ANNABELLE KATHERINE PIERCE, SEVENTEEN, PAPARAZZI - PHOTOGRAPHER, STRAIGHT, STUBBORN Alright this here is Miss Annabelle Pierce, but she likes to just go by Anna. She is your typical American teenager, well except for the fact she is super smart and graduated high school at only sixteen! Well she didn’t necessarily graduate she received enough credits so she was ready to graduate by taking extra classes both during school as well as in the summer. Yeah, she's smart. She is an army brat and has lived all over the country with her mom who was a writer Needless to say she was never very popular unless someone needed help with something for school. She didn’t mind though because she knew she’d most likely have to move again in a few months anyway. She never had anywhere she really felt at home at. She took some pre-graduation classes for college but really didn't feel it so she moved to L.A. Anna always had a passion for art and photography and was pretty good at it. For her tenth birthday her dad was still on leave and had the chance to celebrate it with her. He had gotten her her very first camera. It was her favorite birthday present she had ever received because her father was there to be the one to actually give it to her. So that’s when she had really gotten into the photography scene. With a little help from her mom she managed to get a job on a team of paparazzi covering a band tour all over the country. There was no way Anna was going to pass this opportunity up. This is considered to be her ''test run'' in this line of work. Her mother wasn't happy about her daughter touring the country with a bunch of strangers but she knew her daughter would be unhappy otherwise. Anna is a bit shy but not in the typical 'i don't talk to anyone' way. She more or less isn't keen on letting people in. This of course is a direct result of her moving around her whole life time. She can make small chat and has no problem asking people about their lives but any question someone asks her she tends to somehow flip the question back on them. Anna see no reason for people to be curious about her life or why she should have to tell anyone about her she is doing; happy, sad, miserable and so on. She is a stubborn little girl too. Back when her father claimed the military not to really be his career every time he had a chance to come back to visit his family he promised her that’d he’d be done soon and they could be a real family again. It took till she was about fifteen to realize that he was never coming back, not permanently. Anna and her father became even more distant after that. They hardly even speak these days even when he comes to visit. She refuses to give in she felt too betrayed. She doesn’t give into people easily. They really have to work to gain her trust. She is a sweet heart though once you get past all her walls. She can be a bit conceited though. She doesn’t try to be it just comes out that way and she really just can’t stand being proved wrong. She is also a bit of a perfectionist. When people say that normally it sounds like a pretty good thing and it is…most of the time. Sometimes it can get out of hand. She is one of those people who are always honest even when it’d be easier to lie. She also gives pretty good advice although she has a hard time using it in her own life. When Anna gave up college to become a photographer being in the paparazzi was not even close to what she had in mind. She wasn’t one of those teens that were all into the celebrities. Like yes she knew them but she didn’t really care much about their lives. Anna feels working for the paparazzi is a little demeaning to her but everyone has to start somewhere. She also gets away from “home” and she will still be touring when her father goes to visit. Anna’s mother didn’t tell her dad about her new job, she knew Anna would wish for him not to know at least till things became more permanent. Right now she is just going to work as hard as she can here to be able to afford a place back in L.A. then figure out a better plan to get farther with her photography. FIXX, FIFTEEN, PM |
