Discovered  On the street by model/photographer/booker Frank Begin. He gave me his card and took my first photos a week later.

Best Modelling Moment  Hmm... there are a few... but walking down Rue de Rivoli in Paris and suddenly seeing myself in the Adidas window -- from a shoot that I did in Montreal, months before -- was a really wonderful surprise!

Awkward Modelling Moment  I went to Ibiza for a shoot, and for one of the stories I wore lots of coloured flowy fabrics and dresses. The photographer wanted to use natural wind to get movement out of the clothes, so we shot on a cliff as close to the sea as possible. I was standing there, trying not to get blown over, when suddenly the 'dress' (it was more of a sheer poncho) flew up from behind me and right over my head! Wearing nothing but heels, I jumped to get it back and struggle it on.

Favourite Market  London, there's such diverse work, and the museums are free!
