- Rowald: How are you today?
- Toni: doing great, thanks for asking. =)
- Rowald: When and how did you start
modeling?
- Toni: I started over 3 years ago. It seemed like a
fun thing I could get into, so I pursued it.

do?

bikini, glamour, artistic, etc... I take photographs as well, as a
hobbyist.
- Rowald: Did you take any classes for
modeling or acting?
- Toni: I did have some formal training, nothing
extensive. Something like a 3 months weekend course.
- Rowald: What do you do to make a shoot work
out?
- Toni: Be professional yet relaxed. Just go with
the flow and try my best to achieve the look we are going for.
- Rowald: Does a shoot make you nervous?
- Toni: Not really, unless the conditions are not
very safe - like hanging on a precarious cliff or something. And cold
temperatures ruin my concentration.

moment?
- Toni: I enjoyed travelling to exotic locales for
some of my assignments, like the Caribbean or Ibiza.

far? How has the industry treated you so far?
- Toni: As long as you have a good head on your
shoulders, things are very enjoyable.

time. What else do you do?
- Toni: I'm also a Realtor. I run my website
www.tonileigh.com, and I also trade stocks and options.
- Rowald: What are the worst assumptions
people make about models?
- Toni: Well I can't speak for everyone, but I do
get a lot of stereotyping when I first meet someone - think dumb blonde
jokes.

artists?

the French impressionist masters.

artist?

pursue?

love science and electronic gadgets.

movies, play video games, travel, do graphic design, practice digital
photography, and cook. O and I eat a lot.

to?
- Toni: I've been fortunate enough to visit many

when you go out?

bunch of girlfriends so you could say we attract a bit of attention.
- Rowald: Have you been disrespected by men
because of modeling?
- Toni: I do get some random messages on my myspace
or some other form of "faceless communication" that are disrespectful. It's
just cries for attention I think.

bluegrass.

adventure?
- Toni: Can't tell you about that one. Haha.

dreams about?

different, and always exciting. For instance last night I dreamt I was hanging
out on a huge hotel terrace, suddenly the ground split open under me and the
terrace collapsed into the Earth. I was running frantically away from the crack
and the gaping earth. I have a lot of flying dreams.

all the maintaining is done by me, I don't need anyone to cater to me or
anything.
- Rowald: Would you make your hands dirty in
order to get something done rather than waiting for help?
- Toni: Of course, dirt can be washed away, I'm an
impatient person so waiting is worse.
