I have been modeling for a number of professional photographers within California since 2001.
I am not currently looking for modeling assignments full time as I am focusing on my own photography studio. I am considering doing maybe a few assignments during 2012 as I would like some new pics of myself but my focus nowdays will remain behind the camera rather than in front of it.

I am a photographer turned model so that I could broaden my experience to become a better photographer. Apparently through all my hard work and effort I became rather great model too. Now it is time for me to return to my true passion which since I was eight has always been more behind the lens rather than in front of it. I am leaving my modeling portfolio here for those who wish to review and appreciate my past efforts.
If you have any modeling projects you want to collaborate with me on that are especially creative or if you are in need of an excellent photographer and/ or photography assistant too. I am tired of doing nudes, please don't ask this of me anymore. I am ok with some semi-topless as I know people like to photograph my back tattoo as well and I am totally ok with this but I want styling not just another nude shot.
If you have an interesting project idea please don't hesitate to approach me with an email. ALSO, I am very into Victorian and Steampunk right now so I would gladly accept these assignments. It would be excellent if you are working with a designer.
I am seeking paid work of course but I will consider TF* if I feel that your work has the quality level and artistic sense I would want to spend time with you to collaborate, however travel must always be compensated.
Thank you,
Shiva Sharifi
