About me

Salut!

Bios are so tough for me to put together.
I hate using the identifier "I", as in - I think I would be ... etc... To me, "I" indicates something lacking. A lack of humility, or a lack of awareness, or a lack of creativity. Or all of the above.

Harsh? I don't know. wink


In the standard, my work is in freelance writing on human issues and sometimes as a film crew-chick, or producer when bills are piling up. As for what you want to know regarding talent, I'm a well tempered, Italian/German girl, raised in theatre, dance, and travel. I am a product of years and years of dance, music, and a decade of modeling and theatre but I still work for a realistic paycheck, just like everyone else.

Please understand my time is precious, and so is yours. I'll only work w/ professional photographers, designers and stylists with exemplary portfolios and good attitudes. It's all about having an ambitious network plus, I have zero patience or time for fakes and/or egos. In creative equality, there's no room for mediocrity.

If names like Irving Penn, Richard Avendon, Louise Dahl-Wolfe, Gordon Parks, Fernand/Lisa Fonssagrives, Guy Bourdin, Victor Skrebneski, Dorian Leigh, and Dovima mean nothing to you, then please read up or just don't bother.

My book could use some sprucing so please write me but please, no nudes, glam, amateur, fetish or anything of that nature unless I contact you please.

So without further adieu, thank you very much for stopping by and spending time with me and my selective modelmayhem collection.

XoXo

Hey there, Vesper!

Ames, you look like Vesper in James Bond film. You should be a Bond Girl. You have this sophisticated aura going on. Maybe it's your beautiful big eyes and authorative nose of French ladies.

Infinite X's and O's,
C.S.

Thanks for the comment. That guy you referred to in back of the train, he's kind of the point of the whole thing, the pulsating surround, gawkers are a big part of the show. In this case, caught him a little too sharp, more tantalizing when a bit more blurred but still contextually recognizable. That's part of the essence of modeled-street, all its uncontrollables, and conversely also part of its joy. You quietly insert the mod, take what your given, and make things up as you go from there. Mod/tog always are communicating, signaling, in sync. Lighting is usually the horror, although in this shot worked out pretty well, just a flash to help (in this case the smallish Olympus FL-36), otherwise hand-held and on-the-fly and whatever the mod/tog can make of it. Monica did a great throw here, don't you think?

Thank you. If Ronnie was still with me I'm sure she'd agree, she was always a bit of a diva.
