About Me
I'm 25% Czech, 25% Mohawk Native American, 50% German.
I'm originally from Syracuse, NY, moved to Florida for a few years, and ended up back in NY and am now going to be moving to Brookhaven, PA. I am currently brunette (shade will vary depending on when we shoot from light to dark brown). I can give VERY diverse looks from sweet girl-next door to edgy gothic and everywhere in between. I've been doing this for 6 years now and am bring a lot of experience to the table.



I do have 2 tattoos, the one on the left hip/leg and small one on my right shoulder. I'm okay with people photoshopping them out (Yes it looks big, but photoshop's content aware is pretty damn good and I've done it and others have done it quite easily.) I also will try to soon get makeup to cover it up. My skin tones changes a lot so that creates a problem with makeup. I *WISH* I didn't get them. But it was before I had any idea I'd be modeling.  But please, fine art photographers, don't shut me out because of it. I'm totally okay working around it or finding a way to make it work. I am also willing to edit it out of pics for you if it's that big of a deal. It sucks having my tattoos shut me out of my favorite style of art
I also have my belly pierced but can remove that on demand. Just ask

Curious about what you can get from me? Here are some basic options when shooting:
http://sprng.me/hbbfo

Booking
Please contact me via MM or email ONLY. I do NOT book via phone. If that's your requirement then I'm not the model for you. This is a full-time business for me and there is no way I'd remember everything talked about if I talked to everyone on the phone each day. I need a solid record of what's been said for reference or if any issues arise. MM only much preferred. I do have my notifications set so that I get FULL messages to my email. So if there is an issue with the site, don't worry, I have the info

Local Shoots
I do reduce rates for local shoots.
I consider anywhere within 2 hours of home (Brookhaven, PA) to be "local"
So yes, surrounding PA, NJ, DE, MD
Anything 2-3.5 hours away I *will* do same day and on "local availability" days if the shoot is a minimum $300 pay. Standard rates apply for those areas.
This is more like north NJ, NYC, central PA, DC, VA or south/west MD

Rates
Make me an offer, tell me your budget, or ..just ask! I'm very fair. Lower than many traveling models. IF you think you "can't afford me" just start of telling me what you can afford. You may be surprised

**I will trade an extra half hour of shoot time for a paid hotel/place to crash per night [sorry, if you want more, you can of course book more. I only get $30-50 hotels, so to me it's not equivalent to do more time per night]
***Hours are your time needing me. NOT just actual shoot time. If you want to drive around to locations, have MUA/Hair, or whatever that is your choice, but it is important that you understand that's part of the time I'm hired for.

I am a retoucher as well! Please keep me in mind for your retouching needs www.modelmayhem.com/slkretouching

Payment
*Cash* - Accepted same day of shoot only
*Credit Cards* - I now have a credit card swiper. Accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover & American Express.

*PayPal* - I will accept PayPal payments if sent to me 24 hours before the shoot so I can make sure it clears.
*Checks* - I will accept business and personal checks if I have worked with you before
*TF* - See below about trade work. Very very limited.

Cancellation Policy
For ALL shoots. Local or not. And this is for ANY reason needing to cancel (Weather, sick,  accident, can't afford it, work schedule change...*anything*)
Exception: local shoots I'm okay to move around if weather issue and shooting outside
*Cancellations 7 days or more out- No fee
*Cancellations 3-7 days- 50% of our agreed shoot
*Cancellations within 48 hours - 100% of our agreed shoot
If you book a shoot with me, you are agreeing to this policy. This is my full-time job. I need the money from the shoots in order to be able to finish that trip. I have had a LARGE number of photographers flake on me in the past on trips that have almost left me stranded. Out of respect for me, I just ask that you abide by that.

Trade Work
I will have very limited time for TF* but I am open to it. (Honestly, 99% of the time I will likely say no just because of the time I have I need for income). I understand the value and I like to have fun with shoots! I love unique fine art work and print stuff such as Wet Plate.  I also love an exciting team of stylists and creating something beautiful and unique.
I sometimes trade for: (or partial trade for)
-Airfare/Car Rentals/Hotel & Accommodations
-High End beauty shoots - I love working with a styling team!
-Clothing/Beauty items- **Latex**, Corsets, Shoes, Makeup..other fun stuff!
-Magazine/Print work
-Misc. Publication
-Clothing companies/designers
-Lighting Equipment
-Nikon Lenses (HIGH end)
-I will partial trade for Wishlist items!

Restricitons
-NO cold shoots. I can tough out a little but please, no below 60 temps (Below 75 is cold to me), ice cold water or *snow*. I have fairly poor circulation and don't do well in the cold.
-NO implied sex acts or sex props or "pink" shots or sexual expressions ("orgasmic" looks)
-NO products on my body [i.e. chocolate syrup, loads of oil, honey (except oils for shine purposes)]
-NO nude male models (fashion okay)
-NO posing with male photographers (Unless it's just a simple casual shot. I'm not here to satisfy your desires for touching females and getting shots to brag to your friends about.)
-NO video work (unless simple behind the scenes where I don't have to pay attention to it) Apparently I have to explain this because people always try to press this issue and ask me to consider it. The answer is no. I get VERY nervous in front of one. It comes down to a public speaking aspect. I was that kid in high school that could not present my project at the front of the class without shaking like crazy. I WISH I could act and talk on video. I really do.  But I can't and don't feel a need to do any video work so don't intend on changing that. It has nothing to do with me feeling like all video is porn. I know that's not the case. I just physically have trouble and really don't like it. so DON'T ask, please.
-NO fetish work (except basic, tasteful bondage styling -Not DiD style-, foot fetish, foot focused shots, pantyhose shots, etc. STILLS ONLY)
