Hello Tregesy, I'm flattered you accepted to be interviewed for THE HUQ!, to
start this interview off, please give me some background information.
How did you initially decide to get into modeling? What was the catalyst to you
making this decision?
I was challenged by a (former) fiance who doubted my
ability to model. Not being one to turn down a challenge I started building a
portfolio and was asked to collaborate on several projects. Doors opened as soon
as I allowed myself the opportunity.
Define what being sexy is to you?
Confidence and uniqueness. "Sexy" is someone's ability to exhibit and be proud
of who they are and share it. Everyone has the ability to be sexy.
Tregesy, what would you say is your sexiest asset?
I get a lot of compliments on my eyes and muscle-tone but mostly other "ass"-ets
especially with bikini and glamour modeling.
How would you describe the image that comes across when
people look at your photos?
Sex-kitten-fem-bot with laser-beam eyes.
What experience do you value more and attain more
personal satisfaction from as a model: the creative process behind an intimate
collaboration with a talented photographer, make-up artist and/or designer OR
seeing the reaction from your family, friends and fans as they bare witness to
the finished product?
Everyone gets stereotyped, especially in
this industry. Models are judged by appearance. It comes with the territory. I
have the opportunity to dress up as different personas at shoots that I don't
necessarily get to be in "real life". The only thing that bothers me about the
stereotype is when creepy photographers think I live in an over-sexed
alternate-reality and have been waiting my entire life to be hit on by them
during/after a shoot.
What is controversial and unique
about you?
I prefer to be on the road in the company of wild and
crazy traveling often dirty and probably smelly musicians than dressed to the
nines at a fancy affair. It's fun to play dress up but I definitely don't prefer
the glamour and glitz lifestyle. Been there. Done that. I'm far too laid back to
be that superficial.
What would you say sets you apart
from other women in the same field, with similar goals?
Probably, the above statement. Aside from that, I'm
educated and have a great job doing nerdy things at a tech company which I
really enjoy. I'm a huge geek who gets more excited about Excel spreadsheet and
Google Analytics functionality than shoe shopping.
Do you place any limitations on
yourself in terms of what you will and will not do in this industry to succeed,
or do you have a 'by any means necessary I will get mine in the 21st century'
attitude?
I've turned down many profitable opportunities because I
wasn't comfortable with the projects or people. My goal is to make it as far as
I can while still feeling proud of what I have done. Although quite liberal, I
wouldn't be happy doing anything that compromises my personal values.
For all of the people,
photographers, agencies and companies seeing you for the first time who will
want to gain more information about you, tell them where they can go to see and
read about some of your past, present and future projects?
