Elvanie was scouted on a festival in the Dutch city of Utrecht. As a 13-year-old and ‘awkward’ teenager she was picked out of the crowd by a Dutch modeling agency. With on and off periods, she has been working as a model for 2 decades.

The first shoot Elvanie ever did is still very special for her—a cover shoot for a well-known magazine—especially when she saw herself in the store between all the other magazines. She is experienced as both a runway, as well as a ‘print’ model.

Her favorite sports is reformer pilates, this is what she does weekly. Besides this, she loves skiing ‘to hit the slopes’. The most important things in her life are, cliché but true, her son, her family and dearest friends. Love, happiness and health are the key words. When she is not at work, she spends time with friends and family, reads a book or goes out doing fun things. She loves her job and always has a bright smile on her face. She never fails to send out positive vibes to the people around her and loves to create beautiful things together.
