Content creator Marissa Ayers recently made her professional modeling debut, participating in a photoshoot featuring New York Giants merchandise. Ayers, the girlfriend of Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart, shared details and footage from the experience in a TikTok video.
The photoshoot was for Terez, a fashion brand that creates sportswear for women and girls. Ayers described the environment as positive and supportive, noting that the team providing her hair and makeup were impressed it was her first time modeling. She showcased a variety of looks, including a vintage-inspired ensemble with a Giants tee and varsity jacket, as well as a denim Giants jacket.
Ayers expressed that she felt a natural inclination towards modeling, stating, "I think I’ve always had the itch to get into modeling and so something just started feeling really natural to me." She added, "I literally think I want to do this every single day. This might be my calling. I don’t know." She felt honored to be chosen as the face for the Giants line.
During the shoot, Ayers also had a chance encounter with Ali Brunson, another model who was working on a Knicks-themed portion of the photoshoot. The two women posed for photos together.
Ayers, who was first linked to Dart in the fall and confirmed their relationship on social media in January, also shared a clip of herself throwing a football while wearing Giants apparel. She quipped about the action, "Obviously, I had to get some reps in, duh, I’m the quarterback’s girlfriend, of course!" The couple made their first public appearance together at the NFL Honors ceremony in February.
