I am an internationally-exhibited fine-art photographer based in south UK near London. I am also a published author. My first book Self-Portrait Photography:
http://tinyurl.com/missaniela-selfportrait-uk was published worldwide in 2011, with the second 'Creative Portrait Photography' to follow in spring 2012.
I run the Fashion Shoot Experience (
www.fashionshootexperience.com) which is a high-scale workshop giving both amateur and pro photographers an opportunity to shoot styled models in stunning locations. At these events I have been producing my own work too, specifically Surreal Fashion, examples of which you can see in my pictures.
I use Model Mayhem primarily to recruit team members for the Fashion Shoot Experience. I am looking for:
- Models, who are reliable and committed, down to earth, game & professional. I like models who care and get truly 'involved' with what they are taking part in.
- Reliable, communicable & efficient MUAs and hair stylists who can understand the needs of a high-pressured workshop environment, and give creative input where needed.
- I am also regularly looking for costume designers/fashion students who can contribute their designs in return for exposure and high-res pictures. Previous designers I have showcased include Arisa Fukumoto, Ara Jo, Joanne Fleming, Lenka Padysakova, Wolfgang Jarnach, Kate Williams, Edwin Csh, Valkyrie Corsets, Marina Brenere, Sarmite Ostanevica, Louise O'Mahoney, Mimic and Queen of the Wild.
I also do other shoots (personal and commissions) and post casting calls for those too, but also please add me if you're generally interested in working with me.

I most often only work with models who can work for me on the terms of a full standard model release, which means a one-off fee or agreed exchange for the specific work done releasing all rights to the images (i.e. not a commission/royalty basis - unless that is something we decide to agree on). I therefore mostly wish to work with models direct, it is fine to be agency-signed as long as those ties do not affect our shoot.
