February 25, 2010 5:50am Tiffany, I was so impressed with your entire portfolio that I just as easily could have complimented each one individually. I chose this one because it combines what I feel are several talents that really distinguish you from so many other models and propel you into the top tier of future fashion icons. In short, you have a model's EPA: Expression, Pose and Assets.A top NYC agent once told me that, before they sign a model to an exclusive agency contract, they require solid EPA: (1) Expression - this and other photos in your port show the ability to use your flawless face, expressive eyes and full lips to set the mood for the shot. How many times have we seen pictures of gorgeous models who appear to be detached from the shot? They're body says one thing, but their face is either blank or far away, expressionless. You, by contrast, show a keen understanding of the objective of each shot and it shows on your face; (2) Pose - when it comes to posing, the devil-ishness is in the details. From the subtle title of your head, the arch of your back, your hand gestures. You are one model that KNOWS how to pose and, drawing from a seemingly endless supply of creative stances, you also know just the right pose for specific situations. That is a truly unique talent that top models bank on; and (3) Assets - you are a work of art, a flawless face, picture-perfect body, long neckline, defined hips -- the perfect canvass for each work of art. But unlike other models with great assets, you truly know how to use them and understand that you are as much if not more the artist than the photographers who are fortunate enough to snap your picture. While agencies sign very few models below 5'8, the exceptions are those with your rare qualities. I cannot say enough about your qualities as a model. But I can say that agencies would be fortunate to have a model that is both a work of art and an expressive artist all rolled into one beautiful package. If I may ever be of assistance to you in your career, I would consider it a privilege to do so.
