Tabria Majors was photographed by Yu Tsai in Belize. 

A finalist in the 2018 Swim Search, Tabria Majors traveled to Belize with photographer Yu Tsai along with other contenders in that year’s open casting call. Her feature in Central America resulted in a series of gorgeous images captured along the shore and in the water. 

Majors admitted that before submitting herself to Swim Search, she questioned if she could make a career out of modeling. “To think just a little over a year ago I was still working part-time as a maid, literally scrubbing floors after I completed photo shoots, constantly questioning if this ‘modeling thing’ was going to work out,” she wrote on Instagram alongside a carousel of images from her feature. 

We’re so lucky that Majors stuck to her true passion and continues to do so through her modeling work presently. The Tennessee native has since worked with notable brands like Cay Skin, Savage X Fenty and Cupshe. The 33-year-old is also a new mom, having given birth to a child, whom she shares with partner Tre Hale, in late August.

Majors offered some sage wisdom for others who are pursuing their own passions in that same Feb. 2018 Instagram post. “I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity and want to remind everyone to always believe in yourself, trust the process, and never give up,” she wrote.

Below are a few of our favorite snaps from Majors’s SI Swimsuit feature in Belize.
