Taylor Hill's life took an unexpected turn at the age of 14 when she was discovered at a dude ranch in Colorado. Born in Illinois but raised in the mountains of Colorado, Taylor grew up snowboarding and enjoying the outdoors with her family. Her mother, a former hairdresser turned stay-at-home mom, instilled in her a sense of creativity and diligence that would serve her well in her future career.That fateful day at the ranch, a photographer mistook Taylor and her siblings for hired models. Within 24 hours, she found herself shooting her first catalog for Belk. This serendipitous encounter launched her into the world of modeling, a career she hadn't previously considered.At 14, Taylor signed with IMG Models and began her whirlwind journey in the fashion industry. With her mother by her side, she navigated the complexities of the modeling world, learning to balance work and personal growth.As Taylor's modeling career soared, she became a familiar face in major fashion shows and campaigns. Her work with Victoria's Secret became a significant part of her journey, participating in their iconic fashion shows and growing alongside the brand as it evolved over the years.Throughout her modeling career, Taylor found a constant companion in her dog, Tate. This Labradoodle became more than just a pet; he was her soulmate and teacher, showing her the meaning of unconditional love and responsibility. Tate accompanied her to photoshoots in New York, becoming a beloved mascot in the fashion world.Tragically, Tate's battle with lymphoma opened Taylor's eyes to the gaps in the pet care industry. This experience inspired her to create Tate & Taylor, a company aimed at revolutionizing the pet space. Through this venture, Taylor seeks to blend her experiences in fashion and social media with her passion for pets, creating a platform that offers curated products, educational content, and a supportive community for pet owners.Today, Taylor continues to balance her successful modeling career with her entrepreneurial pursuits. She's set to return to the Victoria's Secret runway later this year, while also working tirelessly to grow Tate & Taylor.*The Founder Hour is brought to you by Outer. Outer makes the world's most beautiful, comfortable, innovative, and high-quality outdoor furniture - ALL from sustainable materials - and is the ONLY outdoor furniture with a patented built-in cover to make protecting it effortless.

On this episode I chatted with Oklahoma model and future actress Madison Sells. Madison grew up in Oklahoma in Woodward and then later in Piedmont Oklahoma. Madison is a small-town Oklahoma girl, has spent over a decade working as a full-time model in the fashion industry since the age of 13. Madison signed with a local agent in Oklahoma City as a young teen, and quickly catapulted to the top of the industry. At age 14, Madison moved overseas and worked in Singapore and Tokyo, after signing an exclusive worldwide contract with the world's largest modeling agency, IMG Models. Madison continued to work overseas in the Asian markets to establish a foundation for her official career launch in New York City. It was during this time Madison graced multiple covers of high fashion magazines, such as Elle, Style, and Female, as well as work with Giorgio Armani, Converse, Mulberry, and Vogue. After turning 18, Madison officially moved to New York City, where she catapulted her career to a new level of clientele. She has walked for some of the biggest designers at New York Fashion Week and has been featured in campaigns for Marc Jacobs Beauty, Bloomingdales, Sak's, DKNY, BCBG, and many more. You've almost certainly come across her face at your local Target, Sephora, Ulta, newsstand, or mall, and never even knew it! Madison closed her full-time New York chapter and moved to Los Angeles with Freedom Models three years ago, where she now happily resides. Her career is as active as ever with a consistent clientele in e-commerce, swim, and beauty work, and has newly moved into the acting realm.

Often people remark how they would love to open a restaurant and from the outside looking in, there is an understandable appeal. After all, having a home court to greet old friends, meet new ones, celebrate special occasions, and moving around the room in charge, can look glamorous at times. But behind-the-scenes, what does it take to be a restaurateur operating at a higher level? This week's guests, Michael Vann and Alvin Clayton , both restaurateurs, self-made, and with careers in the fashion industry, provide a glimpse into the world of hospitality from a restaurateur's point of view. After working as an executive with Lord & Taylor in New York City, Chicago native Michael Vann pivoted to the hospitality industry starting as general manager at B. Smith's restaurant, working with the legendary B. Smith in the late 80s. From there, his entrepreneurial spirit inspired him to develop, own and operate several restaurants in New York City including the renowned Shark Bar, serving upscale soul food in the 1990's. Michael is currently in the process of establishing new locations for his most recent concept, Smitty & Mo's, a very popular fast casual restaurant. Alvin Clayton is a Trinidad-born restaurateur, artist, and model. He and his wife, Gwen, are the owners and operators of the award-winning Southern and Caribbean restaurant, Alvin and Friends, located in New Rochelle, New York. Alvin's restaurant career started in the famed and ground-breaking Los Angeles restaurant, Georgia, helmed by Brad Johnson which had several celebrity investors including Denzel Washington, Norm Nixon, Debbie Allen, and Lou Adler. Alvin is also a self-taught artist whose work exudes bright, bold colors of life in the African experience. His work has been featured in the Smithsonian Institute of African-American Art, several films, and most recently, a virtual political show, Unapologetically Me. Among his art patrons are Ken and Kathy Chenault, New York University, Denzel Washington, Blair Underwood, Hill Harper, CCH Pounder and Lorraine Toussaint, to name a few. Alvin has also had an illustrious modeling career and recently signed with the world-renowned IMG Models. In this episode, with decades of experience in the same industry, host Brad Johnson sits down with Michael and Alvin to discuss their journeys, how they started in the hospitality industry, what made being a restaurateur the right fit for them, how they find the strength to carry on during trying times, what direction they are taking going forward and the future of the industry.

Sie ist die aufregendste Figur der Fashionwelt und Lieblings-Influencerin der Luxury Brands. Noonoouri arbeitet für Dior, Versace und Marc Jacobs. Stars wie Naomi Campbell, Lewis Hamilton, Kim Kardashian und Disgnerin Donatella Versace höchstpersönlich folgen ihr auf Instagram. IMG Models, die berühmteste Model-Agentur der Welt hat sie neben Kate Moss und Hailey Bieber unter Vertrag genommen. Sie posiert lässig neben Kendall Jenner und Gigi Hadid.

Ich habe sie jetzt besucht und mit Creator Jörg Zuber über die Kunstfigur in der Fashionwelt gesprochen. Warum auch ein digitales Model Haltung haben muss, wie Avatare das Social Media Business verändern, warum Unternehmen virtuelle Charaktere als „Diversity next level“ sehen und was das für normale Models bedeutet – das alles jetzt hier in TOMorrow. Klicken wir uns rein: Viel Spaß in der wunderbaren Welt von Noonoouri, viel Spaß Mastermind Jörg Zuber mit seinem digitalen Supermodel.

A Career To Covet. Lisa Benson has a job many would want. The kind of job that begs the question “how did you get to do this?” As a Vice President at IMG Models, she’s a woman responsible for the fruitful careers of many, including supermodels Chrissy Teigen, Lily Aldridge, Chanel Iman, Hilary Rhoda, and more. She enjoys building her models into brands, and appreciates when they come to her with a holistic approach to the job. Lisa’s story is inspiring, and it’s a story of how dedication, loyalty, passion and hard work can get you very far. She started her career at IMG as receptionist, mastering the company’s buzzing switchboard, where every call was an important one, before being promoted to (now, company President) Ivan Bart’s assistant---a job she was simply determined to have. Lisa combines creativity, a business instinct, and a generous 24-7 approach to her work. She knows she’s able to do it well if she’s truly there for the models she represents, and many of them count her as not a trusted source that will help develop their career, but as a friend. We get into all the details of the work that she does, and her scrappy entry into the business. We discuss the skills needed, how she manages the innate pressure her job will bring, how social media plays a huge part in a model’s career, dealing with difficult people, diversity in the industry, the industry’s most sought-after jobs, her own favorite deals to work on, and how her industry will change for the future. We finish with the big question: what she’s looking forward to in the future. And of course we tapped her for a lightning round of favorites, including what she’s watching and reading, that you can shop here: 1.

Model Jayne Moore and photographer Michael Sanders join us on this week’s episode of the B&H Photography Podcast to discuss the creative and collaborative process between model and photographer on a fashion campaign.  From “go-sees” and casting via Instagram to the rhythm of a shoot, working with on-set teams, lighting insights, and the dos and do nots of professional interaction, we discuss the P.O.V. from both sides of the lens. The thread that runs through our conversation, though, is how a photographer and a model work together to create the best images to please themselves and their clients. Jayne Moore is represented by IMG Models, and has appeared in Elle, Cosmopolitan, and Marie Claire and in ads for Calvin Klein and L’Oreal, among many others. She has worked with photographers such as Annie Leibovitz, Dean Isidro, and Pamela Hanson, and brings to the conversation an incredible insight, not only to the work of a model, but also to the fashion industry in general and to the role a photographer should play. Michael Sanders is a return guest to our show and a regular contributor to Italian Elle magazine. His work can also be found in the international editions of Vogue, Glamour, and Marie Claire, and in the June, 2018 edition of U.S. Elle he photographed model Hailey Baldwin on the beaches of St. Lucia. Loaded with insight for photographers of any stripe and certainly for aspiring models or anyone interested in the creative fields, this is an enjoyable and informative chat.

Today’s episode features Danika Brysha. Danika is a curve model with IMG Models, the Founder & CEO of Model Meal—a Whole 30 compliant meal delivery service, and the Founder of The Brunch Series—a series of events where she inspires women to build the life of their dreams and find authentic happiness.  A recovered bulimic, binge eater, and food/sugar addict, Danika turned her worst enemy (food) into her most powerful medicine. Danika leveraged her struggles by tuning in and focusing on self-care. Through her commitment to self-care, Danika has created freedom and abundance in all areas of her life and has manifested the life of her dreams. Now she is touring the country sharing what she has learned in her healing journey with other women through The Brunch Series (along with her boyfriend and their 200-pound English mastiff, Kingsley).  Danika is a beautiful soul with a beautiful story; she is a model of living in her truth and creating her authentic dream life by digging into the hard stuff, putting in the work, and shining a light on her shadows. Enjoy the bright light that is Danika Brysha!   IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT: Danika’s lifelong struggle with food and how she overcame bulimia, binge eating, and food addiction by learning to be vulnerable and lean into her feelings instead of numbing them with food Danika’s journey of personal transformation and growth over the past four years, with wellness and self-care at the core How learning to love and accept herself changed Danika’s lifestyle choices, and ultimately, her life How Danika was turned off by pharmaceuticals and western medicine and became motivated to create a new prescription for healing—her self-care checklist How Danika used her self-care checklist to create the life of her dreams Why it is important to come from love and a gentle space instead of striving for perfection How our thoughts become our reality The importance of tuning in and really feeling all of the feelings that we don’t want to feel instead of numbing ourselves out How social media can be a space to feel less alone All about her eight-month Brunch Series tour Danika’s current interest in minimalism and a nomadic lifestyle The future of The Brunch Series Plus much more…   RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE Mentioned: Model Meals Brunch Series   Whole30 ISTDP—Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy Overeaters Anonymous Dr. Adi Jaffe and his approach to addiction treatment The 4-Hour Workweek NLP—Neurolinguistic Programming   Connect with Danika: Website: www.danikabrysha.com Instagram: @danikabrysha Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=10220911 Twitter: @DanikaBrysha Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/danikabrysha/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/danikabarrett     QUOTES “Once I started accepting and loving myself, I was able to make lifestyle choices, like how I ate, how I worked out, slept, and took care of myself; that really supported my healing in all aspects.”   “Whole 30 cleared my brain in a way that I started being able to do the inner work and paying attention to how I felt.”   “We get so used to our normal, that we forget we should feel great.”   “My self-care checklist is basically a checklist that I created that, for me, was my prescription for a great life. I used to get really overwhelmed by the idea of creating a good life, but I could get down with the idea of creating a great day.”   “The self-care checklist is a free pill, essentially, that you can do every morning. It has helped me more than any prescription med ever has.”   “Whatever you use to numb out—it doesn’t matter what you are using—it is all about what are we doing with the feelings that come up that we don’t want to feel?   “Feelings are visitors, let them come and go.”   “When we don’t stay in our body and we don’t feel our feelings, we make decisions based on what we think we should do instead of on how we feel.”   “Change and discomfort… I know that is what breeds growth.”   “Going inward and doing the self-work, getting sober, clear, and listening in has been one of the best things I have ever done for myself.”   “I learned at a young age how to think of something that doesn’t exist and create it, versus seeing what exists and trying to fit in that box.”   LET’S CONNECT Website: www.bryannadee.com Instagram: @bryanna_dee Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bryannadee Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/bryannadee/

Danika has been featured in InStyle, Shape, PopSugar, People, and many more publications. Her story has inspired thousands of women who are struggling with loving their body, their relationship with food and addiction, and transforming their lives. Danika shares her story, which starts at a young age, battling drug usage, fad chronic dieting, and being "the chubby girl", using her food to process her emotions. But that didn't stop her from being one of the busiest, most successful curve models in the world, after being discovered in a Bank of America. Needless to say, she took her insecurities and built a life for herself off of them. Some of the most useful food/body tips you'll ever hear from this episode are:   drop the FOOD RULES the answer to losing weight is "NOT trying to lose weight" it's never about the food, it's about YOU (your childhood, you mentality about yourself growing up, specific circumstances you were under) don't waste your energy on worrying about food, worry about YOUR DREAMS it's about how you FEEL after you eat food how much the MEDIA REALLY INFLUENCES the way you think about yourself

By offering aspiring models an opportunity to be seen by top modeling scouts, agents, and industry professionals in a secure, confidential, and inexpensive way, ModelScouts.com has grown to become the top choice of new and experienced models, including America’s Next Top Model Winner Nicole Linkletter and other ANTM Finalists, who are looking to begin or expand their careers into international markets.
