My mom was a photographer and whenever they needed a baby for a modelling job, she'd stick me in front of the camera. That's how it started.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Yeah, I kind of grew up in front of the camera: I started modeling when I was two.
My first modeling job was Gap, and my first time in front of the camera was for a Soda Pop Girls commercial - it's one of those Bratz dolls, Barbie dolls... one of those.
I got a camera when I was nine years old and it wasn't until I was a model that I realized you could be a photographer for a job.
I was an only child, and my mom threw me into some modeling classes to get me out of my shell.
Aside from my modelling, by the early Nineties I was also starting to work as a photographer, which I loved.
Modeling is always something I've really admired because I've seen my mum and sister do it.
When I was young, I used to tell my mum that she had to get me on the TV, but then modelling just sort of happened.
My dad was actually against me being a photographer. He thought it was a dead-end job and that you end up doing baby pictures and weddings.
I met a lot of young girls modelling and they were like, 'Oh, I'm running around town and people are taking my picture', while I was saving receipts and learning how to be self-employed.
At 24, I took time off to have a baby, and ever since, I have been juggling modelling with motherhood.
