Australian Model, Graphic Designer & Photographer Carol Larsen

Hi Carol it is a pleasure to feature you on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

Hello! Well I’m a model, graphic designer and photographer! It’s great because all these things relate to each other and I love working on my own projects and getting creative. I was born and I live in Australia, but my mother is Filipino and my Father is Danish.

How did you get started into modeling?

I started doing random jobs for friends as I was told by a lot of people I should get into modelling, I did a few shoots and realised how much I loved it! So I began building my portfolio and networking with photographers and creatives around where I lived in Brisbane, a few months later I joined the agency SASS Management, so I’ve been modelling for about 5 years now.

What is the most challenging assignment or event you have done so far?

Probably the most challenging event I have done was a runway show for a Wella Hair competition in Melbourne, it was my first time doing runway and walking on stage, naturally I was a bit nervous, also having to wear a $30,000 dress with a 2 foot trail didn’t help (laughs) more pressure to not trip, fall AND ruin the dress. But it all went smoothly and we got second place in the competition!

What is the best compliment you have received?

That’s a tough one, other from my partner, who compliments me and supports me everyday and he always never fails to make me speechless, it’s just great to have people in the industry recognising what you do, saying how you have a unique look and great bone structure, how talented you are, and you always know what you’re doing, that’s when I know I’m doing my job well.

Funniest or most embarrassing thing that has happened to you?

I remember when I was around 12 years old, I decided that taking my half Rottweiler half German Shepherd dog for walk with roller blades on was a great idea! She ended up getting so excited as usual on her walks, I fell and she dragged me half way up the road, with my dad trying to catch up to help.

If you could choose to learn anything in this world, what will it be?

That’s a tough one, keeping it in the industry I would have to say special effects makeup, I love fantasy and creating my own concepts on things, I’m a bit of a geek. I already do photography and retouching, so what’s left? Makeup!

What is the lamest pickup line or attempt a guy has tried to know you?

Something that has happened a lot actually, is guys asking me what my background is, which sounds normal, then they say they’re surprised I don’t sound more Asian, it gets worse, they then finish it off by saying they love Asians. I never know what to say back to that other than okay then! I’m going in this direction now (laughs).

How will you describe an ideal date?

An ideal date to me honestly all depends on the person, if you enjoy being around that person it doesn’t matter what you do, I would be very happy with take out, video games, good music and conversation.

Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Carol. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

Henry Cavill (laughs) but in all seriousness I would have to style, having your own unique style that represents yourself as a person and an individual.
