Check Out Geo Rhone’s Story

Today we’d like to introduce you to Geo Rhone.

Hi Geo, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Born and raised in Meridian, Mississippi, my creative journey started with fashion and the world-building of video games. I later spent time in New York City, immersing myself in the industry and sharpening my unique creative lens.For a long time, I preferred being behind the camera. I practiced by taking photos of my friends and helping them set up YouTube videos using shoe boxes and janky, makeshift sets. I loved giving others their shine, and that era taught me to notice the tiny details most people miss.Eventually, I decided to pour that vision into myself. Today, I am a model and content creator based in Los Angeles. That early behind-the-scenes practice completely shaped how I model, giving me a deep understanding of lighting, angles, and production. My style and work are a fearless expression of the childhood ideas I used to repress—and I am here to keep pushing those boundaries.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It has not been a smooth road it was tough navigating coming from a quiet small town to a booming/busy city. It has literally been a complete 180 but it has given me an amazing work ethic.

It was also challenging navigating people not being as open/kind as people are from the south where everyone treats their neighbors like family.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am a Los Angeles-based model and content creator specializing in alternative fashion and editorial shoots. After years behind the lens due to insecurity, I chose to invest in myself and fearlessly showcase my alternative style as a Black creator, reclaiming my childhood imagination. My behind-the-scenes experience gives me a distinct director’s mindset, fueling my ultimate goal of stepping into creative direction while bringing a fresh, edgy perspective to the West Coast.

I’m most proud of saying that I was a signed model but I’ve made the most money and achieved more being freelance and betting on myself.

What was your favorite childhood memory?
My favorite childhood memory is when I lived in Hawaii for 5 months (military kid). It was the first time that I had a group of friends. And was one of the most peaceful times of my life because I decided to delete social media for whatever reason and I was just living in the present.
