TAYLOR KRAEMER - Up and Coming Super Model
Taylor Kraemer stands 5ft 11inches and wears a size 2. At the age of 16 she's already walked the runways of Fashion Week NY to Fashion Week Milan. Although she's already accomplished more than many models accomplish through out their careers, Taylor still retains her humble Cincinnati girl attitude.
HT - How old were you when you started modeling?
Taylor - Seven
HT - Did you always want to be a model?
Taylor - No. I got into it through my neighbor at the time. It's a lot of fun and something to do.
HT - If you weren't modeling, what would you be doing instead?
Taylor - If I wasn't traveling with my modeling, I would still be in theater because I love to be on stage and act and sing.
HT - What was your first big time runway show, and how did you feel right before going out on the runway for the first time during that show.
Taylor - It was Oscar De La Renta resort show in New York this past June. I was really excited because I was walking with some really big girls in the the industry like Karlie Kloss. I wasn't nervous. I loved the anticipation backstage before the show. So much goes into such a short show.
HT - What is your favorite designer to work with and why?
Taylor - Marc Jacobs because when he is designing and working he sings to whatever is on his Ipod and it makes him like a regular person even though he is super famous!
HT - What has been your favorite project so far?
Taylor - Marc by Marc because the clothes are really cool and I got to keep the cute pink bow I wore in my hair. And at the Marc by Marc show Lady Gaga and Madonna were there. I got my picture taken with Lady Gaga.
HT - How did you get started in the modeling industry?
Taylor - My old neighbor worked at a modeling agency and she took my picture in when I was 7. They called and starting booking me with Elder Beerman.
HT - Is it true that model apartments are basically apartments that cram as many models in as possible?
Taylor - Yeah, model apartments are not something I would recommend unless you have no other alternatives. I have been lucky enough that when I travel I have stayed in apartments or hotels by myself with my mom.
HT - Do you consider your work glamorous?
Taylor - Not at all. The finished product is glamorous, but not all the work that goes into it. Running to castings in the rain, going to fittings that never seem to end and late nights. Your hair gets damaged and your skin gets sore after awhile from all the makeup going on and off.
HT - There's a misconception that modeling isn't a very difficult job. Do you think modeling is a hard job?
Taylor - Yes, very hard but worth it in the end. Other than what I said previously, it can be an emotional roller coaster because you might think you are booked for a show and at the last minute they can pull you. Or you may have been told you didn't book a show and then they call you last minute and tell you that your are confirmed! There is no sense to fashion and that's why you need to take a break every now and then to get your mind back!
HT - Anybdy that you'd like to recognize?
Taylor - I'd like to make a shout out to my family and friends for rooting me on the whole way and googling me...weirdest thing ever!!! And to Chris Kaufman (Heyman Talent Runway and Model Placement) who got the wheel rolling on this!
Here are a few accomplishments of Taylor Kraemer's: She did looks for several designers while in New York...Vera Wang, Marc Jacobs. She also did looks for Louie Vutton in Paris. She ran into some celebrites at her shows which was fun...Lady Gaga and Madonna came to the Marc Jacobs show, Mary Kate Olson (or her twin?), Victoria Beckham and Gwenith Paltrow were at Burberry. She also walked with some of the top girls in the industry right now...Karlie Kloss, Channel Iman, Katie Fogerty. She went to a fit to confirm and Naomi Campbell was in the same room. She got to meet many leading designers like Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein deisigner, Stella McCartney, Oscar De La Renta, DVF, Narcisco Rodriquez, Issac Mizirahi and a host of others. She met photographer Mario Testino at a casting and then talked to him again at D&G.
