Ahoy!
My name is Tara Lightfoot.
I am a professional actress/model. I've been very lucky to survive on making art!
I am creative, punctual, and easy-to-work-with!
WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT:
One word that has echoed over the years about my work is "chameleon." I have TEN YEARS of acting experience including: theater, film, voice overs, commercial hosting, and character acting. My training in the performing arts has enhanced my facial expressions, creativity, and ability to speak through the eyes. I've been very lucky to study under many talented individuals, and I bring that quality to every shoot I do. Please keep me in mind for any video work, as well! ...Uh...well not "ANY" video work. You know...the clothed kind.
IMPORTANT:
I don't do adult or fetish work. It's just not my thing, so please don't ask me to work with you on these projects. Thanks!
Also...(it's a shame this must be said)...
TRAVELING:
Given notice, I will travel for the right job, and will give 110% to make sure we have a great shoot! Since I drive a gas-guzzler, I prefer to take jobs where I receive at least gas and food buyouts.
FEES:
As of Sept. 2008, I will be cutting down on my modeling because, well...I don't want to end up hating it. I've been extremely busy with print and runway work, and it's time for a bit of a break. So due to my schedule, TFP/TFCD isn't always possible. But it never hurts to ask anyway! At the very least, I ask for travel costs and food buyout to be covered. If that is the case, I would also appreciate a copy of the master CD (aka, don't just send me five pictures after shooting all day...that doesn't cut it).
Otherwise, I do have hourly rates depending on the type of work. But I'm definitely willing to negotiate certain types of rates...pay by number of looks or do hourly/day rates. Whatever is easiest for everyone. Overall, it's best just to contact me and we'll talk it out!
Rock and roll, kids.

NOTE TO PHOTOGRAPHERS:
Please keep in mind, I am on, like, eight hundred other sites like MM. Ok, maybe that's an exaggeration. Unfortunately, I'm only allowed twenty measly photos on this site. So, for obvious reasons, I only can post certain pictures of each category (commercial, fashion, etc, with tears and client work taking priority). My point is....if we shoot together, and I don't post the pics on MM, please don't fret. It doesn't mean I didn't like the work. But after five years of professional modeling, I have WAY too many pics to post and only twenty slots. I mostly post things on my myspace and sometimes other sites like MM.
Ah. That being said....let's take some photos!
