April Model of the Month: Penny Mitchell

As the month of May has begun, the time has come to introduce April's Model of the Month, Melbourne based, Penny Mitchell. Penny was discovered whilst shopping by FRM Director, Stephen Bucknall. With striking features, including her gapped front teeth and big blue eyes, Stephen immediately saw Penny slotting into the market as a high-end model, with a commercial component.

While a new face at the agency, Penny describes modelling as “something I had always

wanted to do… I would regret it if I never tried.” She believes she is most suited to photographic work with her dream being the opportunity to model overseas. This dream may become a reality in the near future with Stephen currently looking at overseas offers for Penny and planning the year ahead.

When she is not modelling, Penny enjoys dancing, drawing and surfing. She says her favourite way to spend the weekend is at the beach and her favourite place to visit is Broome, Australia. Penny is currently studying at university. In five years time she hopes to have completed her degree and be living in Melbourne, working as a Veterinary Surgeon.

When asked about the items she can’t live without, Penny revealed, she never leaves the house without jewellery and eyeliner. Penny describes her personal style as “beachy in summer” and is inspired by model, Jessica Hart. She admits that her dream job would be modelling swimwear.
