When most models walk into the photographer's studio, they apply makeup to their faces. Ellen Sirot puts makeup on her feet. She is one of New York City's busiest foot models, also know as a parts model.
If she's on her toes, she can earn up to $300 an hour. The preperation for her job involves putting gobs of cream on her feet every night before bedtime, covering them with plastic bags, and sleeping with them elevated.
She gets a pedicure regularly and never wears high heels. This is a gal who puts her best foot forward every workday hour.
