Ann Teak - Nude modeling at 50+, physical & mental health, Ageism & human connection

Ann Teak - Nude modeling at 50+, physical & mental health, Ageism & human connection

Author: Kristy Jessica November 16, 2023 Duration: 1:09:32
Ann Teak is one of the rare professional models over 50, which makes her unique in our community. I had so many questions for her! She has modeled for film photographers back in her college days, but didn't serious about modeling until much later in life - after a career, marriage, a mortgage, having kids and all that!  Hollywood film noire is one of her favorite genres, as well as artistic nudes. Ann loves modeling and takes really good care of her physical and mental health so that she can really bring value to a photo shoot.  Human connection and love for art drives Ann to continue modeling. She does not like working with superficial people who tend to discriminate against her because of her age.  Check out Ann Teak (formerly known as Vox Serene) on instagram! http://www.instagram.com/ann.teak.noire Ann is also on Model Society (the best website for figurative fine art nudes!) http://www.modelsociety.com/model/vieille-modele  Cover image by Kevin Albinder

Hosted by Kristy Jessica, Sunrise Life-beyond skin deep conversations with freelance nude models pulls back the curtain on a profession often shrouded in mystery and misconception. This isn't a series of sensationalized tales, but a grounded space where traveling freelance models speak candidly. They share the full spectrum of their lives-the genuinely awesome and liberating moments alongside the occasionally creepy or challenging encounters on the road. Each episode reveals how these individuals navigate the same complex human struggles as anyone else, from financial instability and social anxiety to overcoming shame or leaving toxic relationships. The core of this podcast is found in that raw confiding, where vulnerability becomes a strength. By focusing on these deeper conversations, the series moves past the surface to explore how connection and understanding are built. Listeners will hear authentic dialogues that are by turns entertaining, thought-provoking, and deeply relatable, reminding us of the shared experiences that unite us all. Tune in for a unique perspective that artfully blends personal narrative with broader themes of society, art, and culture.
