Welcome everyone!
Thank you for coming to check out my website. My name is Vanessa Phil and I am from Dallas, TX.
I am currently represented by Prestigious Models, an international agency headquartered out of New York City. We are the largest Asian-American Talent agency in the world. Please provide me your contact information so I can have my manager contact you directly. You can also send a booking request online at prestigiousmodels.com.
After being born in Manila, Philippines, Vanessa and her family quickly arrived into the states with hopes of having better lives. They finally settled in Dallas where she is currently living.
"I definitely had a difficult time in school," she recalls, "In elementary school, everyone picked on me because I was an awkward child. It has gotten better in middle school, that's when I started to pick up confidence. High school was definitely where I almost reached home." During her first semester of senior year, she was discovered by a local agency and suggested she should sign up for classes immediately, but she had little money. "Fortunately, they bent the rules for me and told me the exact time and location for an open call." She attended and she was quickly signed into the agency. Her first big photoshoot was with a big-time makeup artist who has worked with Britney Spears, Cameron Diaz, and many more.
"This won't be the last of me," she claims, "I have many ideas and goals I'd like to reach outside modeling. I have a lot tricks up my sleeves."

- Yes! I am currently attending college and I'm majoring in Arts and Business. It's an odd couple but I feel like with my career choices, I can definitely go to the distance with these subjects.
- I suppose it all started when I was nine-years-old and I stayed up watching fashion shows and the Oscars. I wanted to also become an actress, but shortly after awhile I didn't think I could handle being an actress so I just decided to be a model. I prayed almost every night to reach that ideal height for the fashion world. Obviously, it didn't come true! I might get into acting for short and independent films, I'm thinking about it now!
- My father is half American-White, quarter Chinese, and quarter Vietnamese. As for my mother, she is Vietnamese with a quarter French.
- Of course I am! I know I can't model forever, so I want to help other models and people somehow. I haven't settled with my final decision on a profession yet, I'm deciding between my options.
- I have none! I appreciate all colors equally.
- No, it isn't! It's a part of my name but not my last name.
- Most of Europe and definitely London. I would also like to see Japan and Thailand!
- I like to grub on anything, but I'm really attracted to Thai and Japanese cuisine and tea sandwiches! Tehe.
- Believe it or not, I'm a total homebody. You rarely catch me clubbing or partying which I only do once in a blue moon. I love to read, watch television, and spend all my day in bed. I also like to workout here and there whenever I'm not too lazy.
- If you have dreams that you can reach, then work for what you want. Work for your dreams and don't stop working for it. Also have multiple goals so if one fails, you always have another one to back it up. Be motivated, reasonable, sensible, and book smart. Don't look at your downfalls as an excuse to back down, look at them as lessons.

I really enjoyed William's ability to "make scenes come alive". And in our work together, that's exactly what he captured. I thoroughly enjoyed working with William
"I've been wanting to work with Vanessa ever since I saw her in the Import Tuner magazine. She's not only stunning, but I appreciate the way she carries herself as a young woman."
