ATTENTION!!!: I am moving to Oregon sometime very soon. At the moment, I am shooting for Portland, sometime during Summer/Fall of 2010... So if you live there.. and you would like to work with me, send me a message and we can talk.
________________________________________________________________
First off.. I have to say that I rarely, if ever, will pay a photographer. As a photographer myself, i've been on both sides of things. And unless traveling needs to be done.. I don't expect to pay, or be paid, as the case may be.
HOWEVER... If I want to work with you bad enough, and your work is just THAT fucking amazing.. I WILL make an exception...
________________________________________________________________
I'm a photographer, (which you can see here:
http://modelmayhem.com/member.php?id=488575 ) but I just recently decided to start modeling as well.
I'd also like to state that I, in no way, fit into any mold. If you're looking for a skinny girl who you can count each and every rib on... If you're looking for a dumb blonde.. or if you're looking for the typical, cut straight from the same mold as everyone else, model... look elsewhere because you will NOT find that here... I stick by the thought that real women have curves. I am SO tired of seeing girls out there showing off thier poor excuses for "bodies" when they weigh less than 120 lbs. That's rediculous. and unless you're shorter than 5', you should be more than 120 lbs. Our bodies were built for curves, and girls should learn to embrace them, rather than trying so hard to get rid of them.
I pride myself on my punctuality, and I expect nothing less from everyone else. If you're going to be late, give me a call and let me know. I hate waiting on anyone, and i'm rediculously impatient. Make me wait longer than 5 minutes without a phone call, you lose a client.
I am a very professional person, when I need to be. However, most of the time, I'm very goofy, and will make a joke out of pretty much anything. The way I see it, what's the point if you don't have fun with it? If you act like you constantly have a stick up your ass, please, don't contact me. Life is far too short to be serious 100% of the time.
As for my style.. I guess I tend to get put into the "goth" category, but I try to stay away from labels as much as possible... I'd like to think that I look like no one, and no one looks like me, but I know that can't be completely true. Regardless, I'm Beth Amphetamine.. No one else.. I'm just me.
The kinds of shoots I would like to do would be just generally alternative.. (For those who want more specifics.. My idea of alternative is Goth, Victorian, Burlesque, etc..) I'm mostly interested in doing things TF*.. and will rarely ever pay someone to take pictures of me. As far as I see it, the ideas I have in my head are mine and noone elses, and if YOU wont take them, i'll find someone else who will.. and won't charge me an arm and a leg to do so.. because let's face it.. this is the modeling industry.. and it's one of those industries where EVERYONE is replaceable..
I also almost always do my OWN photo editing... (Yeah... every picture of mine has been edited..some of you seem to forget about post-production... and some of you REALLY need it..) and will probably ask you to not post any picture of me that I have not edited myself.. This might sound a bit absurd to some of you, but I've been on the other side of the lense too.. and if you, as the photographer, get to chose which pictures to send me, then i, as the model, have the right to tell you what you can and cannot show.. Don't like that? Tough shit.
I really want to do more themed shoots.. I have several in mind, but don't want to get too into detail untill I find more people interested.. (and if anyone IS interested, let me know.. )
I also generally do my own makeup and hair, depending on what look I'm going for. Otherwise, my sister does it for me. But I am willing to work with make-up artists and hair stylists if needed..
Now that I have that out of the way... As far as how I look goes.. I'm a curvy lady.. By no means am I a small girl, but I carry myself VERY well... I have RED hair... though it changes a lot... It used to be black.. then it was blue.. and purple.. and red.. and black again.. and now it's red again.. I have very unique eyes.. One of them is light blueish green, with a big green spot, and the other one is a darker blue, with grey spots... I don't mean to sound stuck up, but I haven't ever seen anybody with eyes like mine..
I like piercings.. I have 11 of them.. mostly in my face (and my nipples). and I have two tattoo's (so far), two little hearts on my right shoulder blade, and a four leaf clover on the left side of my neck... and I have plans on having more tattoos done very soon...
You can contact me through here, through My Space, or through my email address.. (drinkxyoupretty@aim.com) I usually check all 3 daily, but if it takes me a bit to respond, I'm sorry.. I promise, I'll get to it..
Aside from all of that, I am NOT on here to make lifelong friends. (or enemies for that matter) I am on here because modeling is something i've always been interested in, and I like being on both sides of the camera.
Some people say i'm very demanding.... and they're mostly right... So if you want to work with me, you'd better learn to deal with that.

I will ALWAYS bring an escort to my shoots. NO exceptions..
I am so tired of people saying that it's a "new model thing" to bring an escort. I disagree. It's called SAFETY.. I trust very few people.. and there are a lot of psychos out there.. so if you can't handle the escort deal.. don't even bother getting a hold of me. Thanks.
________________________________________________________________
Usually, if I like your work, i'm the one to get ahold of YOU first.. (though this does not imply that I don't like getting messages from YOU as well..) and if you turn my idea down, do NOT be suprised when you see the exact same thing pop up in my portfolio a few weeks later. If YOU won't take my idea, I'll find someone who will.. You are NOT the only photographer out there, just like I am not the only model.
