession is not my own, it’s still directly related to my line of work. I will mention no names to preserve the innocent. A styling assistant shared with me her story of shopping for a job.
Confession #4: Fact: I Really Do Love Coconuts.
I needed to be a coconut cracking master, which up until this job, I was not. So after much research, I figured out that I needed a machete.
Confession #3: I Promise, I Am Not A Serial Killer.
A couple years ago, when I lived in an apartment by myself, I remember a time when I was really afraid of my neighbors knocking on my door at the most inopportune moment. I feared that they would call the cops and I would get locked up or get placed on a psych hold.
Confession #2: This Job Makes Me Do Weird Things.
I sometimes have these moments, where I actually double-over because my stomach hurts from laughing so hard at myself. Unfortunately - maybe fortunately, for this confession, at least - there's no photographic evidence.
Confession #1: Creative Explanations 101
So, as you’ve already read, I’m a professional food stylist. I make food look great. It’s what I do. I read another food stylist bio once and she said she’s “a makeup artist for the hamburger," (brilliant right?!)... I wish I came up with that line.
