CURRENTLY BOOKING NOVEMBER SHOOTS!!! QUICKLY FILLING UP!!! MESSAGE ME PRIVATELY IF INTERESTED!!!
I love modeling, but don't consider myself a 'model.' It's another creative outlet for me, which I enjoy. I've done a little bit of it all in every genre and love pulling off unique ideas. I'm more like a bowl of fruit.
I work on a sliding scale within your budget and for catalog shoots, we can always negotiate a deal with clothes.
If you are interested in shooting with me TFCD/P, I have three requirements, please read them BEFORE contacting me.
Please note, my availablity for TFCD/P are on Saturdays and Sundays only.:
One, I do not do explicit nudes nor porn. Nothing wrong with that, but it isn't me. A photographer should respect that and understand to shoot a model in a way that makes them feel uncomfortable will make for a crappy photo. Do not expect to change my mind when I show up to work with you. I will have no problem of thinking of you as unprofessional and will walk out without blinking an eye.
Two, unless I've previously shot with you, or have worked with someone involved in your shoot, I bring a friend. When I bring a friend, I bring someone who’s another model, a make-up artist, a hair stylist, and a wardrobe stylist. Someone who has experience on a shoot and can help me out greatly, ESPECIALLY, if you are not providing those options for me. I consider BOTH of our times as extremely valuable, so understand, I will not bring someone who will disrupt, get too involved, or act up. If you cannot respect that, then please do NOT contact me.
Three, when you contact me in regards to shooting with you, please be organized. As in, please give me your contact information, idea of shoot, tent. times/dates, what I need to bring, what you will supply, etc. I also need to know what type of shoot I am doing. Is this indoor/outdoor? Am I being paid? Will I get prints/cd? It's not rude to tell me the details, because my response to you if you don't is going to be these questions anyways.
I work on a sliding scale. I'm flexible with your budget. Also, if you expect me to come prepared, on-time and ready to work, I do expect the same from you. I don't flake on shoots, to the point that I've done them with fevers/chills and puking. (Can you tell which ones in my portfolio were those?) So, though it's not happened *knocking on wood*, I'm the type of person who will have to be on the brink of death to cancel the shoot. I'm a professional, so I'm hoping you will be, too. I really dislike flakey people who schedule a shoot, then call me a hour after the shoot was supposed to start to say they woke up late.
A bit more about myself:
Please note, though not reflected I have tattoos on both of my upper left and right arms which when complete I will have full sleeves. These are works in progress and if you need an updated view of how far along they are before shooting with me, please message me. I am a budding horror movie scream queen. I've actually begun getting regular work going in and screaming, giggling, singing, and assorted sound effects/noises for horror movie scores and trailers. Chances are, if you've been in a movie theatre or turned on your TV in the last year, you've heard me quite a few times.
I'm driven by my passion for music and design as well. I sing for a Los Angeles band, Satiate,
www.satiated.net (I've also sang in Anna Thema and played keyboards in Triggerpimp.) I also have an indie-signed band, TCR,

You can buy both cds, Satiate - "The Anatomy of Heart Break" and TCR - "The Chrome Recordings," on Amazon.com, cdbaby.com, and iTunes.
