About me
From a recent fashion editorial session for dado boutique, Godiva's Vintage Clothing Boutique & Joette's on Monroe with RainbowKandicaine1 Patrick John MUA/Hair styling by Maria Makeup Artistry. Special thanks to my Session Stylist & Creative Collaborator: Queen Laffine!

http://modelmayhm-7.vo.llnwd.net/d1/photos/091121/13/4b085ce7e0b01_m.jpg      http://modelmayhm-7.vo.llnwd.net/d1/photos/091121/07/4b0805dc36229_m.jpg

The session above was conceived as a loose storyline involving a young woman's preoccupation with a once or (would-be) future lover. While she is in a dream-like state she is transported back into what might be an early 19th Century setting. She is clearly a 21st Century woman but they are dressed in what appears to be retro mid-20th Century style. She is anxious & conflicted. The series is supposed to have a kind of creepy feel. If you are interested in seeing a series of more stylized black-and-white images based on this theme, here's a link to a what I call Echoes of Consequence - A Waking Dream



From a fashion editorial session for Discover Rochester Magazine; Editor-in-chief/Creative Director, Ann Hasick Kabel. Makeup Maria Makeup Artistry MM#: 1039699. Accessories from Joette's on Monroe. Clothes from: Suzanne's Distinctive Fashions, l'avant garbe, and Men-Tality:

Recent/Upcoming sessions:

Will very shortly be casting and scheduling a series of studio sessions. May also do one or more location sessions in the region. If you are interested in participating, please send me a note.

================================================

Stuff you should know about me:

>>  I live and work in Rochester, New York. I generally limit my MM contacts to those who also live and work in the western & central NYS areas. Map

>>  I am primarily interested in: fashion editorial and related model portfolio sessions. If you have a serious interest in this sort of work, I would be interested in talking about ideas.

>>  I don't charge models. If there are expenses associated with our session I will let you know what your share will be in advance.  If you are not comfortable with the costs, you will have the option to bow out gracefully and our professional relationship will not suffer.

>>  I'd like to work with men and women of all types, backgrounds, personalities & ages (so long as you are over 18 - except in very limited circumstances).

>>  I have a lot of ideas but I really love creative conversations/collaborations. I will highly value your creative input.

>>  I'm married & have two children (boys) aged 13 & 10. There's a slim chance *sigh* my older son might assist us during our session.

>>  I'm not comfortable shooting nudes.

>>  A copy of my model release is available by request. In short, I retain copyright and everyone else gets a pretty liberal usage agreement.

>>  Model/Stylist references are also available by request.

So, if you are a model, MUA/stylist, retailer or designer interested in fashion related sessions and you live in or near Rochester, New York (Map), please let me know.

Thanks! It was alot of fun! I like your work and I read your, "what you should know about me" and I loved all your concepts and ideas. I would love to work with you some time if you are interested. I am looking to get into this industry so I need to build a portfolio.
A little about me: Jason and Joe said they loved working with me and I brought alot to the shoot. And I also believe I am a very creative person, I live off creativity, every day in my life. I am an artist and a cosmetologist.
So if you are interested let me know and we can work somethng out! :)
Thanks, Tamara

I wish I could have shot there! That would have been fantastic. I did move to Colorado but I'm back now for family matters. I will be in Rochester for some time though, a few months at least. I will probably be leaving again after christmas, so you're not mistaken. =)

the trip was ok just that a lot of photographers flaked out last minute i guess because it was on a sunday. Oh well they lost out on an opportunity to work with two great models and I will not accept tf from any of them. I feel that they had their chance and wasting my time doesn't cut it when I could be making money. Hopefully your models don't flake when you do go to nyc. Keep up the great work.

Currently, I will only be in Rochester for the week to visit my boyfriend and for a job interview I have. If the job interviews goes well, I will then be moving to Rochester asap (hopefully within a few weeks).
