"The most difficult photo shoot was my very first one! I was a touch overwhelmed by the lights, all of the people involved, and the fast direction that was coming my way. Some poses felt weird and awkward, but I taught myself to get out of my head and trust the process."

"My most difficult photo shoot I have done was an athletic wear campaign. I was in constant motion. Jumping on a trampoline, running, and lifting free weights. It's a challenge to keep your face strong while managing the range of motion at the same time. Here are some shots from this campaign."

This question requires you to think back to a time when you were challenged and tested as a model. When you answer this question, be sure to show the interviewer a shot from that particular shoot. Bring the experience to life for the interviewer.

"My most difficult photo shoot was for a print ad, where I had to have a dog in my lap. I am deathly allergic to dogs, so the biggest challenge was to be engaged, and not allow my watery eyes or sneezes to get in the way of the shoot. Benadryl was my friend that day! The client was very pleased with my work and dedication."
