Christen Harper was photographed in Barbados by Ben Watts. The Southern Californian was one of the winners of 2021’s Swim Search and introduced as a Rookie for SI Swimsuit in ’22.
Harper decided to pursue a career in modeling at 20 to help pay her way through college. She often received pushback from agents and clients to lose weight. Instead of shrinking herself down to fit into the standard sizing, Harper stayed true to herself and continued to pursue modeling knowing she was enough exactly how she was.
