Cameron
Hamilton,
Season
1

As
for
how
the
very
first
season
of

Love
Is
Blind
was
cast,
well,
it
doesn’t
sound
like
the
process
was
all
that
different.
In
fact,

Cameron
says
the
casting
team
reached
out
to
both
him
and
his
eventual
wife


Lauren
Speed-Hamilton.

 “For
me,
it
came
in
the
form
of
a
text
message,”
the
data
scientist
shared
on
the

couple’s
Youtube
channel.
“I
ignored
the
text
message
at
first.
I
thought
it
was
kind
of
shady.
Two
weeks
later,
I
get
a
voicemail
from
casting.
I
call
them
back.
They
tell
me
about
the
premise
of
the
show.” 

After
hearing
the
rundown,
Cameron
continued,
he
initially
thought,
“Who
could
be
crazy
enough
to
propose
to
someone
after
talking
to
them
for
two
weeks
through
a
wall?
Obviously,
that
was
me.” 

But
the
more
he
learned
about
the
series,
the
more
interested
he
became. 

“At
first
it’s
like,
‘Ah,
I’ll
just
fill
out
the
casting
application
and
then
jump
through
the
hoops,’”
he
remembered.
“And
then
the
more
I
did
it,
the
more
I
was
getting
invested
in
the
show—to
the
point
where
I
felt
like
fate
was
really
pulling
me
for
the
show.
I
felt
like
something
was
really
telling
me
I
needed
to
do
this
show.”
