No fly-by friend requests will be approved! Message, tag, etc if you want me to accept your fr. That being said, please take a moment to read my profile if you're hoping to work with me. I have travel dates and upcoming projects listed
***THIS JUST IN/TRAVEL AND EVENT NOTICES!***
For 2012 I'm focusing on publications and pinup, I'm most interested in calendar projects particularly.
My travel schedule is tentative as I add new listings frequently, so please PM me for destination inquiries
States you will often find me in: PA, OH, MD, and VA
-Hi there, danke sehr for checking out my port. Enjoy the eye candy ^_~
-A bit of background first... I'm a published model and have been full-time on and off for almost half a decade. My main genre of work is pinup, and I focus mainly on bookings of that nature. I can say with certainty that modeling is an integral part of who I am. I did my first commercial before I was even in my teens and my first shoot around the age of 15, modeling vintage clothing for a small online shop. It is a full-time passion of mine, and I feel my originality is obvious in my work
-Of German, English and Dutch descent
-I love shooting in new cities. I am willing to travel a considerable distance if expenses are paid in advance... I cannot stress enough that I absolutely do not travel without compensation for at least cost of getting me there and back. That is non-negotiable, so please do not expect me to waive anything more than my half-day rate if you want to import me.
***I especially appreciate photogs that can host, but I expect to know detailed information about where and when I will be boarding. This again I can't stress enough, if you offer me a place to stay, GIVE ME DETAILS***
-I'm into 1920s-40s fashion
-I love Dieselpunk, art deco and anything from the WWII era
*What it's like to work with me...
1/18/11
-I only collaborate with individuals that have a definitive art vision. I like to focus more on working with other artists to create timeless images, rather than people who just want to "shock" others with their photos. That isn't important to me
-As of right now, my main interests are my Veronica Lake tribute project and underwater modeling. I have a preference for indoor pools.
-Depending on given situations I do have rates, but they are negotiable and flexible. Promise
-Cell number is available upon request. I am not one of those models that refuses to speak via phone, so if you prefer to discuss shooting arrangements that way, not a problem. But please keep in mind that it is most convenient for me to take calls in the evening. And I do have unlimited text
-I'm extremely flexible, with years worth of gymnastics, Jazz dance experience and my love for ice skating. I can master practically any pose
-I'm my own makeup artist and wardrobe stylist. More examples of my styling ability can be found here:
http://www.modelmayhem.com/2319901
-My natural hair color is dark Blond. I'm not the best with styling it, however, it's naturally wavy/ curly, very thick, and takes forever to dry. So if a shoot calls for a specific style (i.e finger waves, pin-curls) if you spring for it, I will rock 'em.
-As you can see from my port I have an IMPECCABLE sense of style, but I do accept clothing and accessories in trade for a shoot as well. And yes, I DO make my own clothes on occasion. I'm a seamstress in my spare time.
-I scar and bruise easily, and since I'm so fair skinned they can't be hidden that well with makeup. These are the only physical traits I am o.k. with being edited. What you see is what you get
-All stats are kept current and updated. I'm good friends with my tape measure and scales
-My eyes are a shade of green that appear grey. My cup size is B/C
-My hair is a few inches past my shoulders. I also have eyebrow length bangs that I can pull back when needed.
- Shoe size is listed as an 8 but I can often comfortably wear 7.5s as well depending on the brand
-While I jump at the chance to see the world, I do live in a spacious, downtown landmark apartment. My place is available for a possible shoot location, because I'm awesome like that.
-I favor studio work, but I'm not limited to the indoors. I have been known to brave below freezing temperatures in mini dresses and open-toed heels to get "that" shot
-I do have a fiance that may accompany me to shoots occasionally, but if you aren't cool with an escort I can arrive solo. Not an issue. I can (and do) travel by myself
-I love to contribute to concepts and ideas for shoots. Ever since I was a little girl I've been artistic, and modeling is my medium.
*What I will and will NOT do for shoots...
-Never have and never will flake. Even if I'm under the weather or get stuck in traffic, I can guarantee that I will be there. If there is a last minute scheduling error or mishap, I will offer to book for a different time or day.
-Aside from paid work, TF Latex and/or publish is my preferred compensation, (unless it's one of my theme projects). Furthermore, if you are lucky enough to do a TF project with me, I request that I help select which pictures get edited and etc. That's the trade off for not paying me

.
-Proud to be tattoo free, will not wear fake ones for a shoot either
-I literally do not tan, I have a porcelain complexion. So I will not damage my skin for any project, nor even do spray tans. My alabaster skin is partially what gets me booked. I'm very proud of my fairness. Also, I won't dye my hair any other color or wear wigs. I'm very consistent with my look.
-Call me vanilla, but I do not pose with other models.
-If wardrobe is provided, it WILL fit. Staying slim is in my blood. I'm short waisted and all leg (as you can see from my photos). It's no optical illusion, I really do have the most amazing legs.
-I don't claim to know anything about Photoshop/editing photos in general. Nor do I tamper with my photos, so no worries about me attempting to do a hack job re-edit on the photos you give me.
... Lastly, I do not automatically turn down last minute work but I do prefer a more planned project. If you have any questions about rates and availability, please feel free to ask!
P.S. there are a few con "artists" and charlatans on here that I do not recommend, if interested in a head's up send me a PM.
