This is an interview I've been dying to do! Mariah Marie is a model I found randomly on Instagram one day, and instantly fell in love. Her work described in one word: seductive. As you scroll through her Instagram, the only thing you're thinking is how unbelievable sexy she is! Well enough with the small talk, here is the interview:

M: My name is Mariah Marie
OTC: How old are you?
M: 21 years old
OTC: How did you get into modeling?
M: I started on Model Mayhem after being introduced to a few photographers through some friends.
OTC: Have you ever traveled out of the country?
M: I have only ever been to Vancouver, Canada - hopefully that changes very soon!
OTC: What is your favorite country?
M: Canada, but not just because I have been there haha! I also love Italy!
OTC: If you could travel anywhere in the world for free, where would you go and why?
M: I would go to Fiji. I love tropical climates and beaches. I have been told that Fiji is a must see and just absolutely beautiful.
OTC: What has been your favorite photoshoot/campaign so far?
M: My favorite photo shoot so far was in LA with a promotional photo shoot for Eye Candy the photography (Ryan Astamendi) was so nice and amazing!
OTC: Is having a good connection with the photographer important to you?
M: Yes, extremely important! From my experience, some of the best pictures are when the model and photographer can connect and be open about what they want to accomplish in the photo.
OTC: Who is your favorite photographer and why?
M: Ohhhh such a hard question, I have so many! There is no way I can pick just one!
OTC: Is it awkward taking nude photos in front of a photographer and their team?
M: Not at all, I think maybe the first 3-4 shoots can sort of be, but everyone wants to get the shot and it's nice knowing everyone is supporting you.
OTC: Do you have a special ritual you do before or after a photoshoot?
M: Before, I will take a bath the night before with a face mask. Then, I light candles and read to make sure I am relaxed and in the right mindset. Afterwards, I don't really have anything set other than wash my face and go eat a nice delicious dinner.
OTC: Which of your Instagram photos is your favorite and why?
M: I love my most recent work with Kyle b smith (@libraego) the photos are different than what I normally do and they aren't super glam they are more so editorial fashion.
OTC: Are you signed to an agency?
M: I am not... Yet! I have made the decision to try and get signed, so wish me luck! Haha
OTC: Have you made any friends in the modeling industry? How do you help each other?
M: Yes, I became friends with photographers and a few models. I recently made a friend that is a makeup artist (@styledbydakota) and so we are working as a team to just kill it. She slays my makeup every time!
OTC: Do you practice poses or do they just come naturally to you?
M: Most of it is natural, I just think of it as I am there. But I have practiced poses from magazines before when I feel like I want something new!
OTC: Who is your favorite model at the moment?
M: I love Candice Swanepoel, she is absolutely beautiful and it is my goal to become a Victoria secret angel.
OTC: How has Instagram contributed to your success?
M: It's free marketing so it allows me to showcase my work with photographers and it has given me opportunities that I don't think I would have gotten without it. For example, this interview, as well as a few others, Eye Candy, as well as Follow Model.
OTC: Tell me about your diet and workout routine
M: My diet is fairly healthy. I love food and I love eating, so I have one too many cheat days, but what can I say, I love food! I workout around 4-5 days in which I do lift, but not to build big muscle. Only to tone and firm.
OTC: Would you rather model swim suits or lingerie?
M: I love lingerie! There are so many different kinds, and they are all so pretty.
OTC: Victoria’s Secret or Calvin Klein?
M: Victoria's Secret. I'm going to be an angel one day ;)

OTC: Do you go clubbing a lot?
M: Not at all, probably a few times a month!

OTC: Would you ever buy a guy a drink at a club/bar?
M: Sure, I haven't ever done it, but I don't see why not.
OTC: Tell me about your craziest night out
