THANK YOU FOR ALL THE TAGS, COMMENTS & KIND WORDS. I TRAVEL A LOT SO DON'T ALWAYS HAVE TIME TO REPLY TO EVERYONE, BUT I DO READ AND APPRECIATE EVERY SINGLE ONE. I WORK VERY HARD, SO IT'S NICE TO HAVE MY WORK APPRECIATED BY OTHERS. IT MAKES THE HARD WORK WORTH IT.... SO THANK YOU!



PLEASE DO AS I DID AND ADOPT AN ANIMAL THAT NEEDS A HOME.... JASPER IN MY LAUNDRY BASKET, DOING HIS BEST SUPERMODEL POSE. AND HE ISN'T A DIVA. TAKEN & EDITED BY ME.





                     


[b]I'm a Brit (with part french/part German blood), now residing in the United States. I moved to Arizona, after meeting my boyfriend here (listed as my first friend), and receiving my work visa as a performance artist. Despite this move, I return to Europe a few times each year where my family reside, so I'm not disappearing from Europe completely.

                     
                     


I'm a full time professional dancer, choreographer and internationally published art nude model. I only accept paid assignments. My expenses are too high that it's not possible for me to travel around the world in exchange for images. This does not mean that I am more passionate about money than art. I have a passion for what I do, and hopefully it shows in my work. I strive to get quality images from every shoot.


                     

       
I specialize in dance, art nude and dance figure modeling, although I also work in beauty and fashion. The art nude images in my portfolio show my natural look with no make-up. While I have a strong natural bohemian/classical look, I look very different with styling, and have the ability to look different for each photographer when styled.


                     

I'm an artist, and at my best moving fluidly and being myself. I love connecting with a photographer and creating unique images. I'm at my worst being treated as a prop in someone else's vision.

I'm interested in working with photographers of all abilities. Please do not feel intimidated by my work. I don't believe in 'levels,' I believe in creating great imagery, so if you are passionate about photography, then we'll have a great shoot. My aim is always to bring out a photographer's skills.


                     


I prefer to be original with my work, and do not like to imitate work. All of the images in my portfolio are dated as they were taken.

                     
                     


I only work in the styles you see in my portfolio. If you are unsure, please email me for clarification. It is not possible for me to list the endless fetishes and styles I will not do, so please don't assume that if it's not listed here, then I will do it...because I won't. For example, fetish, bondage, explicit, or adult work of any sort and I do not wish for my work to be associated with any adult websites or companies.

                                         
                     

PLEASE NOTE: my natural hair is and always has been long dark and wavy. All other styles in my portfolio were created with wigs. I am 100% natural, with no enhancements or scars of any sort and my chest is naturally firm from my dance training. No implants!!

                     
                     


****I'm also available as a creative assistant/director/model coach. I direct new models and help with poses, styling, and composition ideas, to help you get the best out of our shoot. I've worked with a variety of photographers, and have a large amount of experience as a model myself ****


                     


Many awards, certificates and training from Lamda drama school, and various dance schools, for theatre and tv. Many years of experience as a performer and teacher. Please visit my website to see more of my work, along with references and credits...www.katyt.com.

Steve Azzara (MM: 15842): "So glad you came to shoot. You are one of the nicest and most professional people I have worked with in a long time! Come back soon!"


Salhuana Studios (MM: 119708): "...To quote the photographer, Paul Markow: 'Beautiful women are a dime a dozen..you can find them on any street corner..but a woman that can perform in front of the lens - that is a rare find.' Katy is a rare find - she can perform in front of the lens..."


JBaeza: "Working with Katy is a great pleasure. She is as intelligent as she is beautiful, with a great personality and a fine work ethic. With her keen eye for aesthetics and form, a shoot with her is an artistic collaboration. I also appreciate her willingness to endure adverse conditions outdoors, sacrificing her comfort to create the image. She is not only a model, but an artist as well. Truly a delight to work with."


Glenn Mars (MM: 771748): "It was a pleasure to meet and work with you. You are truly an amazing person... a beautiful and talented artist with a creative mind, a vivacious sprit in addition to possessing a generous and kind hearted soul …you are what all models should aspire to be"


Gorman Cook: "I have worked twice with Katy T and found her to be an exceptional model and a delightful person. She is an exceptionally hard working model, has superb instincts for posing including playing to light sources and camera. She requires little direction and most of the time I just let her move while I shoot. I highly recommend Katy T for anyone wanting to work with a first class art model".


Vince La Valle: "Katy_T is one of the most Dynamic and Talented Models I have ever worked with! If you have not taken the time to schedule a shoot with Katy, you are missing out on "Pure Perfection". She is Graceful, Precise and stays fully engaged with the shoot or theme. I have worked with well over 500 different models since 1977, and Katy is by far in my Top 10 that I rate as truly Professional. She truly sets the Bar at defining Excellence".


Brad Miller: "I had the opportunity to work with Katy T here in Florida. I did a sunset and sunrise shoot and was very impressed by the professional way she worked and her modeling skills are like no one I have ever worked with. I would highly recommend her without hesitation to any photographer. She offers so much as an artist and model. I would work with her again if she gets down to the area".


Dan Owens: "Over the past year, I have had the opportunity to work with Katy T twice and I can say without hesitation that she is one of the most wonderful and creative models I've met. In my opinion, she is one of the best fine art figure models I've seen. Her amazing talent, her dance background and her experience shooting with great photographers in Europe and the US make her truly one of the best. I have learnt immensely from her. She is inspiring and my portfolio has benefited greatly from working with her. She is a true professional, an absolute delight and I consider myself very lucky to have worked with her".


Josef Vital (377713): "Katy_T, You rock. Such a natural beauty who makes shooting fun. Thank you".


Phillip Ritchie (43582): "You meet many people over time and they just fade away, then you meet Katy just a beautiful person, very sensual woman who can laugh and bring a smile that will last even when she has left. Katy you are very special in who you are and what you do, you truly created some amazing art when we worked together .. thank you Katy till next time ,,phillip


SRS Photo (117341): "Dearest Katie, I wanted to thank you for a remarkable photo session, and tell you how much I appreciated the input I asked for. Your promptness, preparedness and professionalism are second to none! The creativity and graceful movements you brought to the shoot are all I could hope for. I look forward to another opportunity to work together... the sooner the better!"


Christopher Ryan (233216) "Katy is the embodiment of the fine art model and artist. Beauty, form, grace and strength are her obvious attributes, but she is also creative, self driven, and charming. Katy is a mentor for aspiring models and has set the highest of standards of what a model and artist should strive towards.Thank you for coming to Montana, your more than welcomed to stay again and again".


MIKE SMITH: “Katy_T - a force of nature... You are amazing, you are the bond that ties the artistic world together. You fill the voids between structures and add your form & beauty to the magic that is photography. I had the pleasure, honor, thrill and good fortune to shoot with Katy. I have not been the same since working with her. I feel that my own Artistic Vision will never be the same. From the beginning until the end I felt like I was in the presence of a 'Force of Nature,' Intelligent, Driven. An artistic partner - alive with ideas - not posed. She searched every  moment of her movements for the perfect position. Between  whatever objects she placed herself or any surface that she attached herself to - she became the force tying it all together in a composition of beauty - simple, elegant. ~~ Katy T - Thank You! A chance of a lifetime.





SIMON POLE: �Katy is a lovely person to work with and be in the company of, serious, fun and creative all in one package, what more can one ask! Any photographer that is even remotely interested in working with an artistic nude model, working with Katy is an experience not to be missed. She is prepared to go that extra mile in, at times, far from perfect conditions, to produce something special, she also has a keen eye and will come up with something you may not have noticed or thought of. Katy is very articulate and can pose in just about any shape form or position imaginable. Katy_T - dancer, choreographer, model! Whatever label you apply to her, make no mistake... she is an artist of the highest order".


STUDIO-B (MM: 420600): "Katy is a first class professional model. She moves fluidly from one excellent pose to the next and she can hold a pose when needed. She is pleasant to have around (she stayed in our home for a couple of days), and a delight to work with. She is one of the best. I look forward to working with her again and I recommend her highly.


JIM HOYLE: "...Thank you for coming to Greensboro to work with me! You are an amazing model – I have never worked with a model of your ability and it made all of the difference in the world".
