We had the good fortune of connecting with Tymarri Holmes and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tymarri, Let’s talk about principles and values – what matters to you most?
The most important value to me is being true to myself and enjoying what I do! I feel like if I’m not enjoying myself then why model. If you stand for nothing then you’ll fall for anything. I only participate in shoots that align with my personal beliefs and how I feel about myself. I know how I would like to be represented and I won’t participate in a shoot that presents me in any other way.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I think what sets me apart from most people is that I love to do all kinds of shoots: Creative, Fashion, etc. I love stepping out of my comfort zone! I started modeling almost 2 years ago, I’ve had a lot of ups and downs but I wouldn’t change anything. It hasn’t been easy but it’s been worth it. No matter what was thrown at me I kept looking forward, kept practicing and kept learning to make sure each shoot was better than the last. I want the world to know that no matter what concept is thrown at me I will execute & deliver!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would take her to Trap Karaoke for sure! It is a lot of fun and definitely worth the wait! Restaurant wise I would take her to The Southern Gentleman and Punch Bowl Social! The food and drinks at both are amazing! I would also take her to The Slutty Vegan because you have to try it atleast once!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would love to give a shout out to my bestfriend since 2nd grade! Whenever I’m having a hard time or feeling like I’m in a creative funk she has always been there. She is my biggest supporter and I can’t thank her enough!
