Who is The First Wife?

As a model, Sabrina has worked with world-renowned brands including Harper’s Bazaar, Sports Illustrated, Victoria’s Secret, Vogue, Maybelline, Chanel, and Pepsi and was recognized as the “World’s Highest Paid Lip Model” during an interview on The Big Idea with Donnie Deutsch. Sabrina’s career as a model has taken her all over the world, including stints in New York, Shanghai, Milan, Miami and Los Angeles. Sikora spent the last 15 years living and working between Hong Kong and Singapore but it’s now Vermont that she calls home!

In 2004, Sabrina began her career as a professional photographer, utilizing all the skills she learned while working with leading photographers in the fashion industry. Drawing from her vast knowledge and personal experience of life as a top model, she works directly with brands on how to showcase their products at their finest, and with clients on how to make them look and feel their absolute best on film. Her strength lies in making each shoot a positive and uplifting experience, ensuring that all her subjects feel comfortable in front of the camera by offering easy-to-follow direction in movement and expression that brings out the inner model in everyone.

In 2015, Sabrina consolidated her photography career by founding First Wife Studios Ltd. in Hong Kong’s Chai Wan area, and has been featured in many top publications including The New York Times, Vogue India, WWD, How to Spend It, Hong Kong Tatler, Prestige, South China Morning Post, Her World Singapore, Elle Men HK, Expat Living, and Home Journal. She has also worked with local and international brands such as Marks and Spencer, Tumi, Club Monaco, L’Dezen Jewelry, Natasha Moor Cosmetics, Maisha Concept, and Fervor Montreal. She recently relocated First Wife Studios to Vermont.

Building on her love of fashion, photography, and her background in modeling Sabrina blends these skill sets together into a vibrant Instagram feed that shines the light on local and independent labels. She styles the looks and self-shoots using a tripod and remote showcasing mostly women-led businesses. Through this she hopes to introduce her followers to smaller brands and local creatives so they can support women and small business in their area and beyond.
