BELLA: What is you favorite part of modeling so far? Annamarie: My favorite part of modeling would be the feeling and excitement of being on stage ,in front of the camera and meeting so many people!
BELLA: What don’t you like about modeling? Annamarie: What I don’t like about modeling is how many fashion shows require a height requirement. I don’t find it very fair! Some of the best models are under 5’9 but most of us never get a chance to showcase our talents because we are shunned because of our height. Great things come in small packages!
