q&a
Name: Gabby Dover
Agency: Oui Management (Paris)
Hometown: Berry, New South Wales
Introduce yourself briefly: I’m Gabby Dover. From the country town of Berry on the east coast of Australia. I’m 18 and was thrown into modeling fresh out of high school less than a year ago and honestly it has been a whirlwind, I am still catching up to the reality of my lifestyle. It’s crazy.
What do you get out of modeling? The adventure. The non-stop pace. For me it’s not about validation it’s about the experiences I get out of it.
Was it easy for your family to understand your job? I don’t think it’s easy for anyone to understand this job unless it’s you. In saying that however, my family don’t need to understand the ins and outs of it to give me the support I need.
Your definition of happiness: Now any answer to this will be cliche unless I answer with something like living in a house made fully out of candy. Although that IS complete happiness, it is not my answer. Haha. My definition of happiness is peace.
the booker says
Australian model Gabby Dover is like an actress. During a shooting she is able to impersonate different characters in a very intuitive and personal way, which makes her so special to the photographers who shoot her.
