NATALIE'S TIPS FOR Entering The Model Industry

"There is more than one ‘model type,’ and not all models are fashion models Commercial models have the look of the ‘guy/girl-next-door’ and can model any consumer-friendly product (such as toothpaste, medications, skincare, etc.). Commercial models can be any age, size, and look."

"You should build a strong portfolio book in order to become a professional model."

"Take improv classes. Improv skills help with everyday life, as well as with preparing for the camera."

"Don’t be afraid of who you are—love yourself!"

"Find yourself a good support system. It’s an extremely difficult industry and can be lonely. Surround yourself with people who believe in you!"
