I'm an actress and model (have been with a reputable talent agency for several years), easy to work with, and very comfortable in front of the camera. I'm interested in collaborating with experienced photographers and stylists on commercial lifestyle, fashion, editorial and art projects.
I will shoot for trade if I think your style will benefit my portfolio, but I have to be picky as my spare time is limited. No nudity, willing to travel if expenses are paid.

Regarding TF
For unpaid work, I prefer to shoot on weekends or in the evenings.
I'm pretty flexible about compensation, but I'd like at least 2-3 images from a session. Model releases are fine, as long as they allow for my own promotional use (portfolio and web) of my selects and any additional shots you might want to edit. If you're making prints, my book is 9x12, but print-ready hi-res files are great.
**I'm part of a musical production right now so I won't have much time to shoot until mid-Dec.**

Good Golly, Miss Molly, what a wonderful time I had with you this afternoon. There's not a single 'bad' shot, so trying to pick ONE image from each set-up is making me nuts! Thank you, thank you!!!

Lydia, I was planning to write a gushy tag, telling you how I feel about our shoot last Sunday, but I think you already know how I feel about our shoot last Sunday. So I'll just say, publicly, you are very, VERY good. And I am very, VERY grateful to have had a chance, finally, to work with you. Thank you so much. -- Bill
