If you have a cool personality, the photographer will want to work with you because he or she will have more fun on set.

I want to save up money. This is probably long-term, but I for sure want to get into real estate and flip houses and start doing stuff like that. So I'm saving money. And, you know, being a kid at the same time. I want people to know I'm literally just a 16-year-old punk who's trying to hang out with some homies on the weekends.

I'm in a band with my three sisters called the Atomics, which is awesome.

Walking is pretty easy. You just have to be confident, like not caring. And honestly, people think about their walk too much, so they try to do something really interesting, but the designers hate it.

After I built up a following on Instagram, I realized it's a good way to talk to your fans. I always try to keep the conversation going - they're really happy when that happens.

Fashion is a way you can express yourself, so it's good stuff, you know?

I love my name. I didn't used to when I was a kid. People called me Lucky Charms, after the breakfast cereal.

One of my favorite shots was on these, like, lava rocks - but moss was growing on it, and I was lying on it, and it was really green, and the picture was really pretty.

I'm a professional model, but I still take crappy selfies.

My parents have seen me flirt with girls in front of them, so they're kind of used to it.

I'm always trying to be a good example to people and always trying to do something cool. I really don't want to end up like that cliche celebrity teenager kid who is a bad example.

A lot of my friends hate my music. I have weird taste.

Most of my friends are in the industry - photographers, models, stylists, and social media kids.

When I moved to L.A. a few years ago, my sister hung out with a couple of people with big followings. I'd hang out with them, too, and eventually was tagged in a picture with Acacia Brinley, who does a lot on YouTube. She got me from, like, 6,000 to 17,000 followers over a couple of days.

Being in this whole fashion industry, seeing it firsthand, I never realized just how much work goes into everything.

Designers want their clothes and their shows to be absolutely perfect, exactly as they imagined, and there is a great deal of work that goes into doing that. Some collections can tell a whole story, from the first look to the last. The way the colors and the clothes transition is very interesting.

I will never work in a cubicle.
