Meet Apolo_Makris, a cam model with over 3 years of experience. He has won several awards and recognitions both within his agency and on his platform. He’s been named Model of the Week three times, ranked Top of the Month on multiple occasions, and received various bonuses for performance and internal contests. In June, he achieved a major milestone by placing #5 in the Flirt Summit, making him one of the top male models and fulfilling a personal dream that, although tough, is not impossible to achieve. Beyond his success, Apolo stands out for his authenticity, emotional intelligence, and grounded personality. His genuine energy and dedication to creating meaningful connections have earned him not just fans, but loyal supporters who admire both his work and who he is.

What qualities have helped you succeed in the cam world?
“I think authenticity has been key. I don’t try to fit into a mold, I show who I am, and that really connects with people. Additionally, consistency, good humor, the ability to listen effectively, and perseverance are key when things slow down. Empathy and adaptability have made a big difference.”

How do you manage stress both on and off cam?
“On cam, I try to stay focused on the moment and on the connection with my viewers. Creating a comfortable environment, with good music, soft lighting, and giving myself permission to enjoy what I do, helps a lot. Off cam, I do things that relax me like spending time with family, listening to music, watching documentaries or movies, or simply disconnecting from my phone for a while. Balance is key to avoid burnout.”

How do you keep the spark alive in relationships or online play?
“I like to surprise, switch up the dynamics, and play with imagination. I think the key is not falling into routine, keeping the desire alive with small gestures, provocative words, and moments where everything else fades away. In online connections, subtle flirting, genuine attention, and thoughtful details make all the difference. I always aim to create an experience, not just a moment.”

What are you working on right now?
“I’m focusing on improving my content, creating more personalized experiences, and connecting even more with my followers. I’m also exploring new ideas for themed shows and putting a lot of care into both my visual and emotional image. Everything adds up in this world, and I like growing step by step.”

What’s your biggest challenge in this industry?
“The biggest challenge has been maintaining emotional balance and not taking everything personally. There are great days, and others where things don’t flow as expected. Learning not to compare myself, protecting my energy, and understanding that growth is a process have been part of my journey. There’s also the challenge of staying relevant without losing your essence.”

What do your fans like most about you?
“I think what they like most is that I’m authentic. I don’t pretend to be someone I’m not, and I always try to be present, to listen, and to make the person on the other side feel good. Plus, many tell me that my smile and energy captivate them… and that I have a very unique way of making them feel special.”

Would you recommend your cam site to someone starting in the industry? Why or why not?
“Yes, I’d absolutely recommend them—but with the clarification that it’s not an easy or quick path. The platforms I work with offer great opportunities, tools, visibility, and rewards if you are truly committed. Thanks to that, I’ve been able to grow, get recognition, earn bonuses, and stand out month after month. But all that comes with discipline, strategy, and consistency. If someone’s willing to take it seriously, they can definitely achieve a lot.”

What’s your ideal getaway for fun or romance?
“My ideal getaway would be somewhere peaceful but with a touch of mystery and sensuality… something like a mountain cabin with a fireplace, or a beach trip where I can disconnect from the world, feel free, and enjoy without rushing. For me, romance is in the details, the looks, the connection… not so much the place, but how you feel in it.”

How do you manage jealousy or the cam lifestyle in your relationships?
“With lots of communication and clarity from the start. This job can trigger insecurities if you don’t talk openly, so I try to be very transparent about my limits and what this work means to me. If I’m with someone, I need them to understand that what I do doesn’t take away from what I feel. Trust is the foundation, and if there isn’t any, it’s really hard for it to work.”

What’s your daily life like as a cam model?
“It depends on the day, but I usually like to take my time before going live. I get ready, set the right vibe, review ideas for shows or interactive games, and focus on maintaining the best possible energy. There’s also time for editing content, engaging on social media, planning promotions, and taking care of myself, because this job also requires emotional stability.”

What’s the best advice you’ve given or received?
“One of the best pieces of advice I got was: ‘Be yourself, but take care of yourself first.’ In this job, it’s easy to give too much, and you have to remember we’re human too. So I try to give my best without losing myself, always respecting my limits.”

How do you stay focused and achieve your goals?
“By keeping my reasons for doing this clear and reminding myself how far I’ve come. I set realistic goals, organize my time effectively, and strive to learn as much as I can from other models and from my fans’ behavior. I focus on growing not just financially, but also as a person, and on creating a space where I feel good too.”

How long have you been camming?
“I’ve been working as a webcam model for 3 and a half years. It’s been a journey of significant personal and professional growth. I started out really curious, and little by little, I began to understand the industry, connect with my followers, and build my own style. In that time, I’ve achieved important goals.”

What features would you like platforms to add?
“I’d love for them to implement more tools for personalized interaction with loyal users, like more creative automated messages, better options for in-show dynamics, and more detailed stats to better understand fan behavior. Also, promote traffic more.”

What’s the most important lesson you’ve learned about love?
“That the most important love is self-love. If I don’t value or care for myself, it’s really hard to build something healthy with someone else. I’ve learned that love isn’t about losing yourself in the other person, but about sharing who you are without losing your identity. And real love doesn’t hurt or limit, it lifts you up and makes you feel free.”

What’s your typical day like as a cam model?
“I start by organizing my room—it’s my personal space, and I love for it to be clean and tidy. I prepare a herbal tea, recite my daily affirmations, then shower, apply some skincare, and get ready to go to the gym to boost my energy. After the gym, I usually run my morning errands and grab a healthy meal, because what you put into your body keeps you going throughout the day. Later, I freshen up again, get ready, maybe read a bit, watch TV, study, or rest a little before preparing to go online. Before every session, I have my own little ritual. I’m very connected to energy, so I like to light palo santo or incense to cleanse the space of negative vibes, promote relaxation, and attract the energy I want. I repeat my affirmations about how I want my night to go, then I get dressed and begin my work schedule from 7 PM to 1 or 2 AM.”

What keeps you motivated to log on every day?
“What motivates me to log on each day is achieving my goals, reaching stability and financial independence, since generating my own income gives me the freedom to make any decision about my life. First of all, providing my family with what they need is the most important thing—I work every day for them. My second dream is to buy a house, which I want very much right now, but I have chosen instead to invest in a business that provides me with monthly returns. I’m also bringing another project to life, investing in real estate for short-term rentals. Another goal of mine is to travel abroad to learn new languages and keep looking for more ways to invest my money, because like any woman, I love to triple my earnings.”

What qualities helped you succeed in camming?
“Success in camming depends on a variety of qualities: authenticity, confidence, charisma, good communication, creativity during shows, and above all, being consistent and disciplined in your connections. Showing your true self generates a lot of interest, especially if you interact with confidence. Knowing when to set boundaries, demanding respect in your room, being dynamic, paying attention to your fans, and knowing how to listen—these things help create a comfortable atmosphere that makes them want to stay in your room.”

How do you manage stress on and off cam?
“For me, it’s not too hard. When I get stressed on cam, the first thing I do is drink some water and listen to music I love. That alone helps me unwind. I let myself get carried away by the rhythm and dance—it makes the stress disappear. I also manifest positive energy so that my night flows harmoniously and successfully. Off cam, my go-to stress relief is going to the gym—it helps with everything.”

What has camming taught you about life?
“It’s taught me that human connection, whether virtual or in person, is built on authenticity, empathy, and respect. By being authentic, as I mentioned before, I’m able to show my true self and share real moments with my users. They see it as a virtual friendship that goes beyond simple entertainment.”

What do your fans like most about you?
“Physically, what attracts them the most is my smile—how I always greet them with it. They say a smile can change someone’s entire day. They also talk a lot about my eyes, how intense they are, and my butt—definitely one of my standout features that draws users in. When it comes to my personality, people are really drawn to my authenticity and the emotional connection I create by being genuine, transparent, friendly, and approachable. That helps build trust and a sense of belonging.”

What’s your dream getaway for fun or romance?
“My dream getaway would be traveling the world with my partner. I love to travel and have the chance to explore different countries, their cultures, food, people, and to learn a new language.”

What kind of gestures melt your heart?
“I’m melted by someone who’s thoughtful—someone who remembers the little things I mentioned at some point and brings them up again. Someone who listens actively without judging, who gets excited with me when I achieve something. Selfless gestures, a hug, really simple things.”

How many years have you been camming?
“I’ve been in the industry for 3 years.”

How many followers do you have on your main cam site?
“I have 11k followers.”

What do you like most about your favorite cam site?
“I like that it’s a dynamic site, kind of private in a way. It has tools that let you interact in different ways with your users, like using a menu, doing a gold show, spinning a wheel, or even creating your own games, like using dice.”

What features would you like to see added?
“Maybe a break feature that lets you take a 3-5 minute pause without hurting your algorithm. Additionally, having an Amazon wish list that fans can send to our studio would be really cool, haha. And something fun would be if Streamate launched an app to post stories, like Instagram-style, on your profile.”

Is there any feature you find unnecessary or rarely used?
“At the moment, I think all the tools that Streamate offers are being used.”

Would you recommend your cam site to beginners? Why or why not?
“Yes, I would recommend it because I think it’s perfect for women. It’s a safe space where you can get to know yourself and figure out what you enjoy. The site offers so many tools to make your show dynamic, and it’s also up to you to be creative in your broadcast.”

Have you won any awards or been nominated so far?
“I’ve won a few Streamate contests. Recently, I received a recognition from Streamate, along with an invite to a gala and a gift from them.”

On a scale from 1 to 10, how good is model support?
“A solid 10.”

How do you manage stress on and off cam?

Relax, and tomorrow is a new day.”

How do you deal with criticism in this line of work?
“I have had that much criticism from so many people, people who I thought were friends, even work colleagues, strangers on the internet, etc. But honestly, if they aren’t paying your bills, pay them no mind.

“Pay the haters no attention. There are literally hundreds of people out there who will pay to just have your attention. Why give somebody else who is being negative any time or attention for free?”

What kind of gestures melt your heart?
“Unexpected small gifts like flowers, or just even a touch. I crave touch a lot. It is for sure my love language.”

What’s the most romantic thing someone’s done for you?
“Am I allowed to say nothing? I am always the one doing romantic stuff for myself.”

What are you most proud of in your career?
“Having the freedom and flexibility to leave the country if I like or just the simple things like going to the corner shop.”

How do you handle jealousy or camming in relationships?
“I will openly and casually tell somebody very upfront. Their reaction tells me everything that I need to know. I cannot handle a jealous or insecure guy. Nor do I want my job to be seen as a fetish. I just want to be supported as a bare minimum.”

How do you see the cam industry evolving?
“I would like there to be more interactive stuff with fans. There are already the Lovense toys, which make camming super fun as it is a much more interactive experience.”

What’s your ideal kind of date night?
“Dinner, Romantic/Luxury hotel. And lots of sex, hahaha! Or a good quiet night in, takeaway, and again, followed by lots of sex. I am feral!”

What’s the biggest challenge in this industry for you?
“Probably technology. I’m a bit of a technophobe for my age. You can make your cam rooms look really cool. But honestly, I think it requires quite a bit of technical skills.”

How long have you been in the cam industry?
“Since 2021”
