FYI: I don't bite so feel free to contact me with any question or comment you may have    Also a note to add:  I have a very LARGE & extensive wardrobe variety to choose from, click on the link below my name and city above to view it! Not many models out there have the wardrobe & accessories/props that I have!  I'm adding lots more to the album when I have time!    I have many styles of shoes as well and am currently working on adding that along with my lingerie, tops, pants, hats, jewelry, etc. to the album.  I'm hoping that this album will help assist in giving a better idea of my commitment to a shoot as well to giving 110% to each shoot!  I will try and have the wardrobe you select on hand for our shoot but in the event of me not being able to locate it or get back home to retrieve it, at least I will have a better idea of what you are looking for!!  If you do hire me or we agree on a TF shoot, you will definitely get your money/time well spent!!    Any questions as to what I possess currently please let me know!  I do have a short list of what I do have as far as accessories listed below. Again, check my link above below my name & city to view my partial wardrobe/props in my photo album.****



***I currently only have M-F to schedule shoots unless I'm traveling for work in your area!! I will list on my profile or in a casting call  ** 

**UPDATE 1:: I will be in the Cleveland/Akron/Sandusky OH Nov 16-Dec 18. I have limited time to shoot.  If you are interested in working with me, please shoot me a email!   

**UPDATE 2:: There is a possibility that I will be traveling to the Detroit Michigan area soon.  Let me know if you have interest in working with me.

**UPDATE 4::I will be traveling to Chicago & to the New York area soon.  No dates are listed yet but I will post on here when I have dates set.


Wow! That's quite a bit to mention! Now on to about me! lol



Hello!!! I go by Pearl, that's a nickname. I also go by Connie which is my real name. I have other nicknames also and if you're nice I'll tell ya what they are! ha ha ha  First off, I'm FUN!!! Please don't judge a book by it's cover.  I'm surely not stuck up but I can be if need be! lol It is a total MUST to have FUN on shoots that I'm a part of!  I don't consider a shoot work!  When or if it ever does, I don't ever plan on modeling again or I will be taking a break!!

Anyway, I'm on here looking to update my portfolio, make new contacts (aka: network), as well as am interested in just about any paid shoots and/or some TF projects/concepts submitted to me.  I currently work as a promotional model mainly; but am always wanting to get into more print, commercial and modeling work, and some acting work also so the need for an updated portfolio is crucial. My experience does include some print work along with trade shows, conventions, in-store demos, NASCAR, NHRA, INDY, fairs, festivals, concerts, swap meets, some commercials, and auto shows.

I can be contacted through my email here or at blackcatrun97@yahoo.com since model mayhem is down alot or if you have a limited account.  I will travel up to an hour from my location, maybe a little further depending on the photographer and what type of shoot it is.  I may ask for a little gas money to cover the cost if I am coming a distance out of my way to shoot with you. I don't think that'd be asking for much considering the quality of shoot you'd be getting from me! Check out my wardrobe link below my name and location!!

Many times throughout the year,  I do travel all over, so its good to meet other photographers in Virginia, West Virginia, other parts of Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Illinois, Indiana, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida, California, Las Vegas area, and Georgia.  Maybe if I'm in your neck of the woods, we can set up a shoot!!   

My interests include classic pinup, retro/vintage style pics, and any type of pictures done with automobiles, tractors, motorcycles, etc.  (I have a more complete list below)


**I will possibly consider implied & some artistic shots but I'd like to see some examples of your work first before I decide to work with you in that area.  I don't do the point and shoot style deal! Anybody with a camera can take nude shots even ME!! ha ha.  Sorry!**  Only an artist can work their magic with angling, lighting, editing, etc!**    Also I usually DO NOT do TF nude photos unless we've worked together and it's agreed upon! In addition, I am a bit picky as to the style in which I portray in the artistic nude style photos because usually it bites me in the rear later on down the line if it is something that interferes with normal work. Please inquire if interested in this specific style.  It never hurts to ask...  Don't assume..



Any questions, please contact me. 

NOTE: Please don't be offended if I am not able to answer you back immediately as far as a shoot goes regarding dates that I'm available.  I work for myself; so for me, my schedule doesn't fill up until closer to the day and I usually don't schedule that far in advance but I will make some exceptions

**pinup/vintage/retro/cheesecake style concepts**

**Just a note to add, I'm very open to suggestions & improvements and I'm fun!! I do pride myself on shooting with photographers & others in the field. I try to give every shoot something unique that the others don't have along with tailoring to the needs of both myself & the photographer in order to achieve a desired look.    If you have any question as to my character and/or reliability, feel free to contact any of the photographers on my list that I've shot with.

IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT SCHEDULING A SHOOT!!!::



Interested in shooting with me?? Read below....


***If you take the time to email me and show interest in a shoot and schedule one with me and you do not provide a phone number to contact you by when requested by myself, you will be denied a chance to shoot with me!!  No exceptions! If I give you a number to reach me at, you should be able to do the same! It's only fair!  In addition, if we schedule a shoot day and you flake out by pulling a no call/no show, you will be on my blacklist!  My time is as important as yours, especially if I go out of my way to make time for you and drive out of my way!!  Don't think that you'll have another chance to schedule a shoot after that because you won't!! Now this could change of course if you could provide sufficient proof of an emergency as to why no contact was ever made.  I most certainly would contact you if I set something up with you for a certain day!!  Sorry, to sound a little cruel but I have to say it to warn ya ahead of time!! Again, it's only fair warning! Don't schedule something you can't do!  I don't think I'm asking for too much....please let me know if I am.  I'm always open for suggestions, comments, observations, and concerns you may have!
