10-year career – How it started in 2007: Calendrier Dream Team 2008
Did you know it’s been 10 years since I started as a glamour model?

For those who are wondering how I was first brought to the public eye, here’s my little story. :) I had studied in fashion design, but I was working in an office, sewing and making costumes for hip hop dance schools and prom dresses as a side job. I already had my breast implants. (No, I didn’t get my implants because of my modeling work. This is something I made for myself. I had no idea at this moment that I would be a model one day. I was just always a fan of big breasts and never regretted my choice.) In October 2007, I entered a contest to be part of a calendar organized by a radio station in Quebec City. One of the radio hosts, Marto Napoli, chose me to be part of the calendar. We became friends and he featured me in his radio show. I was talking on the radio almost every week. My first fans were Marto’s listeners.
In 2008, Quebec City was celebrating its 400 years, so this calendar’s theme was about Quebec City’s 400 years celebrations. Each month of the calendar had a related theme and December was about a futuristic looking Quebec City, how it may look in 400 more years. They of course had chosen me for this theme. (Funny fact: the stylist’s clothes and wig choices were loosely inspired by Six from Tripping the Rift and I was traumatized because they had made my waist so tiny in Photoshop. But I had no idea what cosplay was at that time. I found out about cosplay only in 2009.) So here I am, holding the 2008 calendar, wearing a red top that I had sewn by myself. This is at this moment, in November 2007, that I thought that doing a photoshoot for a calendar had been funny and that with my figure, maybe I could become a glamour model! lol I was very naive and didn’t know anything about this industry. But this is how it started and how I started traveling to collaborate with photographers. The rest is history. :)
