This is a picture from a campaign in Korea by a company called Lady Volume. I think it is so amazing that every picture I see my daughter in, she looks completely different. It's like she is a chameleon of fashion, she can literally be whatever the photographer asks her to be. People think modeling is an easy job, but in reality it can be very difficult. There are shoots where the model is there for 8 hours or more, sometimes shooting over a hundred different outfits and they want you to convey emotions through looks and poses. My daughter has had dead dragonflies placed on her face, she has had to lay in a pond, she has traveled to places where they wouldn't let her go outside at night because it was to dangerous. She has to take flights that are 18 hours long and the time difference is 14 hours ahead of the United States. I would call her on a Friday and where she was it was Saturday.  It's not all hard work though, she gets to meet interesting people from different countries, she walks in shows filled with celebrities, she gets to experience all kinds of new foods and see different cultures.
If you were to become a model, where would you want to go, who would you most want to meet, what brand would you want to work for?

You don't always see all the work they've done. Some clients may not even use what they shot or it may be for a campaign months down the road. The video above is something my daughter did in Korea for a company called Hdex. I found it on Instagram under their reels section after searching for hours to try and find all her work in Korea. It still amazes me that this is my child.

My daughter on the cover of Elle Greece From Runway Dreams to Magazine Covers: A Guide for Aspiring Models Breaking into the modeling industry is a dream for many, but seeing yourself on the cover of a magazine is a pinnacle that few achieve, especially when starting out. However, with the right strategy and perseverance, new models can turn this dream into reality. Here’s how a starting model can increase their chances of gracing a magazine cover: 1. Build a Strong Portfolio A well-rounded portfolio is essential for any aspiring model. This is your visual resume and should showcase your range and versatility.
