RM: When was the first time you though you might be interested in modeling?
CM: I grew up pretty much as one of the boys so I would never have imaged that modeling would be a career path for me. I did my first shoot at 18 and after never bothered pursuing the industry until a little over a year ago, I was contacted by a well know photographer in Miami and have not stopped booking working
-------------------------------------------------------------
RM: What have you learned about modeling that could help new aspiring models?
CM: Every shoot, is a opportunity to learning. Take with you all the tricks & tips from each job and find a way to make it work with your style. Just like school.. don't be afraid to ask questions if you don't know something.
-------------------------------------------------------------
RM: What were the thoughts going through your head about actually shooting for the 1st time?
CM: My first shoot was so much fun I really don't remember thinking anything other than the particular emotion I was looking to come through in that image.
-------------------------------------------------------------
RM: What are some great pieces of advice you have received?
CM: NEVER pay. If someone truly wants to work with you, they will pay you!
-------------------------------------------------------------
RM: What are some things you might warn other models about who are just coming into the industry?
CM: Research everything and be sure to ask lots of questions. Most important trust your own instincts... of you find yourself second guessing something or someone, trust your instincts.
