I was born and raised in a small town in Venezuela called Carora. At the age of 13, I embarked on my modeling journey with fashion shows in Venezuela for Wella and Schwarzkopf Silueta. Following in my older sister's footsteps, who participated in Miss Venezuela 1999, I also entered beauty pageants, including Miss Centroccidental. When I turned 20, I moved to Santiago de Chile, dedicating myself full-time to modeling for renowned fashion designers, international brands, magazines, TV commercials, movies, music videos, and fashion shows.
At 23, I signed a contract with Munich Models and lived there for a few months. Subsequently, I moved to Milan, working with Elite Models. After that season, I joined Elite Thailand, eventually deciding to make it my home due to my love for the country. I've had the privilege of working with numerous brands, magazines, TV commercials, and even for the Princess of Thailand, Sirivannavari Nariratana Rajakanya. During my years in Bangkok, I also worked in other countries, including Spain with Antonio Banderas, Sri Lanka Fashion Week with Bibi Russell, Ágatha Ruiz de la Prada, and India with Deepika Padukone.
In 2014, I traveled to NYC for the first time with ONE Management, and the dream of participating in NYFW came true, along with many other jobs for famous brands like L'Oréal, Nike, and Garnier.

Since a very young age (11), I discovered another passion that I've cultivated during my global travels—photography. Today, it's my primary focus.

Testimonials

  • “So grateful I gifted myself a photography session with Pilar. She transformed me into a true model for the day, and the resulting photos still leave me in awe. Having experienced commercial photo shoots from the other side of the lens before, I can confidently say that Pilar's work stands out. Now, I know her secret firsthand - her years of experience as a top fashion model. She knows the tips and tricks to guide me into confident poses, and her extreme kindness and ease in her own skin made the entire experience feel effortless. She even helped style my wardrobe, hair, and makeup for an absolutely exquisite experience. Thank you, I highly recommend her!”

  • It was such a great experience shooting with Pilar, because I got to work with an excellent photographer and phenomenal model. She was the creative director and stylist for our shoot and I couldn’t be more grateful for the beautiful pictures I got to add on to my portfolio. She provided top level coaching during the shoot, key tips and advice that improved my work in many ways. A year later and she’s still my favorite photographer to collaborate with.

  • During my photoshoot with Pilar I felt really comfortable. Of course at first I felt very shy, but she definitely helped me come out of my shell and allow me to reach my full potential while being so supportive and so kind behind the camera. I loved the way my pictures came out and I couldn’t have asked for better pictures. It was definitely an honor to shoot with Pilar!!
