SKYLAR VENUS
OCTOBER 2015 - TEEN MODEL OF THE MONTH
Photography By: Aldo Antonio - Aldo Creative Images
My name Skylar Venus. I was born in 1998 and currently live in Franklin Township, New Jersey. In 2004, when I was six years old, my father passed away. While this was a very difficult time for me, I knew he would want me to make the most of my life. I spent a great deal of my childhood years - into my teenage years involved in dance as well as cheerleading. I also became interested in motocross and with the help of my uncle, raced quads for 3 years.
When I was 13 years old, my grandmother encouraged me to try modeling. That is where it all began. Shortly after beginning modeling, I was picked up by Wilhelmenia of Philadelphia. Through Wilhelmenia I took acting and modeling classes. I had the opportunity to meet an extremely talented photographer by the name of Tony Gibble of Lancaster, PA. My passion for modeling quickly grew and being from New Jersey I wanted to work the New York City circuit so I began classes at Barbizon of Red Bank.
During this time, I was called for a csting for a new designer by the name of Lainy Gold Designs. I did some shows with Lainy Gold and have since become one of her her house models. I have worked with Lainy Gold in various fashion shows and photo shoots. Lainy Gold has opened many doors for me with other designers and photographers. For the past two seasons, I have walked in Atlantic City Fashion Week. I consider it a great honor to work with the many wonderful people involved with this venue. Some of the designers I have had the pleasure of working with include Soniia Baram, Sense of Style-website, Lainy Gold Designs, Jon Lauren-Catalog, John Leon and D'Marsh Couture, Adolpho Sanchez, JRG Bikinis, Eliza Wilson and Riichie. I have also worked with Mario Bucceri.
Most recently, I was scouted by Ishika Chaudhary to walk in NYFW 2015. I am also working with Tazz Undermodel Management. I have just been casted for a new Reality TV Web series called Elevate My Runway. While every aspect of modeling is exciting to me, my passion is runway shows. I walked in Jersey Shore Fashion Show 2013-2014. Plitz New York Fashion Week 2013; Couture New York Fashion Week 2014-2015. Sparkle Shine Fashion Divine 2014, Atlantic City Fashion Week 2014-2015. Small Boutique Fashion Week 2015. Bronx Fashion week 2015. Style Fashion Week 2015 and Tiffany's Fashion Show at the Plaza in New York City - 2015.
Thanks to some wonderful photographers such as Carol Maiorino and Mr. Don Photography. I have been published in Billie Blunt Magazine and Swim Journal 2015. Some of the other photographers I have worked with include Aldo Antonio, Tony Gibble,Ferraro Fotos, Ja-Reed Quayan, Bob Cox, Miguel Aviles, Raul Equsquiza and Garret Holmes.
There is something special about modeling! I hope all of my dreams for a future in modeling come true. I am extremely grateful for every opportunity that has come my way. Thanks Mom and family for supporting all that I do. I am so very thankful to have a great support team who keeps me grounded.
