Calista is on the Uniqlo website:
Yep, those are her hands. :) I only know because I watched them take the pictures. Uniqlo really reminds me of the Japanese version on Old Navy.
They didn't use very many of her pictures, but that is ok, she still got paid. This modeling job paid more than most so I was happy to do it. The actual photo shoot was a struggle for Calista. They wanted her sleeping, and she was not having that. I tried for over an hour to get her to fall asleep. Then they took a couple pictures and tried to repose her and she woke up screaming. It was pretty horrible for her. The whole thing was frustrating because if she did a good job and they liked her pictures then they were going to pay her twice as much money. Two-year-olds don't care about money though. I'll have to remind her of this when she is older and wants more money in her college fund.
One reason this job was great was that Beatrix got to be the stand by model. So she got paid just for showing up, and she was going to show up anyway because Calista was getting her pictures taken. So it was pretty lucky for her.
I was hoping to get some sort of print version of Calista's pictures to save for her, but it looks like these will only be used online. So someday I'll probably take her on another job. My goal was to get something for each of them to save kind of as a souvenir to remind them that we lived in Japan.
