feedback on people's bodies really bum me out. i've been in rooms where clients picking actors or models for their campaigns, saying stuff like "oh she has a wide smile, oh he has a large nose, she looks older, he looks wider" etc. like wtf, we're not picking costumes

As a brand owner who works with models constantly, I genuinely try to do better every time. ❤️On set, we’re all part of the same team. If a model isn’t comfortable with a design, I always try to understand why, because there’s a good chance my customers may have the same concern. In many ways, my models are my first focus group and my first clients.

Alex Rose :
the worst part is I was so young and it was my first job so I truly didn't recognize when things were unprofessional or when I was being taken advantage of because it was "industry standard". I thought I was so grown up living all on my own in a big city meanwhile my agency was in control of my self image and emotional wellbeing a lot of the time. My husband modeled too and we both agree our kids will NOT be allowed to model lol

I was scouted as a child and my mom said no. I was mad for so long but now as an adult (with kids of my own) I’m so grateful

I hate that this was your experience. I’m in the industry but this sh*t absolutely wouldn’t fly on ANY of my projects. You deserved so much better, that’s awful.

yes I want a part 2. you seem very in tune with yourself and express yourself coherently and it's very nice to watch. I'm glad you decided to take yourself out of that environment.

Wow this sounds like a horrible time 😭 I was obsessed with ANTM and the idea of wearing beautiful clothes seemed so glamorous I’m glad you are out of that environment! Also It’s so crazy I just left a job were everyone asked if my name was pronounced like yours! It’s so cool how it looks so similar but said so different 😂

The trick is to immediately make them start modeling for hours at a time. They’ll hate it and mission accomplished. Modeling isn’t just walking and being pretty and I wish kids knew that. You need to follow highly specific instructions from photographers who don’t know what they want.
