       Why do you like the model/fashion world?                any why?
       I have always had a huge passion in the fashion         Hmmm… This is a difficult one now as there are so
       and modelling industry ever since I was a child. It     many extremely talented photographers out there
       had always been a dream of mine.                        worldwide! I think if I really had to name a few I

       heels I feel like I’m stepping into the most powerful   ther  great  photographers  who  catches  my  eye,
       woman alive.                                            they again have both different yet creative styles

       I adore latex. I love the fact it is different to other  love to work with Andrew Macdonald again as his
       fashions.  It  stands  out,  screams  a  lavishness     ideas are second to none and his presence makes
       about it. It looks and feels fantastic. I don’t think   it so great to work with.
       there are enough words in the dictionary to des-
       cribe the love I have for this material.                Do you think the use of Photoshop has distorted
                                                               reality?
       Is it easy to stand out in this world, or is everything  Not entirely. I think it really does depend on what
       already invented?                                       the photo is used for and what the image is trying
       Yes, absolutely! There are a lot of things that are     to portray. Coming from an artistic background
       already invented in this world but not everything       myself I think in some respects it can benefit a

       stand out and be unique to others.                      much at all.


       What do you prefer: a normal photoshoot or some-        Are you an exhibitionist?  Do you like it?  Thou-

       Alternative all the way! As mentioned in the pre-       Of course, I wouldn’t model if I didn’t want the

       we set our minds to it. Too many people strive to       ways be yourself and not how society expects you
       look or be someone else, I strive to be me. I do not    to look like. Strive to look and be you.
       follow in others footprints, I create my own.
                                                               What wouldn’t you do even if you were paid all the

       artistic nature. I was born with this inside of me.     the world that money cannot buy.
