I spent most of my middle childhood in the studio, helping out with clients during photoshoots.YOU%u2019RE PASSIONATE ABOUT TRAVEL. HOW HAVE YOUR TRAVELS INFLUENCED YOUR APPROACH TO FASHION AND MODELING?Traveling around the world gives you different perspectives on fashion and upcoming trends. For instance, in Milan, everyone was wearing cowboy boots last year, and six months later, the cowboy boot trend was everywhere in the U.S. I love modeling abroad, not just for the incredible landscapes but also for the amazing people I get to meet. It%u2019s also fun learning about different cultures.Photographer: Kristi Sutton Elias Photographywww.kristielias.comModel: Skyler Elias
