I am an ordinary
woman but I was born to do extraordinary things. Modeling allows me to express
myself in a way that I wasn't allowed when growing up. Now I am comfortable to work through my
insecurities. My attitude has changed. I
see my lips, eyes, and long legs as an assets and not a liability. At times I second guess myself, but I'm
working to allow myself to let my talent flows.
Modeling for
the" Carols Adams Foundation Strut 4 Domestic Violence Fashion Show" was
for me an eye opener. Many people came
together to support the cause and raised awareness for domestic violence. I met
a lot of new people, and applied what I learned in life in general to modeling.

The photo shoot I did in honor of the Black Panther party actually reflects my believe that If you want something you should definitely stay positive and work hard to make your dreams come true. That shoot actually stood for something big in black culture.
Trying to make the next set of photos better than the last ones I took to show that I am learning and growing is not easy but I am ready for the challenge. I love to express myself through photos and become someone else as well as get to model someone else’s creations and make their clothes the star.
|
I love to pose for photography looking different. Print modeling is what I like the most. I love to promote and to serve as a visual
aide for people who are creating works of art.
When people compliment me on my look and work, I get motivated and my
desire is to continue to grow up professionally.

Imperfectly Perfected hand made
designs by Tonya Nichols
|
I first found my
love for modeling and fashion design as a young girl by watching my mother.
After losing my mother in 1993, my passion for fashion and modeling became an
afterthought and I began to put all of my focus into my job and being the best
mother I could be to my 3 children. After having a near death experience and
having emergency surgery for a brain aneurism, my life took a change for the
better. With my mother as my inspiration and my children as my motivation, I
decided to go forward with this dream that my mother and I once shared
together. With my mother in mind, I created Imperfectly Perfected hand made
designs by Tonya Nichols in September 2015. I wanted my designs to be a
reflection of who my mother was as a woman. My mother was beautiful, strong,
confident and full of confidence. Imperfectly Perfected hand made designs by
Tonya Nichols is a line of high end fashion for women. It is a blend of
national as well as international cultures with an urban edge, making this line
of clothing eclectic, elegant and regal. All pieces are carefully thought out
and 100% hand sewn making each piece exclusive. The women that wear Imperfectly
Perfected hand made designs Tonya Nichols will not only feel beautiful,
powerful, regal and unique but will look the part as well. “We are Women and we
all have flaws, but this is how we were created, but..We are Strong, We are
Unique, We are Beautiful…..We Are Imperfectly Perfected!!!!!!!

I’m mist of Senegal and Ghana in West Africa. I always dream to be a supermodel, but I
never had parental support because of
traditional things. I started modeling
in secret, and my parents discovered it when I was
nominated miss vad of my city. Today my reason to pursue modeling is to
realize my dreams as become an international supermodel and be a model
for all children who let down their dreams because of parents or/ and tradition
influences. I strongly trust that Love
and belief are only things that can help to realize dream!

My name is Vanessa
Blaise, I am a very talent beautiful model with a large dreams. I was born in Haiti. My modeling journey started at The Rubens creation
School located in port au prince where I practiced the catwalk and the poses. Later, I moved to Miami just to pursue my
career. Now I have a job, I go to school
and continue modeling activities. Modeling is not easy.
It requires patience and accepting challenges that comes your way. To achieve your goal you need to develop your
skills and learn from others.
Living with a
Christian Guardians, you need to be strong and diplomatic when you talk about
your modeling aspirations. I don't have a
modeling agency but I wish to get one soon.
My modeling career is successful.
So far I did many fashion shows that gave me good exposures. I walked
for great designers and met new people with different culture backgrounds and that
is amazing. I was selected among the top
10 finalists at Summer face Competition of elements magazine. Also I had been featured in magazine book
with Modella Bella. I want to thanks Rose healvenrich for mentoring me in my debut. I thank also these amazing Designers: La belle couture and Classy lazy. Thanks to my Boyfriend (big supporter) who always
GPS the location of the venues to help me out when I don't even know the
locations and thanks to my family, supporters and friends.

My name is Malika I
have a passion for modeling and that has been burning inside since I was a
young girl growing up in Kingston, Jamaica. I came to the states when I was 13
years old, moving to the heart of Miami, Florida. Caught in the hustle of
paying bills and trying to make it, currently I’m working as a receptionist at
a nursing home. Though this job is rewarding caring for the elderly, I would,
however, rather be walking the runway or posing for the camera. Presently, I’m
working hard to take my modeling career to the next level. My main interest is
fashion shoots, runway and commercial; however I am open to other aspects of
modeling. I am prepared to travel anywhere in the world to pursue my passion; I
take serious all job opportunities, provided that my travelling expenses
consider that I am working on a receptionist’s budget. No challenge is too big,
or assignment is too small for me.

Growing up, I used to
get teased about how big my eyes were. But
once I started modeling, that soon changed. I was getting a lot of praise and
compliments about my eyes. Winning my
first runway show and modeling competition for Nzuri Top Natural Model has
boosted my confidence a lot. It was a confirmation that I could live my dreams. I am able to express myself artistically whether
by using makeup or clothing and becoming anything I want. I like proving to people
that I am more that what is on the surface.
The challenging thing
about the modeling industry especially for me is the fact that I'm what you
would call a "petite model." Meaning I don't fit the requirement of a
High Fashion model which has to be 5'7 and up. I take that with a grain of salt
and don't let that stop me from doing my passion. I am a proud black woman with the goal of
changing what is considered beautiful in this society and helping my people in
any way I can.

Walking in the Beach
Bling Summer Show was so amazing because I got to share the experience with my
son as he walked for the first time. As I was living my dream, my children were
able to live theirs with me. I realize
that Dreams do become Reality no matter what hardships you come across. Have
faith, work hard, be dedicated, consistent and don’t be afraid to take the
first step towards your dream. You never know what the future holds if you
actually try and never give up. Modeling
allows me to be a real life positive role model. There are so many faces out
that are leading our youth astray. I’m able to show that it's ok to have
morals, respect yourself and others. It's actually Cool and rewarding to Love
and help your fellow man. For me the
most challenging thing about modeling is being disciplined in diet and working
out. I must remind myself of what I’m doing and why I’m doing it.

I was born and raised
in Raleigh, NC where I currently reside. I have been modeling for 5 years and I
am 22 years old. Modeling is a huge
industry and becoming a model does not happen overnight. There are many obstacles that one has to
overcome. I am as goofy and as clumsy as
the actual fictional character named Goofy, and I live to love. I love that
modeling allows me to express myself. I call it "my art". When I am on the runway, everything goes
blank and I am in my zone. I feel powerful and I am most happy in this moment.

My aunt moved home to
Pine Hill Alabama from Long Beach California, and I was given an opportunity in
modeling at age six. I realized I loved
it! It was a very small show at the local city hall, but I knew that I had a
zeal for it. She also was a cosmetologist, which also gave me my next love of
hair, makeup, and everything fashion. I knew I had a future in it, but I felt I
lost it after the deadly car accident we both were involved in and took her
life. However, many years later, that old passion resurfaced when I was chosen
to walk in a runway show at The House of Adrene. Meeting new people and the photo shoots is
what I like about modeling. In front of the camera, I'm an open book. I'm able
to express myself in a varieties of awkward poses and still feel confident and
beautiful. The feeling of becoming one with the photographer.
I'm just an ordinary girl from a very small
town with really big dreams to inspire and encourage others to believe in
themselves and never give up hope. Also that I'm a wife of a very supporting
husband, a mother of two beautiful children, and I love life. I may not be where I want to be in this
present, but definitely have faith that my future holds something greater!
The most challenging
things about modeling; is the oversimplified image of a particular person that
limits one of their potential. I think age, height, and size shouldn't matter.
However, as long as one can go beyond what is stipulated by a role or job then
the stereotypes should be overlooked. What
I'm mostly complimented on is my natural beauty, my eyes, lips, and natural
hair.

I love Shpongle. Simon
Posford is my hero. I would not be doing what I do if I had never come across
his music or met him. I heard "Nothing Is Something Worth Doing"
during Shpongle live in 2010 and it made me change my whole way of life. I had
this vision of Shpongle and my part in it and from that moment on I went after
it. Everything you see me do, whether it's modeling or dance or painting it's
all based off that split second vision. I
was body painted by Matteo Arfanotti who was once World Body paint Champion. I
loved that modeling experience most because watching him paint was mesmerizing.
In a time where black
women are fighting to be seen as equals, I've gotten to meet and talk to some
amazing artists in all media from fashion to art to music to performing arts
and it's because people are open to seeing me inhabit a space. I like that people want to work with me. Everything about being a model is
challenging. When someone says "model" it's easy to think of Linda
Evangelista or Naomi Campbell. There's a perception of the high fashion agency
model, but no one really thinks of art models or illustration models. There's a
large part of the spectrum in the industry that gets ignored, but we all play
our part. It's difficult being a model of color because you have to be able to
hear "the concept wasn't envisioned for a model of color" and keep
trying. I've done jobs where the client reshot something to edit me out. You
just develop a thick skin. My Instagram is @corderosaamada and my Facebook is: https://www.facebook.com/vibemytribe/

I am full of LIFE on
the runway. I practice day and night to
obtain a signature walk so flawless, so whimsical yet polished, undeniably
enticing. When I did.....the rest I leave on the runway. The Atlantic City fashion week 2012 was my best
experience ever in modeling. Everything was amazing, from the runway setup over
the fountain, the amazing MUAs, Hairstylists and crazy models. Not to mention
my stay at one of the best hotels with a huge night life and casino at my
fingertips.
More than anything in
the world, I live to make others feel good about themselves. Ultimately I
aspire to have my own model management business. Seeking and aiding all new
comers to this harsh industry. Sometimes without knowing we alter ourselves to
please others. I want to change that. Besides
my obsession with the fashion aspect, I adore meeting new people. The good, the
bad, the shallow and the downright evil. I feel there's something to take from
them all. As I learn who I am, I realize that I come across those struggling
with tasks I've already conquered. It feels amazing to be that insight to their
solution.
The most difficult
part about modeling to me has to be, remaining true to your identity. Again,
without knowing we alter ourselves to appease others. I know that being a model
means to be versatile but I've watched so many lose themselves completely. I
refuse to be that model. I want to forever and always remain Cavi Ande. Sassy,
curvy, dark and beautiful inside and out.

My name is Tina Richardson and I have been modeling for 3
years now. I'm a published print model
and I have been featured in numerous publications stateside and international. My biggest accomplishment as a plus-size model
who had only 5 months of modeling experience is making the Front Cover of
Midwest Black Hair Magazine November 2012 Issue. Since then I have been a
featured model for Midwest Black Hair Magazine. Standing at 5' 5 ", I have
grace the Front Cover, Back Cover, Inside Cover, and made Centerfold for
Midwest Black Hair Magazine and featured on ad campaigns for Midwest Black Hair
Magazine. I have also been featured in numerous print publications, featured on
websites, cosmetics ads, blog spots, and recently did an advertisement photo
shoot for SONIC Drive-In Fast Food Restaurant.
I enjoy getting my makeup done professionally and I love
to look like a different person. I love
being a chameleon because no one ever knows what I will look like. On top of
that, being a model is like being an actor. You are always playing a different
role when you are doing a photo shoot.
My only challenge is that I’m not with a modeling agency, so I have to
look for my own castings, photographers, hairstylists, and make-up artists to
work with. I have to do my own promoting, advertising, and marketing. I’m very thankful for having my own wardrobe
stylist and hairstylist which is important. When I lived in Kansas, I had my own
Professional Makeup Artist and her name is Mieisha Musawwir who is one of the
best makeup artists that I have worked with in the industry. As a model, it is important to work with a
great makeup artist especially for your photo shoots.

I am a risk taker
and a free spirit in their purest forms. I am unafraid person. The thing I love most about modeling is the
freedom to create and inspire. The fact
that a moment can be captured in 15 different ways in the span of a few seconds
excites me. The most challenging thing about modeling to me is portraying
EXACTLY what you want to, usually 10 to 50 shots can be produced to convey one
emotion. The repetition is the most challenging to me because I like to keep it
moving. Most people compliment me on my hair, lips, waist and legs.
I have a few
favorite modeling experiences. One was a dance inspired body paint shoot i did
with full body paint and my Pointe shoes. Another was a caution tape shoot I
did during rush hour in Columbus circle in NYC. Another was a project I worked on entitled "We
are Queens" inspired by African Queens in which I was chosen to portray
Queen Nefertiti. Lastly, another favorite of mine was a recent shoot I did just
for fun on the upper west side of the city featuring still motion shots.

My name is Rasmiyyah
Sahirah I am a Petite Model, Trained jazz/contemporary/ballet and hip hop
Dancer/Performer/Instructor and aspiring Actress. I am from a small resort
beach island in Ocean City New Jersey. Being
raised in a city with an average population of 7 thousand with only 2% African
American population has been an enlighten experience of growth. One of the
hardest struggles in growing up in a small town is understanding the best way
to adapt in such a racially split population. I am beating the odds in my city
so I will achieve greatness in this entertainment life and reach success. I
have learned that you must risk it all and must strive to be a success and
stand out from the rest. I know I will put my small island on the map with one
of my many entertaining talents in Dancing, Modeling and Acting. I love the
platform modeling gives me by expressing my artistic style and meeting
interesting people in the process.

My name is Cash Lane
I'm 23 years old. From Brooklyn NY, now residing in Jacksonville Florida. I
started dancing and have been since 13. I recently decided to take on the
challenge of modeling. The best experience in modeling is being able to express
myself. I love that I can be whoever I choose. I like for people to see different
sides of me. I know if I stay focused I can go far in this career. I get so
many compliments fire my smile and how comfortable I am in front of the camera. The most challenging in modeling is keeping
up with what's new but also staying healthy because in modeling you are judged
so much.

At my first cat walk,
I realized that modeling or fashion is really what I want to do. It was nerve
racking, the makeup, the switching and the changing outfits. I showcased 3 outfits that night and I was so
scared, my legs where shaking. By then I was already in line and just like that
I'm on the runway. I remember thinking "please don't fall, please don't
fall, stay steady" and just like that it was over. It was the longest
minute of my life but I loved it.
I am a humble and
devoted person who is a team player. People compliment me most on my eyes and
surprisingly enough my poise. No matter
how far I get I will never forget where I came from and who I'm doing this for.
Of course everyone does this for family. But I'm also doing modeling to benefit
and inspire our youth whom I believe is our future and open doors for more models,
designers, and artists who get over looked. Together we will make noise for the
east coast and show that hard work and dedication for a positive purpose does
make a difference. I'm trying to start a movement.
Trying to stay away from so
many delicious treats is very challenging because I struggle with self control
in trying to stay away from certain foods that may break my skin out like soda
or birthday cake. Having a healthy diet for a model is very important. Maintaining a good skin and weight. is a
small sacrifice but it's worth it. I may sneak a cupcake here and there from
time to time.

I've had dreams of
modeling from as early as age 5 but didn't begin working in the field until 2013
when I later was discovered. I am a 2012 graduate of Gray's Creek High School.
I am currently attending Fayetteville Technical Community College pursuing my
career in cosmetology. My hobbies include: studying fashion, shopping, doing
hair, and spending time with my loving family.
What I like about modeling is not only does it allow me to show my
creativeness through my pictures, my walk, postures, and etc, but it also
allows me to show off my best features that also include beautiful smile.
Although, I didn't come from a wealthy background; I'm
a hard worker and very confident person. My goals in life are not only to win
America's Next Top Model, become a Victoria's Secret Angel, but to simply be an
international super model. Being
published in Crush, Sweet Tart, and Pinup Magazines were my favorite modeling
experiences. However the most
challenging thing about modeling to me is shooting with partners.

Doing Baltimore
Fashion Week is unforgettable experience.
I had an opportunity to work with a lot of very ambitious designers and
the crew was great to work with. The production was phenomenal. Modeling has been my passion for a very long
time, and being on the ready is the best high of life for me. I enjoy the spot light I get for my 43' legs
and my long eyelashes. Meeting people
through networking and social events is great and modeling offers plenty of
these opportunities. My modeling
experiences include ripping the runway at MBFW WITH Anna Francesca, PLITZ NYFW
, Philadelphia Fashion Week. And MD Fashion Awards
The most challenging thing about modeling is the
amount of travel to do. I am the proof
mother of 3 beautiful daughters and I have to balance my duty and my passion. I am very ambitious and have had some major
challenges and setbacks but I am a warrior.

Jasmine metivier
was just a little girl from Brooklyn with a dream. She started modeling at the
tender age of 8 and didn't stop there despite the obstacles she encounter, she
continued to push further closer to her goals and dreams. As she was on
her journey she also found a love and passion for music and film. And
that was only the beginning.
At the age of 17 she got the honor

designer. Also she go the opportunity to star in a film as lead, that will be
Released in 2016. Also with her EPK arriving for the new year, with her
ambition and drive for success and the love and foundation she has it's not
telling what else she would be doing next.
Favorite quote - When your dreams
are so big you feel uncomfortable telling small minded people.

Q1: What is your favorite modeling
experience?
Out of the endless list of favorites, my ultimate
favorite modeling experience is definitely making the cover of Fashion Avenue
News Magazine's August 2014 issue. That one opportunity opened the door to
numerous opportunities in New York including signing with a New York model
management company, i-Fashion Management.
Q2: What do you want your audience to know
about you?
I am best known for my slender, versatile
physique and illuminated stance. My
appearance can transform from youthful to
androgynous to regal. In this industry, I am considered a commercial model but,
filled with the creativeness of a fashion model.
Friends and industry
professionals recognize me as the 'all-in-one' model as I have more traits than
modeling: I coach aspiring models on model techniques and runway; and I am also
a fashion blogger at Fashion Under 20.
Q3: What do you like about modeling?
One word: Entrepreneurship! The marketing, promoting, selling
the brand(s) or product(s) without little to no words - just, beauty,
confidence, and emotions.

My name is Kamilla
Stevens. I am a very generous individual
that enjoy helping others and also expressing myself through my style and
joyful personality. I like to make
others feel welcomed when they are in my presence. I am a very ambitious
and outgoing women that seeks any path within the fashion industry. I plan on
furthering my career within the
modeling field and also the fashion field. I always get compliments on my beauty and
also my kindness. People says that my eyes stand out a lot.
I love every moment of
modeling it helps express who you are through creativity and
passion. With
every project that I accomplish I start out with a mentality that is grateful
and also passionate. There is a lot of art within modeling and I enjoy showing
the world
many different ways to help make yourself standout and also be
unique. My most favorite modeling
experience was on top of a rooftop in New York City. It was a 16 story building
that I had shot on. I was totally excited. I do not regret any shoots I have
done thus far.
The challenging part about
modeling is that you cannot expect to go into this industry
thinking that you
will be paid for each project that you accomplish. Every part of modeling to me
is considered a job and also a passion. You must work your way towards gainingexposure and also paid work.

At the last Caribbean American Heritage Show, a 75 year old
lady and her husband waited
2 hours just to tell me they were my super
fans. That gesture stands out as my favorite
moment in my carrier. I want my audience
to know that I care about them a lot, my fans
are the oil behind my engine,
they make me want to keep keeping on..lol
I love being able to express myself through my music and my
pictures.
One of the most challenging things about Modeling is the
impossible standard set by the
Fashion industry. You have to believe in
yourself and stick to your values to not lose
yourself in the 'you must look a
certain way' agenda.
|
Visual
artistry, is a whole lot of things. visual artistry opens a lane for you to be
completely who you are, without having to "perfect" or "tweak"
or change anything about yourself. It gives you the ability to create based on
how your spirit feels, rather than looking and being a specific way that
society wants you to, in order for you to gain recognition for your beauty.

I grew up in
Toronto to Cameroonian parents and started dancing at a young age. I have done
solo shows around Canada mainly Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and British
Colombia. Last year we formed a group called MELTgirls which is based in
Toronto. we do live shows and have performed with artist such Iyanya,
Timaya, Psquare just to name a few. as well as performing for local Canadian
based artist. we do almost everything from zouk, classical, contemporary to
Spanish fusions like batchata and salsa. our main forte is Hip-Hop, dancehall
and Afrobeat. our mission is to teach dance and incorporate It into the
educational and health system not just as a fun or competitive act but as a
method to keep our youth involved in the community, out of the street and a
distress relief. Adults can also benefit from this as a workout tool and female
in particular are our main target to increase their self esteem while reducing
obesity rates in teenagers.

I was nominated as one of the top 5 best runway models at the
Stars & Stripes-Project Runway fashion show in Hampton, VA. I was so nervous
and shaking like a baby. I couldn’t believe it, all of the models were
excellent walkers and have been modeling way before me who has just started in
April 2014. When it was time to do a
“Walk off” against the other models, my nervousness immediately went away, and
I walked for my life! I received several
complements about my skin and complexion and my lips.
Though I didn’t win in the end, I was still honored that I was even
selected as a nominee to showcase the art of the designers and bringing their
pieces to life. I’m 30 years young, have
2 children, currently majoring in Social Work, and want to become a Probation
and Parole officer.
Keeping up with your own personal items behind the scenes at the
shows was challenging. Getting exposure
and making a name for yourself is even harder.
it's rocky road when starting off, because no one knows you, designers
like working with people they have a history with and all designers have their
picks… So whenever I get cast for a show… I bring it!

I am an ambitious, go
getter that stops at nothing to fulfill my place in this world as a filmmaker,
model, business woman, and innovator. I'm magnetic and unlike anyone you'll
ever meet! I guarantee that!
I felt most connected
to my African American Heritage on the runway for Africa Fashion Week - New
York City. I love fully expressing
myself, and giving people a glance inside who I am with every photo. I must say
that while I love showing off, I remember to always remain humble. Breaking the ethnic boundaries I would say is
the hardest thing about modeling for me.
It takes passion and positive energy to do modeling.

I am a classically
trained singer with strong roots in gospel and musical theater I landed my first
professional singing gig at 11 on Broadway in a gospel play. My music is
soulful and inspirational yet current . What
I love about music is that it is a universal language that expresses the
deepest part of your being. Music is a
healing for your soul.
Maintaining your
integrity while balancing the music and business parts is the challenging thing
about music. My favorite music
experience was when I toured Europe for the first time. The people,
the history and food were amazing.
I have a single out
called I Need You and My newest single I Forgive You will be out this fall. "I
Need You" is available on iTunes Google Play and Amazon.com The video on this page is a tribute to Mahiala
Jackson.
