Go with someone who you are very comfortable with and discuss it with them. It often helps in introvert to hang out with a good friend who is an extrovert and they stick together. Then you can stand there and contribute to conversations at your own pace without feeling pressure.

@joesand99 Its a 2 day photography shoot and my friend is the photographer. They'll be models there 😅 I'm just really insecure

@Aidan oh fun...so you have a friend, don't be insecure. I bet some of the models are nice and some are real jerks. Just remember the jerks are their own worst enemy. Relax and have fun.

@joesand99 Will attempt

@Aidan Have a safety outlet. Pick up your phone and walk away saying I have to take this if you get uncomfortable. Then walk away. Recover, get your courage up and go back in.
