More of my modeling portfolio can either be seen on my myspace or under my favorites on deviantART.
Note:: I will not pay you to shoot my pictures, so do not contact me for a shoot if you want me to pay you. I can shoot on own pictures just as good as you for no cost. I will only do nudes if I know you very well, we have shot several times together and have met several times together. Otherwise, I don't shoot nudes for free. Usually my nudes are only implied nudes or topless. I like my work to be tasteful, not trashy.
I have been doing photography for a little over six years now and modeling for a little over five. For a while I was my own photographer and own model. Then photographers such as Dennis Wright stumbled upon my self work and demanded that I shoot. I took a break after modeling a few times at 15 to wait until I turned 18 to actually be able to do more with my expressions. I have modeled for various photographers throughout Alabama, and I have also modeled for the photography class at University of Alabama for about ten photographers at once. I adore photography and modeling. I want to do both in life.
I am not conceited because I do and have done self portrait photography. It is just a way to put my emotions out. I have noticed that over the years self portrait photography is becoming more and more popular. When I actually model I love showing feeling in the work. I enjoy being creative when modeling and helping with ideas as well.
I am 20 as of June 16th. Therefore, I am young, not extremely experienced, and I have a lot more to learn. If I have a scheduled appointment, I will not bail out. Ask Dennis Wright. I had a hurt back, and still went to the shoot. If I do have an emergency and need to cancel the shoot, I will let you know in advance. But I know that scheduling a photo shoot is time from your hands and mine. Rescheduling is an even more pain.
At the moment I am currently a college kid which leaves me extremely busy, but on the weekends I usually try to fit in photoshoots.
I hope to one day succeed in my dreams.
If interested in working, contact me. I might not get back here asap because I do not check this site daily, but I will get to it as soon as I can.
Little details about me:
*I am extremely pale and do not tan.
*My eyes are my greatest feature and many photographers like to bring them out or show them off in the photographs.
*My skin breaks out from stress in certain places like my elbows and knees.
*I have scars from breaking out and on my arms and upper thighs from my teenage angst crazy years.
*I take US Yoshukai Karate and do Japanese Semi-knockout fighting. Sometimes I have bruises. But usually my shins are constantly bruised. I also bruise easily period.
*I have a tattoo on the back of my neck that is the Japanese Kanji for friend or friendship though it is easily covered up if my hair is down. I have an anatomical heart tattoo on my upper back. I have a star on my left hip, and a shooting star on my right hip. And another star on my love handle. I have 14 piercings in all. I have my belly button pierced twice - once on the top and once on the bottom. My septum pierced (however, it can be flipped up if not wanted in a photo). My tongue pierced. And my left ear pierced 6 times - four from bottom up and two on the cartilage, right ear pierced 4 times - three from the bottom up and tragus, with my first holes at 0 gauges.
I would love to work with anyone willing to give me a try. I am very shy at first but after a few minutes my personality pops out. I will laugh at almost anything. I am also a photographer so I have an artistic style and I try to help with ideas when modeling if wanted. Just contact me.
