Where are you from? Where are you based now and do you travel for shoots?
I am born and raised in Zeeland, The Netherlands. At the moment I am based in Rotterdam. I don’t travel fulltime for shoots, but every now and then, and I am definitely planning to do more traveling.
Who or what inspired you to become a model?
Modeling just came on my path and I followed that path. It was the best choice ever! The photographers and other models that I have worked with or follow on social media inspire me every day.
How and when did you start modeling?
I started modeling in 2018. All because a photographer asked me to shoot with him trough a message on Instagram.
What type of modeling do you enjoy the most?
I love to do different things, outdoor, art, fashion, nude and erotic shoots. I find doing different shoots the most interesting. It is my goal to be a good model for different types of content.
What do you look for when deciding to work with a photographer?
I check if he has references from other models, does he have an online portfolio/website or other media so that I can see his work. Also, how is the conversation, does he answer respectfully and professionally? Most of all, I always trust my instinct.
Which models or other artists currently inspire you?
A lot of people inspire me, but, two of the models that inspire me the most are Aja Jane, and Quinn Linden!
What would be your dream shoot?
My dream shoot, that is a secret but I have more ideas… I would love to have an old fashion themed shoot. Also, I would love to be in a waterfall or swamp while wearing a beautiful see-through long dress. Shooting in the desert, a shoot with a snake of big butterfly’s. I have so many concepts in mind that I think I will never be done modeling.
How important is social media in your success?
For me, Instagram is very important. I get a lot of shoot offers through there but because of the new algorithm, it is more and more difficult for models. And I am so happy that I have a Model Mayhem account that I can show my portfolio, upload travel notices, and castings. It’s great to meet photographers around the world. I also love that you can see and leave references.
What else do you like to do outside of modeling?
I teach different dance classes, dance performances and performance art.
What’s the best career advice you can give to new models?
Follow your dreams, work hard, and trust your instincts. Do your best every time and take the time to learn to your craft, and don’t forget to enjoy it!
