Two identical twin sisters are taking the international modelling world by storm aged just 18.
Elisha and Renee Herbert, from Caloundra on the Sunshine Coast, started posting photos to Instagram when they were 14.
They quickly garnered around 10,000 followers each and were soon picked up by fashion brand Peppermayo.
Four years later, they boast a combined total of almost two million followers under the tutelage of Elite Model Management, which handles some of the most famous stars in the world.

‘It’s pretty crazy, we’re doing a lot of things that we never expected to happen,’ the girls told the Sunshine Coast Daily.
‘Everything happened pretty fast so now we’re just going with it, having fun and working. we’ve always wanted to travel and now it’s a part of our job to travel.’
The sisters, who originally wanted to become marine biologists before ‘falling into’ modelling, are triplets – but their brother leads a more private life studying Nanoscience at UNSW.
‘He’s not into that at all,’ Renee told Husskie. ‘He doesn’t let us take photos! We have like one photo of him.’

It may seem that the girls have pretty gilded lives – but being a social media influencer comes with its own pressures, namely competing with other models. Pictured: Elisha

It may seem that the girls have pretty gilded lives – but being a social media influencer comes with its own pressures.
‘I think comparing yourself to other people and other models is a tough thing – you don’t feel as confident,’ Renee said.
‘Girls are really competitive these days… especially if you’re involved in the influencer space,’ Elisha added.
Advising young aspiring models how to achieve their dream, the girls added: ‘Instagram is such a great platform to express yourself by posting content to allow people to follow along your journey and feel inspired by a certain lifestyle.’
Agent Joop Schouten said the pair are a ‘dream’ to work with and have a ‘phenomenal amount’ of work coming up.
