ATTENTION ATTENTION: Please read this before you contact me or view my port. I was never aiming to be a model & I started (more or less) so I could have images to get work as a $promo model$ & to gain experience for my career as a creative director, fashion show director & fashion designer. I have already gained quite enough from modeling so I will turn down ALL TF* modeling unless the opportunity will
A.Guarantee me an image I can use for work as a promo model or
B.Guarantee me an image I can use for my fashion design portfolio (styling, concept etc.). I want to be a fashion designer, NOT a model so I must use all my time to work towards this goal so I hope you all will respect this decision & continue to work with me on this level. Good luck to all the talented & motivated inventors, creators & hard workers out there.

Things to know about me as a model:
***My hair is currently short & dark brown w. a bit of red tones in the front.
***I like direction. I don't want to just look pretty & strike a pose in front of your camera. I want to know what kind of look, mood or theme we're going for whether the idea is mine or yours.
***I'm a mix of 25% Persian, 25% Armenian & the rest is a mix of English, Scottish, French, German, Dutch, Welsh & Irish. Thats only 2 generations or so back so nobody looks like me!
***I now require that we must shoot to music. Music can inspire specific attitudes, characters & moods in me & I want to create the best atmosphere possible in order to get the shot we're looking for.
***I am always willing to change my hair for a shoot & I make a great hair model (something I've done since 2000).
***If I haven't worked with you or if I'm doing nudes I will almost always bring an escort. I'll let you know if I bring one & he (my boyfriend most likely) will not get in the way, be protective, get jealous or partake in any annoying boyfriend behavior. If anything he's more than willing to assist us!
***I'm obsessed w. anti-aging & I've even rid of my natural neck wrinkles muahahahha.
I was the organizer & coordinator for the shoot below to promote Shisha Lounge. Photographer: Tim Prendergast, model: Denise Abigail & PARI'. All Styling: PARI'
I directed, coordinated & casted the Dumb Fresh Ready To Wear Show at the Centerstage in Baltimore, March 21st 09'. These are the sort of projects I want to do more often so if you're a designer, experienced runway model, dresser, live photographer, hair or makeup artist please message me so I can keep you on my database for future shows. We're probably going to take the show on tour so we're looking for more people to work with. We are going to building a portfolio for the show & I have a ton more photos if you're interested in the project.
Want someone to organize your next show? I'm your girl; I've been walking the runway since I was 3 & I've been a professional organizer for over 10 years now so multitasking is the name of my game.

BEWARE: I hate bad mouthing artists but...
I do not recommend working with the following photographers simply because our shoots went great but they failed to give me my images in any form & completely disappeared off the face of the earth & would appreciate any info on them too b.c I would adore using those images!
