Sicilian Claire
Maxim South Africa|August 2016

She loves beards, a quick-witted sense of humour, and is a live-in-the-moment kind of woman. What’s not to love about Claire Caruso and her bright eyes?

Claire, you describe yourself as Irish and Sicilian. What sort of physical attributes would you say are typical to your heritage?

Living in Chicago, one of the most diverse cities in America I believe it’s important to celebrate each other’s heritage. Aside from my fiery personality, my Irish and Sicilian heritage has blessed me with the gift of gab, bright eyes, a mischievous smile and very tanned skin in the summer.

You have done various styles of photo shoots. Which would you say you are most comfortable with?

With regards to genre I have modelled a variety of photo shoots. I would have to say my favourite is glamour. I feel comfortable in my own skin and glamour lets my naturally playful nature shine through. Although I have a thorough appreciation for fine art and fashion, I don’t take myself too seriously so I prefer glamour shoots to high fashion shoots.

Where is the best location that you have travelled to for a shoot?

I have been all over the world, but my favourite location I have travelled for a photo shoot would have to be southern California - there’s nothing like it. The scenery is stunning and the relaxed vibes of ocean cities are so calming. I think it’s important to stay connected to nature and the ocean is the perfect setting.
