April Featured Model: Paige Folks
April's model of the month is none other than ATG's own Paige Folks! Paige is a wonderful model that is trying to elevate in the industry. "I have always wanted to be a model since I was little, when TK gave me
the opportunity to model for him I took it without a second thought, " she said when asked about how she got into modeling. " I have never really had modeling idols per say. Most models in the
industry aren't like me, which is alternative. I have always wanted to be a
Victoria's Secret model though so I guess I look up to them," she explained when talking about her influences.
Paige wouldn't be specific about her favorite's to work with, "Now now your trying to get me in trouble. I won't mention specific names, but in a general sense I love working with photographers that are creative. If they have crazy ideas, or elaborate in depth shoot ideas, I am all in!" She did, however; describe what she doesn't like about photographers, " The thing that turns me off from a photographer the most is when they don't have a passion for what they are doing. Also there are certain photographers that don't give models the respect they deserve and don't act professionally."
" I love every kind of modeling, but I would have to say lingerie is my favorite because I love the character I get to portray. I also love wild and fun shoots like the paint shoot I did with Jacque Russell Imagery. It was fun being drenched in paint," Paige said when asked about her favorite types of modeling. " She went on to talk about her ambitions, "I would love to be as famous as Tyra Banks, isn't that what every up and coming model dreams about? But since the odds are low for that to happen, I would just love to be able to make modeling my career. If I am reaching for the stars, I want to be a Victoria's Secret model. They will eventually have to except tattoos right!?"
Paige ended by leaving some advice for new models, "I would say you just need to get out there as much as possible. Don't be afraid to ask a photographer to work with you, the worst they can say is no. The more experience you get the better off you will be in the big leagues."
