Interview: Model Maria Vittoria Varoli (Italy)
Can you tell us a little about you?
I'm Maria Vittoria and i'm 19 years old. I am a person determined to chieve their goals, i don't fall for the first obstacle i encounter, conversely i commit myself even more to achieve it.
In these months from the working point of view i am growing a lot and i always try to improve
myself to grow more every day. I am very happy that many people appreciate me and believe in my potential, indeed i have manywork projects in progress in this period.
If you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?
I think i'm too touchy and i don't accept criticism although many times are constructive, sometimes i get angry for nothing and i can't reason... i don't like these aspects of my character but i can't change them and i don't like this because i can irritate people and sometimes i can seem rude even if it isn't my intention.
How did you start modeling?
I started by chance, it wasn't the dream of my life to be a model. Two years ago i did a shooting with a photographer who had contacted me and then i had posted those photos on instagram, from there they started contacting me other photographers interested in my image. From there i started working as a freelance until this year a model scouter discovered me believing in my potential and placing me in a agency.
What do you think of the work as a model?
I think that modeling work is a full-time job...you need to be professional and take it seriously, you have to be very organized to manage every working day for this sometimes it's very stressful but on the other hand it is very exciting because it's a creative job which allows you to express yourself...and I have to admit that I enjoy a lot on the set. Also you always know new people and for me it is something that enriches very personally.
What is your beauty regimen?
The important thing to keep fit is to eat healthy...I don't eat junk food or sweets but I don't limit myself on the rest ... in fact I eat a lot of pasta, fish, meat, vegetable, fruit ... everything!
I go swimming 3 or 4 times a week and I always try to move...physical activity is essential.
What are your personal qualities which distinguish you from others?
I have my own style...I don't have any models that inspire me, I have my own way of posing that comes to me automatically, when I'm on the set I transform myself...I feel powerful ahah...what I'm proud of are my big eyebrows!
What are your plans for the future?
I did not set specific plans or goals...I see at the moment what happens. I definitely want to continue this work always aiming to do something more each time
What are some of your favorite experiences so far?
I'm a fashion model but I had the opportunity to shoot artistic nude recently with a very good photographer who wanted me for his project...I really liked the result of our work the photos looked like living pictures...they captured my personality. I had never taken that genre before but I re-evaluated it because if done right it is pure art.
Do you have any advice for those who want to start modeling?
Surely those who want to start this work must immediately understand what their potential can be and how to make the most of them...obviously it must have certain physical parameters and based on this if it thinks it has the papers in order or propose themselves directly to some agency or you can start yourself by starting to propose your own image to people in the sector as photographers or scouters. there are so many ways to start this work that cannot be explained in two lines...but absolutely not advise against believing in people who promise to become models in exchange for money ... they are only scams.
What do you think of the magazine?
I think it is very useful for emerging models and that it can help you to be better known and to advertise your imagemaking people aware of their personality and not just their body.
