Model Experience: How old were you when you first got into modeling?
Madison Taylor: I was 10 years old when I first began to model. I stayed for a summer and never went home.
ME: What was appealing to you about modeling?
MT: Because I was so young and I didn't know much about it; I use to always love to have my photo taken when i was younger and watch fashion shows on TV.
ME: Is the business as tough as people say it is?
MT: Yes it has its ups and downs but if you love what you do everyday its not tough as most think. The sterotypes exist everywhere but i believe less than the average person believes because there are other factors that affect ones expierence and view on the industry.
MT: Yes I have always been influenced by the industry but every since i was younger i always dressed wild and had my own sense of style. However, I would describe my style as vintage with a edgy twist. I love mixing and matching patterns.... my style is taking typical patterns but mixing them making an outfit unpredictable.
ME: What would be your advice to a new model in the industry?
MT: Don't get easily discouraged and don't take everything too seriously but always create bonds with the people you work with and be professional.
ME: What has been your favorite photoshoot?
MT: Oh my I have been doing this for 8 years so off the top of my head.... probably when i was younger the Tommy Hilfiger Campaign because all of my friends were with me and we just had a blast it wasn't like a job.
ME: What has been the hardest photoshoot you've had to do?
MT: Probably shooting in hardly any clothes in the winter time on a beach and running in the ocean. I couldn't feel my body although it was something simple considering the conditions and wearing hardly anything on my legs it was miserable!
MT: I love either i think that it doesn't matter but sometimes shooting outside is exciting more to work with but the downside is the lighting is hard to control and can be time consuming but it doesn't really mattter. Work is work.
ME: Has modeling brought you on any travels?
MT: Yes the most recent was when i went to Mexico for a shoot. We had a super early call time and shot in City hall and then had the rest of the day to lay by the pool and roast! I went back to school nice and tan in the middle of February.
ME: Finish the sentence:
The absolute best thing about modeling is....
MT: Meeting great talented people from designers, makeup/hair artists, photographers... etc.
ME: The absolute worst thing about modeling is...
MT: There is always going to be someone who looks similar to you and appeals more to the client but if you have a great personality you can win them over; so don't let it get to you there is always something out there. Also, the worst thing is those who walk around thinking they are better than you.
