**PORTFOLIO/STATS**
All of my stats are current and updated monthly. I am in the process of expanding my portfolio. The images therein, are from 2009 to current. I do not keep any photos any older than 3 years for reference. What you see is what you get. I am a firm believer in keeping my look updated and fresh. If you would like to see past work of mine, please feel free to contact me via this venue.
BIO/PERSONALITY:
Freelance Fashion/Editorial model, as well as Alternative/Fetish(CLEAN) model available for hire in the San Francisco/Los Angeles vicinity. I am experienced in Runway, Studio and Location settings.
I have been told that I have a 'powerful' look, and that I am very versatile...which is true! I can play down dominance, or I can rev it up to 11.
I am very laid back and friendly. I have been described as "disarming", due to my good natured disposition and I generally make for pleasant company. I value and respect intelligence, as well as true character, and integrity. I despise cowards, thieves, and liars. I can tell a fake a mile away- so please just be yourself!
I know how, and when to play to my audience, and am very professional, without being stuck up. Being an ex-corporate escapee, I have since decided to follow my bliss and just let the road rise up to meet my steps as it may.
I reside in San Francisco, but I am open to travel if expenses are paid, including passport/visa fees.

*SPECIAL TALENTS/PROVISIONS*
I am very flexible (hyper-mobile joints).
I can dance and am not shy.
I can sing Vibrato. (Alto/Contralto)
I can do my own makeup and hair.
I design clothing, jewelry and fetish accessories.
*****SPECIAL MEASURES FOR LOCATION SHOOTS*****
I am EXTREMELY photo-sensitive otherwise known as Photophobic. This means, I am VERY prone to light sensitivity. Natural, unfiltered sunlight WILL make my eyes water.
I am in the process of gathering funds for some prosthetic contacts.
In the meantime, this is something I cannot help, as I am naturally this way.
Studio settings do not bother me, but natural light is definitely my Achilles heel. Please keep this in mind when doing location shoots, on clear, un-overcast days.
I can not stress this enough. Please do not say I did not warn you.
*****PLEASE NOTE*****
If you contact me expressing interest in a shoot, or if I answered your casting call, please DO NOT waste my time by tentatively setting something up, and then just dropping contact. I understand 'life happens', however, it is common courtesy to relay any sort of cancellations etc in a timely manner, so that I may rearrange MY schedule. This is a waste of both of our time in the end. It will also put you on my sh*t list.
When I ask for a date, time and location, I expect a follow up.
Rates:
My rate is flexible and commensurates with market rate/lower than.
If I am to do my own hair, wardrobe, makeup, this rate also covers the cost of such materials, and the time spent by me prior to the shoot, to prepare.
If I am working with you on a fashion show for instance, and hair/mua/wardrobe IS provided, then I can lower this rate to something flush with that provision in mind.
Please contact me for day rates (6-8 hours), or any other lengthy/ongoing project rates.
I will consider Tearsheets in lieu of payment, depending on the venue of submission, as well as the overall circulation of such publication.
Cross Promotions:
I am a firm believer in cross promotions. I will make a conscious effort to market your work, just as much as you will market mine.
