Due to some health/pain issues and scheduling concerns I am taking a semi-hiatus. The only shooting I will be doing for the forseeable future is at DEAC events or at workshops. You can find out about upcoming workshops with me on my
Facebook page.
Due to some allergy issues with my old hair color, my hair is now a red black.
About Me
I look like my photos and will provide snapshots if you want. What you see in my port is pretty much what I shoot, but I am open to discussing other things.
I am professional and serious about what I do, but I am also friendly and nice and pretty darn fun to shoot with. I have lots experience with 3 years of modeling, and I can work well with all experience levels.
I am quite happy to pose fully nude, partly nude, or clothed. I do have some wardrobe including vintage gloves, wedding gowns, stockings and garters, cute lingerie sets, dresses, etc. Ask if you want to know more.
I can pose, to get an idea of my main style of posing you can watch this video: http://youtu.be/PGMeApeGvJY
I have no problem getting dirty, posing with animals, being outdoors, etc (just no trespassing or public nudity, please).
I can do basic make-up and can put my hair up in a braid, ponytail, bun, or simple updo. I welcome working with MUA and hair stylists. My nails are always clean, neat, and natural (or polished with a sheer neutral color). I generally have pubic hair of some sort, but if this is a concern please ask. Yes, I am willing to grow/shave/trim for appropriate compensation.
Availability & Booking
I am available to shoot within the Detroit area including Dearborn, Ferndale, and other close-by suburbs. May be able to travel a bit further out for paid work or with travel compensation.
I charge $50 an hour (1 hr minimum) for art nudes. If you have something else in mind contact me with your budget and we can discuss rates.
I do shoot trade. Here are the things I am interested in shooting TF:
- artistic beauty make-up (see list) - MUA required
- alternative or dark, but elegant themes (see list) - MUA required
- artistic headshots (see list) - MUA preferred
- shoots with a dreamy, vintage, or elegant feel (see list) - MUA preferred
Note that I am interested in photographers who can achieve the feel of the images I have listed in terms of lighting and tone. Of course I am also looking for images that can equal or exceed the quality of what is already in my portfolio ^_^
I do not drive so I will be driven to and dropped off at shoots.
If you are having me sign a release, it would save a bit of time if you could send me a copy to review in advance.
If you would like references beyond those in my port, let me know. I have done over many, many shoots and have never been approached with a complaint ^_^
