I am 34 years old and LOVIN it!! My age has hindered me once or twice in the past, but it doesn't stop me one bit!! About a year ago, I was talking with a very well known photographer and we were making plans to do some shoots. Almost all the plans were arranged, except for the flight itinerary. His last question to me was... "Can you email me your ID for proof of age?" Of course, I emailed him a copy of my drivers license and he immediately called me up. He said, "Vanilla, there seems to be an error on your license, it shows that you were born in 1970." I explained to him that it wasn't an error at all, and in fact I was born in 1970. He hesitated and then told me that he could never shoot me because I was way too old. However, I was young enough five minutes prior. After laughing at him, I basically told him to fuck off. Apparently, a number does have a lot of pull to some in this biz... and that's ok, I knew that getting into it. Typically people are surprised and impressed with my age, but unfortunately, there are a couple asses left in the world!
Here's another pic of my old self:
