MEET THE MODEL LEA P

Do you wonder what it’s like behind the scenes of a photo shoot? Or what it is like to be a child model?!

It’s different every time of course, childrens fashion photographer Emily Kornya has worked for Lamantine, Je suis en CP! Hilda.Henri, The Small Gatsby and many others, but there is a general pattern each time that your child will either love or hate.

From today on we’ll start a new series on the blog called ‘Meet the model’ where every other week we interview another child model.

Where do you live?

Near Paris

What languages do you speak?

I speak French, and I started learning English in school last year.

How old were you when you started modelling?

I was eight months when I started … ..and I want to continue forever, even if there are fewer jobs right now because I’m not in the right sizes.

Do you ever travel for photo shoots? If so, where do you travel?

Yes, I was in Italy, in Florence, Venice and Sicily, and also in Spain, in Barcelona, at the Coronia and a nearby town in Portugal.

What’s your favourite thing about modelling?

I like meeting friends, and making new ones, also I like to travel and I especially like to wear the beautiful clothes.

Do you have a favourite shoot/shoots ? If so, why?

My favourite was for a ZARA campaign in Barcelona; I stayed for two days with the team for photos, we shot a short film and I loved it. We were even at the seaside ….
