About Larrissa:

Larrissa's journey in the modeling industry spans over eight years, characterized by growth, learning, and unexpected opportunities. Unlike some who dive headfirst into modeling, her entry into this was gradual. Initially she started as a photographer's assistant and honing her skills as a hair and makeup artist, early experiences would lay the groundwork for her future as a professional model.

Modeling, at first, was merely a sideline, something she dabbled in for fun between assisting photographers and perfecting makeup techniques. However, as time went on, her passion for modeling blossomed, and she began to take it more seriously. It wasn't until the past couple of years that she fully embraced the potential of her modeling career.

In 2020, things began to shift significantly for Larrissa. Her dedication and hard work started to pay off as she noticed a surge in bookings and opportunities. This period marked a turning point in her journey, propelling her further into the modeling world.

Throughout the majority of her career, Larrissa chose to navigate the industry on her own terms, opting to be self-represented. It wasn't until February of 2023 that she decided to take the leap and sign with Endless Management, a decision that opened doors to new avenues and expanded her horizons.

Over the years, she's had the privilege of collaborating with a diverse range of brands, each experience contributing to her growth and shaping her perspective as a model. From The Lip Bar to Merrell, Torrid to Lilac Street Lashes, and Steelcase, each opportunity has been a unique chapter in her journey.

Larrissa's true passion lies in teaching and mentoring aspiring models. There's something incredibly fulfilling about sharing knowledge and empowering others to pursue their dreams. She believes in the importance of model advocacy, advocating for inclusivity, diversity, and ethical practices within the industry.
