Tell us about yourself (where are you from, age, whatever you want to add)

My name is Breanna Boyd, I’m a 17 year old model based in Nashville Tennessee. I have had a love for creating artistic visions and making them happen since I was about 13.  Modeling is one of my most passionate forms of creating art and truly being myself. 

Tell us about your modeling experience: 

I started modeling when I was 15 years old. I started out with John Casablancas Modeling and Acting school. Since then I have participated in many runway shows, published in magazines, and worked with many brands for photo shoots. 

What is your biggest dream? 

My biggest dream is to walk in New York Fashion week and to work for larger, more well known brands. If I ever became wealthy in modeling I’d love to use my platform and money to build an organization to help low income or low class students afford education and housing. 

What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful? 

To be your own kind of beautiful is to be unapologetically yourself. To live without fear of what others think- and allowing your creativity to bloom without having a second thought. 

How would you describe your fashion style? 

My sense of style is very feminine and exquisite on most days. I love floral patterns, puff sleeves, skirts, and dresses. Although, I do have a very open mind when trying out new trends and styles. 

Who or what inspires you? 

My personal religion is Baptism, so I have to say my biggest inspiration is Jesus Christ. Anytime I feel discouraged, average, or even amazing- his words are always there to lift me up. He’s what inspires me to be the best version of myself.  

What is your advice to someone who is just getting started with modeling? 

Never compare yourself to other beautiful/handsome models in the industry. Becoming insecure and un-confident in yourself will make you miss out on amazing opportunities. You are so uniquely made and are given an amazing talent regardless of your ethnicity, gender, age, weight, or height. 

Describe some obstacles you have overcome in your life and how that has changed or shaped you.

Obstacles that I still face till this day are anxiety and depression. Having these things has made me into a stronger person and helps me empathize easily with others. No matter how hard life can be on my mental health, there was always something there that encouraged me to keep going, and that was the modeling industry. 

What makes you beautiful? 

What makes me beautiful are my differently  shaped eyes, elongated and sharp face structure, my random freckles, my soul, and my determination. 

What would you say to another girl/guy your age who is struggling with their confidence?

Embrace the things that make you so different from everyone else, beauty can be found in every detail. If we all looked the same the world would be extremely boring, so love the body you were given since we have only one life.
