Colleen Elizabeth

Describe yourself in three words

Hard worker, sweet, ambitious.

Were you excited to shoot for Playboy?

Very much so! I’ve loved the brand with how they celebrate the female form and able to capture the essence of everyone's beauty. The US version actually gave me to confidence to go into modeling since that was my first break in college modeling-wise.

What was it like starting out as a model?

So scary and I had no idea where to start. I’m not the typical 5’10” woman that the modeling industry drools over. I’ve always been petite but curvy and so it was hard finding jobs in the beginning because a lot of agencies turn down anyone below certain height requirements.

What would you consider to be your biggest challenge as a model so far?

Sometimes it’s hard saying no. I do all my bookings and have always tried to keep my word when a shoot has been set in place. I tend to have bad luck that something else will turn up when I have work planned but when I commit to something, I go thru with it. Word of mouth is key in the business and I always want photographers/companies to know I stick to my word. I have only missed one shoot and that was due to a flat tire.
