Tifne Lynn Exclusive Interview
Where are you from, and how would you describe your life growing up?
I grew up on the east side of Cincinnati, Oh. It was more of a rural area and I spent a lot of my time with family even further east. Not a total farm girl but I sure wasn’t afraid to get myself dirty. Had the best childhood a kid could ask for. Being out that way we had bonfires, family cookouts and all the good country food.
How did you find your way in front of a camera, modeling?
It all started out being a guinea pig for a couple girls in college. They needed a model for their photography class. It was then I became interested. Worked at a place where a man and his wife were a photography team and ask to create some creative glamour looks. They were the best and it was then that I was hooked.
What do you like best about being a model?
I like the creative outlet the most in modeling. I was always the creative type and loved expressing myself through different hair and clothing styles. I love the idea of seeing something and it become inspiration for a photo shoot.
Besides modeling what is the most important thing in your life? Do you have any unusual talents?
The most important thing to me above modeling is my little boy. I strive to always be the best for him. Not sure this is an unusual talent but I am a pretty dang good multitasker. I get stuff done! Ha!
We all need support in life. Where do you get your support? What or who inspires you?
Family overall is supportive of my modeling. They’ve accepted the fact many moons ago and I’ll ultimately do what it is that I have my mind set on. My family can be pretty open minded, may not totally agree all the time but still accept things at the end of the day. In general I am inspired by the go getters. The type of people that seek happiness and reach for it despite what others think.
What do you think is the most challenging thing about modeling and what advice would you give to new models?
Personally my most challenging thing about modeling is the ability to get away and travel for work. My little one comes first and that will never change.
Advice I’d give to new models is look at photography work instead of who might appear to be popular or have a huge following. Those numbers can disappear within a minute so seek the styles you like and want to create first. You’ll enjoy and appreciate your time modeling more that way, creating good quality work and learn in the process. Never loose sight of what modeling truly is. Be exclusive.
What is your favorite way to relax? What do you do for fun?
My favorite way to relax is to be outdoors. It doesn’t have to be anything crazy recreational. A simple walk or hike does wonders for my mind, body and soul. For fun, I love hanging out with my family. We can do the simplest of things and it’s always a good time and guaranteed some laughing. I love it, those simple things in life..
You look amazing. What do you recommend for those wanting to keep in shape?
After having a kid AND getting older it does require more work. I try to be as active as I can and I always eat intuitively, listen to your body and have that piece of chocolate cake.
What would you consider your strongest attribute? What do guys compliment you most on?
I’m always told how beautiful I am by not even trying. So maybe my ability to be myself in this industry. You have to have a solid backbone because not everyone will like you and you have to be good with that. Usually, I’m the one asking myself if I like them. Ha! I’m very particular with who I share my energy and time with.
Anything about your heritage, ethnicity, or nationality that you feel people would like to know?
I consider myself a mutt. Ha! I don’t fully know, one day I’ll try and find out. I do know that I am part Cherokee Indian, French and Welsh. Again, all of the above.
Please share something about yourself that may surprise others. What is the most adventurous thing you have ever done?
Usually when music is brought up people are surprised to know that little ole me enjoys the metal and metal core genre. I can’t help it. I’ve always liked more heavier types of music. I enjoy some country tunes too.. it’s in my blood. Growing up that is what most of my family listened to, heck and played! My grandfather played steel guitar and in a house band. He jammed out and worked with many great well known country artists. Pretty cool to say.
What are your dreams and goals and ambitions?
Honestly it’s to be happy, live happily and seek happiness. I want to enjoy my life. As we know, we only get one. So why live unhappy?
If you were in a magical machine that could transport you to any place and time imaginable, where would you love to be? Why?
I think it would be pretty cool to go to Italy. It’s just one of those places. It isn’t something I couldn’t do I just haven’t made it a point to go. I love the style, architecture, art and of course amazing Italian food you hear of. I was an art major in college and studied many artists dating back and from that country.
Are you a naughty girl, or a nice girl 😉 ?
Ha! I am both. The best of both worlds. There’s a time and place for everything. Always have a dirty sense of humor and mind.. 😉
What’s one thing about yourself that everyone should know?
That I beat to my own drum. I usually don’t have to tell anyone that characteristic about myself. They can figure that out pretty quickly for themselves. I’m not afraid to eat or do most things for that matter alone. In fact, sometimes I prefer it that way.
What does being published in this Modelz View magazine mean to you?
It means a lot to be published on cineleton.com . I grew up with a dad and two brothers that love/enjoy cars and bikes. In fact, Saleen Mustang belongs to my dad. YES he knew AND was present for the photoshoot ha!
