Interview by Suzette BanzoWhat a treat it is to interview plus models making their way in this industry! Get to know Tiffany Braxton...
[Suzette] Tiffany Braxton, according to your MySpace page you are in the SEPTEMBER issue of ALL YOU MAGAZINE. Congratulations Braxton! Is there a way to see you in the magazine on line or do we have to get the actual magazine?
[Tiffany] Thank you! You would have to see the magazine itself, my copy came in the mail yesterday, I'm so excited! You can get an issue at Wal-Mart, I plan to scan it and add it to MySpace. I can't believe I'm actually featured in a magazine!
[Suzette] Very, very cool Tiffany, you are in a print magazine!
[Tiffany] Yeeeesssssssssssss! I remember when Christina Mendez was first explaining to me what tear sheets were, I was so tickled to see it and think ... I HAVE ONE!
[Suzette] Tell us about your spread...what is it like?
[Tiffany] Well I did the shoot back in April or May. I was excited for the opportunity and for being considered. I was also excited about being pampered for the day.
[Suzette] How did you find out about it...or how did they find out about you?
[Tiffany] I responded to an ad on craigslist.com and emailed my pictures but it took a long time before I heard a response.
[Suzette] So you have to be patient and not give up hope whenever you're responding to these opportunities. What kind of pampering did they give you? Take us there with you Tiffany.
[Tiffany] Absolutely! Patience is needed in this industry. I was the first to arrive along with the hair stylist. She flat ironed my hair. Their makeup artist was magnificent. Once I was finished with hair and makeup breakfast arrived. After taking a few individual photos, lunch was delivered.
