I came back from holidays a few days ago so it's well time I answered this questionnaire ! Thanks @xheartswornx and @r_girardi for tagging me <3
1) Introduce yourself:
I'm Ayah, french staff photographer from France ! I'm 29, I'm an introvert intersectional feminist and that's pretty much all you need to know about me haha
2) Now that we've met, tell us about one hobby that really interests you:
I love music, I used to play a liiil bit of drums and violin and love to discover new artists. I spend my days listening to music and wish I could really play or sing but don't have the fiber nor discipline.
3) Switching topics; Space travel or time travel ?
Both.
4) You're obviously making men/women swoon everywhere you go, but tell us what your true power is to winning over a lover (or fans) ?
Dk, probs my personality
5) What turns you on about your current partner or would flip the love switch on if you were looking ?
I love genuinely good and nice people. Shared values, humor and culture too.
6) So, are you looking for a partner ?
Nup, found my one :)
7) We're going to go Salt-N-Pepa here, so let's talk about sex, baby. Are you a wild child or more traditionally romantic ?
Traditionally romantic
8) Tacos or pizza ?
Both
9) Beer or wine ?
I barely drink but my heart will always go to a good red wine.
10) Breakfast for dinner or dinner for breakfast ?
Def breakfast for diner ! I used to eat it sometimes with my mum in high school and my uni mates thought I was weird for having cereals for diner haha
11) Sex playlist: Marvin Gaye or Lil Wayne (genre, not necessarily either mentioned artist) ?
Marvin Gaye I'd say, but I do have a sex playlist on Spotify (that works for SG shootings too, ask my girls :D) including songs from Tricky, Nine Inch Nails, The Cure, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Pixies, Goldfrapp and quiiite a few others !
12) Slow dance or twerk ?
Again, why not both ?
13) How often do you find yourself smiling each day ?
Everyday thanks to my partner, friends and the power of memes and twitter
14) Tell us about a not so hidden talent (ex: singing, dancing, grafitti art, looking amazing, etc) :
I can draw and cook pretty decently.
15) It's karaoke night. What's your go to song ?
Anything by Tears For Fears
16) Favorite color combination:
My fav colors are Autumn ones so teal, mustard, rust, emerald, burgundy, you get the idea !
17) Name a photographer (on SG) that is on point this year and only making their way up.
Def @caustix and @penny ! But tbf I'm always impressed by our photogs, they should get more credit for their amazing work and dedication, I admire so many of them !
18) Close your eyes and name the first model that comes into view :
@mimo ! I have the biggest crush on her and hope we'll get to work together soon !
19) Worst scar (emotional or physical) if it's not too upsetting to discuss ?
Something way too personal to discuss publicly.
20) Favorite tattoo of yours?
I love them all equally !
21) You are an inspiration to members, models, and photographers alike. You give more to your community than you realize. What is one thing you would say to someone that aspires to reach as high as you in their life?
Trust in yourself and your capabilities and I think the most important thing is to surround yourself with a trusthworthy support system. I gained confidence and started to thrive when I met the right people. Real friends empower you, they don't use you or lie or trashtalk you behind your back. They help you become the best version of yourself and it's an equivalent exchange. Also stay true to yourself and your values and don't let anybody diminish you or make you doubt yourself.
22) Biggest weakness ?
Self confidence but I'm working on it.
23) Biggest strength ?
Stubbornness. Try me, I won't cave.
24) Soft or bruised lips ? Are you a gentle kisser or intensely passionate enough to draw a little blood ?
Both !
25) Tag at least 5 people you think should take this questionnaire :
@wilhelmine, @aeterna, @rika, @celine, @espiona but feel free to do it too of course !
