MV’S Model of the week Sebastian Monroe
Author: Johan Light
Q: Full Name?
A: Sebastian Monroe
Q: Are you a professional Model?
A: Actually, I have just started and am still in development with my Mother Agency; however, with my strong portfolio and excellent responses to my pictures, I do consider myself to be a professional model.
Q: How did you start in the modeling Business?
A: I was approached by several photographers asking if I would model for them. Many shoots later and a stronger portfolio, here I am.
Q: Which is your mother agency?
A: My mother agency, Specimen Model Management.
Q: Name your first major AD or work?
A: Macy’s Passport Runway Show, San Francisco.
Q: Favorite Designer or Brand?
A: Cartier! <3
Q: Whitch is your ethnic background?
A: 25% german, irish, korean, native indian
Q: Your favorite item in your closet?
A: Lube =) lol
Q: Favorite color?
A: Blue
Q: Favorite Meal?
A: I like buffet style meals lol
Q: Favorite Music & Artist?
A: I’m diverse in my tastes. I like anything that gets you up and moving, like “Crazy in Love” by Beyonce and Jay-Z & “Umbrella” by Rihanna is a hot one too.
Q: Share with Metrovelvet, a funny experience, perhaps, that might have happened during a photo shoot, or even on the runway?
A: I’m very particular. At a recent photo shoot I needed to use the bathroom for an urgent bowel movement. There wasn’t any toilet seat cover available. So, as the next best thing, I rolled off toilet paper and covered the toilet seat.
Rising quickly from the seat, I must have pulled some toilet paper up with me. Exiting the bathroom, I walked back to the shoot dragging a long length of toilet paper behind me. Funny now, but quite embarrassing at the time. =p
Q: How is to live in New York living your dreams coming from Alabama.
A: I actually grew up in Virginia and California, but NYC with 12 million is a BIG change from my towns of 500 people. It’s the most diverse city I’ve ever experienced since my time living in San Francisco.
It’s so full of life, there’s always something going on and something to do. Everything you may ever want or need is here.
That’s what makes NYC the best place to live on Earth. And, don’t forget, it’s the beauty capital of the world. =)
Q : Do u exercise? witch is your rutine.?
A : I just do a lot of cardio exercises. I try to drink plenty of water and eat healthy things. Plenty of sleep…and my body does the rest. You are what you eat, afterall.
Q : what is your schedule on a regular shooting day?
A : I’m so not a morning person! However, on a day of shooting I usually rise several hours earlier to walk around outside to refresh myself. And, of course, get a Starbucks White Mocha. Lol.
Q : Tell us about some of your latest projects.
A : My goal is to continue getting stronger as a model through stronger photos.
I believe that the stronger you are, the less competition you will have for bookings and jobs.
I plan to continue searching for a variety of excellent photographers to improve my portfolio. I’m now planning for a shoot with the photographer Michelle Wilson. She shoots for Red Models and other agencies. We plan on doing some beautiful and fierce portraits.
My other plans include Asia this summer for some commercials and print campaigns.
Q: Metrovelvet wants to know where do you see yourself in about ten years?
A: I’ve been writing lyrics to songs since I was 12 and have always dream of being a recording artist. For now, I am looking forward to relocating to the L.A. Area, but as my life has proven already, who knows where life and a career may lead you?
