BEHIND THE LENS
ABOUT Jeannie
I am a 51 year-old mother and grandmother from Detroit, Michigan. My modeling career started late in life for me as my day to day was managing IT Operations across five global locations for a major manufacturing company. I never thought at the age of 49, I would be modeling. The past few years have been a fairy tale for me. As I emerge myself into modeling, I can recall looking at fashion magazines and catalogs as a young girl, thinking how beautiful those women were.
These days, I am no longer investing into IT, but into modeling. I have given up dressing like one of the guys for makeup, heels, short dresses and swimwear revealing legs that I covered for decades.
In the past two years I have walked in NYFW twice, Paris Fashion Week, showcased in Times Square, 7 magazine publications, and graced many runways.
My passion is to be a fashion, commercial, and print model. To be the face of those women who are too 'old' to be young and too 'young' to be old.
As I embark on this new story in my life, I want to show other women who never saw themselves as beautiful or drop dead gorgeous to be you. Let your light shine and embrace your "Perfect Imperfections."
