Today we’d like to introduce you to Lucas Prince.
Hi lucas , thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I started my modelling career two years ago, and I quickly had the opportunity to work internationally, spending ten months in India and two months in Egypt. These experiences were incredibly valuable — I learned a lot about modelling through a wide variety of shoots, from TV commercials like Royal Enfield and MG Motors to numerous campaigns and e-commerce projects.
Through the commercials I worked on, I also discovered acting, and it became a real passion for me. That’s why I began taking acting lessons at Cours Florent in Paris, as well as improvisation classes, to develop my skills and explore performance more deeply.
Alongside the artistic side of my career, I also work as a fitness coach in Paris. I specialize in electrostimulation training, which is a full workout using a suit that sends gentle electrical impulses to activate all the muscles simultaneously while my clients perform functional exercises. It’s an efficient method that fits perfectly with busy schedules.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
At the beginning, it definitely wasn’t smooth. It was actually very difficult to get contacts in Paris to start modelling, so I decided to participate in a pageant called “Modèle Élégance France.” I finished in third place, which helped me gain some visibility. After that, I met a photographer who introduced me to an agency director in Paris.
But even with an agency, it was still complicated to get paid jobs. I did receive some offers, but many of them came from people with bad intentions — not professional at all.
After a while, I met a photographer named Tom Saint Clair, who became my agent and helped me avoid the wrong situations. He introduced me to Marius Bourgogne, director of the Mother International agency Renaissance, and that’s how I got my first contract in India.
India was a big challenge because I didn’t speak English at the time, and I had to learn very quickly how to pose efficiently for e-commerce shoots. But I adapted — and I did it.
Now I’m back in Paris. The competition is tough, there are many models, but I keep moving forward step by step
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Lucas Prince?
Im working as freelancer fitness coach in Paris. I collaborate with an organisation called “Ayoro”, they are specialised in electrostimulation. 4 months ago they approached me via linkedIn and i did really love the philosophy just based on wellness, customisation and luxury. Indeed, i’m coaching the clients directly to their apartment and im customised all the session following their energy, their goal or they need.
That’s what i love to do, give my knowledges to help people to feeling better physically and mentally.
Besides this collaboration im doing personal fitness coaching without the electrostimulationsuit, i follow my client at the gym or i do outdoor coaching as well, then i make distance program for people who knows already the fitness bases. I also help people about nutrition, Im making program with easy, healthy and tasty recipes.

Can you talk to us about how you think about risk?
The biggest risk i took was to stop my studies to travel to India and start my passion: modelling.
I got my master degree in sport but i quit and didn’t finish my studies to become physical education teacher because i had this opportunity to leave in India. I never travelled out of France before, i didn’t know how to speak english so when i said it to my parents they were chocked of course..
So new language, new culture, new food, new peoples, new home, new activities, everything was different and it took me a while before to manage everything but i did it.
