Drew Barrymore has made her debut as a fashion photographer with a photoshoot starring the Descendants' Shailene Woodley.

The 50 First Dates star was asked to shoot a style spread for Vs. magazine and jumped at the chance to show off her camera skills after taking photography up as a hobby years ago.

I just thought, 'God, what if I suck or what if they're not good enough or what if they're disappointed?'

She tells U.S. talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, "I've actually been doing it for like 12 years. In 2000 I got given a camera for my birthday actually, a Pentax K1000.

"It's like a student cam - you have to do everythingmanually. I just fell in love with it and I started shooting for 10 years, but it's all candids and amateur. "Recently I've been lucky enough to get work as a photographer.

"When I first started shooting, I felt really sick because I've never had to turnmy photographs over to an editor.

"I just thought, 'God, what if I suck or what if they're not good enough or what if they're disappointed?' "And in typical fashion, I just sort of think, like, you know what?

"If you can't do something, figure it out. Learn it. And I just made myself super sick, I did a lot of homework and I figured it out".

The actress picked 20-year-old Woodley to pose for the first of a three-part editorial for Vs. entitled Drew's Muses, as it focuses on the young Hollywood talents who inspire her.

Barrymore's shot of a topless Woodley gazing over her shoulder graces the latest issue of the publication.
