About Me:

I am Lilli. I did gymnastics my whole life as it taught me self-discipline. I learned how to make goals and how to achieve them.

I love working with children, as they always know how to put an amazing smile on my face. I’ve worked with all age groups for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked in day cares and from my own home. It’s very heart warming when a child comes up to you and says ” you’re the best person I have met and I’m glad I get to be with you while mommy and daddy are working” or when they say “I wish I never had to leave and I could stay with you forever” That’s when you know you are doing something right.

I finished high school, as it was really hard for me as I got bullied a lot and a lot of the times I just didn’t see any reasons to live. But I met amazing people who helped me get through my rough times. I became a model not to long ago as it is still very new to me but a friend of mine said that I should try to become a model and she pointed me into the right direction and here I am. I love modeling as it helps me learn how to get myself out there and make new friends.

I was adopted when I was six years old. My mom abounded me when I was born. Not sure why, but maybe someday I would love to find her and ask her why? I remember a lot that happened in the orphanage. It was not one of my best memoirs. I was really happy that I was finally leaving and that people from Paris adopted my best friend. We were both able to leave that horrible place but we were both devastated that we had to leave one another. She will always be in my heart and I will never forget her.

How did you get started with modeling:

A friend of mine told me I would be a great model and that I should try to audition for it. She put me into the right direction. I went and did a interview and got accepted.

Has it been a great experience?

Yes, modeling has been a wonderful experience. I can finally love myself for who I am, I’ve learned how to get out of my shell and have a good time. I’ve always met wonderful people and have gotten close with many models that I have worked with as well with photographers.

How long have you been modeling?

Not that long. Still learning the ropes but about 3 months now.

What are your goals?

My goal is to become a role model for other woman and girls who think they cannot make it into the world. No matter what people say to you, you can achieve anything as long as you put yourself out there. That dreams can come true.

Have you been published?

No, not yet. Hopefully one day I can and I would be honored when that day comes.

Who have you worked with?

I’ve worked with playboy energy drink. I’ve worked with Phil Couillard, Josh Kennedy, Bill Strome, Megan Zins, Juan Sedel, James Jones, and Jeremiah Rosa

What will make you want to hire me?

I think I would be an amazing audition to your family because I can bring laughter and smiles into the room. I am a very hard working person and I never give up no matter what. If I am new to something I will be more then happy to ask how to do the task

About you:

I’m an aspiring petite model with dreams of working in Los Angeles one day. I am interested in botany, reading, fashion, photography, and psychology. I plan on modeling full time once I finish school. I make up for my lack of height with humor, enthusiasm, and six inch heels.

How did you get started modeling?

I discovered Brian Thornton on Facebook and had my first two photo-shoots ever back to back with him. Though my love for it truly started when I was little girl. I loved when people took pictures of me showing off toys and outfits. Playing dress up was also a big thing for me too.

Has it been a good experience?

Yes it was a great experience! I learned a lot and got some great photos my first time modeling. The area was neat and the people who owned it were really nice.

How long have you been modeling?

I started in August of 2014. So roughly, one year and five months.

What are your goals?

Finish college, move out to Los Angeles, get hired at a few agencies, and model my little heart out!

Have you been published?

Yes! I have been published in Modern Model Magazine several times, including being on December 2015’s cover. I have been published in a book with Brian Thornton. I have been published for working with Manitou Pontoons. I had photos from the “Big Hair Shoot” at the H Hotel in Midland advertised at Sempliners in Bay City and Lux the Salon in Midland.

What are your strengths as a model

I am a chameleon. I strive to push myself with every shoot. I aim to grow my skills as a model and seek to learn at every opportunity. I take criticism well and always push to be better than my last effort. I take what I do seriously and always act in a respectful, professional manner. I give it my all and put my heart into my work.

” Britt and I worked together back when she had first started modeling. I am not typically one for cliches, but Britt was truly a diamond in the rough. She had a captivating beauty that mesmerized you through the view finder. It was a hot summer day when we shot, yet I did not hear a complaint at any time. She listened carefully to my instruction and kept a positive attitude the entire shoot.

We kept in touch and over a year later, we finally had an opportunity to work together again. Britt has come so far since that first shoot. Her positive attitude is still there, her eagerness to learn and to so well still drives her and she still shows others true respect! Looking for a model? You can’t go wrong with Britt”
