I love taking pictures!
There is so much on my plate right now so forgive my speed in relpying to emails and buddy requests.
I do not approve most buddy requests. Nothing personal. I just have an over-saturated myspace, facebook, and twitter so I use this Model Mayhem page as my own personal resource, not a "let's see how many friends and comments I can get" page. Please feel free to add me on myspace:

If you'd like to work with me please send me a message as well as a request. Please, please, please be specific in what you have in mind. "Let's collab" could mean anything...
1. If you want ME to Book YOU as a professional- Tell me what look you can give me that would knock my port up a notch. Please include your rates for that idea.
2. If you want to to trade TFP/TFCD with me- Let's use the opportunnity to be creative, take risks and do something that will make people say DAMN! Let's make the most of our time. Right now I'm only accepting TFP/TFCD from select photogs in LA/Vegas/Atl (and a few other major cities) that can offer a new and interesting perspective and cool sets or locations...
My port needs:
-sci-fi/fantasy themed art/picts
-retro style pin-up
-edgy editorial
3. If you have a pay/member's site- I will NOT pay you. I will NOT do TFP/TFCD with you. YOU will pay ME. Trust me. I know you will make much more off my image than what you spent to book me.
Email me for my rates at: vanessaveasley@gmail.com
4. If you'd like to shoot me to submit for a publication or a client- Please be serious and specific. If you have them, please include links to your work in said publication. I will not shoot for publications that don't at least pay a standard editorial rate.
On "exposure" as payment:
I do this full-time and exposure does not keep my lights on just like exposure does not pay for your costly lighting and camera equiptment. There is nothing worse than being BROKE and FAMOUS! and that's where all that "exposure" will lead us. Lets keep these clients on thier toes and not let them take advantage of us. PHOTOGRAPHERS AND MODELS OF THE WORLD UNITE! Hahaha:)
What you can expect from me:
*I show up!*
*I am on time*
*I am professional*
*I maintain my shape, hair, skin and nails*
*I take direction well in English and Spanish*
*I don't whine*
*I don't bring my mom, boyfriend, dog, or manager to set*
*I will listen to YOUR CRAPPY ASS music all day long! LOL*
I would also love to meet creative MUA's stylists and costume designers in LA! I am often asked to refer the aforementioned pros for jobs I'm booked for and my database is weak. $$Let's network$$ Yaaaaay!

*************ATTENTION NEW MODELS*************
My favorite photographer Nick Saglimbeni of Slickforce Studio now offers an intesive workshop called ModelKamp. My most notable magazine spreads have been produced by Nick & Slickforce(SHOW BL, SHOWcase, Lowrider Girls) I wish I'd had the opportunity to shoot with a team of the caliber when I was starting out.
