Claudia Snellman
I work as a Senior Agent and director at Paparazzi Model Management.
What do you work on?
I am a team leader and mostly work on model bookings for both Finnish and International clients. I also work on developing new faces and scouting.
What would you change?
There are so many things I would change in the world right now. Maybe having more women as leaders would bring a bit more common sense to the way things are done?
But realistically, I can only change what's around me. Our industry can be quite hierarchical and harsh, and I'd love to make it a little more human. I try to do that in my own way by treating everyone with kindness and respect.
What do you love?
I love my family and friends, nature and good sleep. I love being active and making things happen.
Favorite model?
It's hard to pick just one because it changes all the time, but a few of my all-time favourites are Kate Moss, Lara Stone, Rianne Van Rompaey and of course, our own model Suvi Riggs.
She really has everything I think makes a great model. She's stunning, tall and naturally very slim, but most importantly she has a great personality. She's professional and takes her work seriously, but she's also very relaxed, easy-going and has a great sense of humour.
