Tomorrow is an exciting day. My oldest son Johnathan has an audition at a local talent management agency here in town. It’s the same one responsible for casting Napoleon Dynamite, High School Musical, Ocean’s 13, and a slew of other Disney films, so I’m pretty confident in their business.
He saw a casting call on Craigslist so he called them up and has an appointment tomorrow. They said to bring in 4 photographs, but they didn’t have to be professional head shots. We have no idea what we are doing, but we snapped about 400 shots of him today and these 4 made the cut.

He’s talked about being an actor on and off since about 9th grade, so I wasn’t too surprised when he wanted to give this a shot. And hell, you only live once. I think this will be a good experience for him.

And he’s out nothing for trying. I am keeping my finger and toes crossed for him.

Good luck, Jonathan! Btw, Julie, were the Baldwins in town in the year before his birth? Because he has that look. Might have rubbed off.

Great shots, Julie! My son did the same when he was 15 and ended up with a few great modeling jobs, lots of ‘extra’ work and gained a lot of confidence from the experience. Best of luck!
