Personal information

I was born 1981 in a small country town growing up with the beauty of nature and animals surrounding and inspiring in me the desire to create art. Both in high school and college I excelled in art and art design. My work in fashion design and my accomplishments in oil and acrylics as well as jewelry creation are a result of my love for creativity. My life long desire is to  give back more than I've taken and leave behind an artistic expression of the Greatness of Gods creations.


Hello, thank you for your interest in my portfolio.

Its been created by some of the most accomplished master photographers of their style.

All are accomplished masters of their craft, and style, such as Ken Marcus,Craig Morey, Eric Kroll, Tom Millea, Jahsar, Michael Helms, Perry Gallagher,Robert Chouraqui,Simon Thorpe, Annie Leibovitz, Helmut Von Fredrick,Patrick Alt, etc. Just to name a few.Please see second page for tribute to master photographers not on this site that I have had the honor of working with who I love and respect.

I have reserved this M.M. portfolio site for my 'high artistic nude', Glamour, Pinup,Gentlemen Playboy Style.

If you wish you may inquire about the other numerous styles and portfolio's I have done.

I'm interested in all aspects of visual performance and experienced in all styles and areas of  modeling including, Commercial product, Fashion, Glamour, Retro Pin-up, (artistic Nude, PentHouse/Playboy Style),fetish, bondage, and  many other styles.


Images are published In books, such as Taschen publishing. Gentlemen's magazines, skin two, etc. videos: 2003,2004 2005, hosting and videos for Art Mann presents. Films such as Basic instinct 2, Documentaries, Music Videos and others. Erotic series in Smithsonian and the Louvre in Paris.
Images are Published in China,U.K. and Europe. Numerous Websites, events, commercials and fashion articles,Books etc.

A couple of areas that I absolutely love are acting and collaborating with the artist to achieve success of his/her intended goals.My acting skills and abilities are defined in all of my performances before still or motion cameras.
I believe I have mastered the art of  visual change. This enables me great versatility in molding the composition to the photographer/ artist vision.

Available for Traveling internationally from Beverly Hills,California to London, Paris, Germany and Asia to work with photographers that have mastered their style.   

I'm a experienced professional performer/ actor. I know this is an exchange site mainly with artistic bartering. however my career has progressed beyond 'test shoots' and TFP/cd images. I expect to be compensated for travel and lodging just as all involved with the professional production unless this is an artistic venture with international implications,or for a charitable cause.

I occasionally accept TFP with very selected photographers for very special projects. TFP as defined as limited shared portfolio content only. If you have an idea for a shoot, drop me a line with your idea. I love experimental adventures.

   I am pursuing excellence in  creative artistic adventures with master Photographers/artists.My job as a visual performer is to seduce, amuse and entertain."

The most wonderful heartfelt comment I have ever received......

Heather,

How many people say they have impact upon the world? Your credentials are as exceptional as you seem to be-- the way you write speaks volumes about the person you are.

I appreciate quality people. There is as sense of honesty, integrity, and ethic about you that is very refreshing. Many people try hard and want to do well-- but fewer push themselves as it appears you have done, to actually deliver on those qualities.

I must admit, I am enthralled with your figure-- such perfect proportion and balance I rarely see. From your head to your toe. You are fortunate to have the look of a queen... so very graceful you take men's breathe away-- and I'm sure you turn many women's heads too.

I hope one day, to work with you. Unfortunately I am stuck in Georgia for the time being and don't feel my skills are sufficient to do justice to your artform.

Heather, congratulations for your bravery, and willingness to share yourself with everyone, irregardless of what they might say. With dignity and grace. We stand in your shadow, and admire you for it. And in your own way, you have left a mark on the world that will last long after you are gone. A good mark I think.

You are a living work of art.... wonderful beyond words.

I wish you the best always. Thank you for sharing yourself so beautifully,

Sincerely,
Jim
