NOTE
I have cut my hair into an inverted bob (chin lenght) with blunt bangs.
It is still versatile enough to style in different ways. But I no longer have the long locks.
Who I am and what I do
I’m a reliable, creative, fun and outgoing
'Full Figured' model originally from Amsterdam, The Netherlands but I have been living in Montreal since February 2008.
Though my style and passion lends itself to Retro Pin Up (1920's upto 1960's era's), Artistic/Avant Garde, Dark and Alternative work I'm very happy to consider and explore different styles too. (Suitable for my height and size) I always love a challenge!!
My stats are always up to date and I currently measure: 42DDD (or 38H)-33-42. I'm a dress size 14.
This is the look I get from most people when they find out my height and measurements:
So if you are looking for a 'fashion' or 'commercial' model you are most likely looking at the wrong profile. Unless ofcourse you are openminded and like to think outside the box every once in a while!
My background is mixed Caucasian (Dutch), Thai and Japanese.
(I speak Dutch, English and Thai fluently)
Je ne maitrise pas encore le Francais. mais j'apprends!
My aim's, hope's and dreams
My aim is to create memorable and striking images that are timeless, outrageous, elegant or thought provoking. I enjoy photo's that tell a story.
Although I admire and love nude photography I do not undertake these kind of shoots myself. Please respect this.
My inspiration comes from many sources such as Film Noir and 1920's and 1950's Hollywood Glamour, Vaudeville, Kitsch, Low Brow Art, Victoriana, Horror, BD/SM and Rock and Roll.
Some of my favourite artists and photographers include Helmut Newton, Erwin Olaf, Joel Peter Witkin, Clarence John Laughlin, Bob Carlos Clarke, David LaChapelle, George Hurrell, Bernard of Hollywood, Alberto Vargas, Guy Bourdin, Gil Elvgren and many more..
Work Ethic
I believe in working 'together' and in good communications prior to the shoot. I'm very passionate about modeling and always give 100%.
I value professionalism very highly and have a 'diva free' attitude and a very good (sometimes a little crass) sense of humour.
I will show up to the shoot with my hair and make up profesionally done, a positive attitude and most important of all
on time and often accompanied with cookies.(nom nom nom)
I undertake only a very limited amount of TFP/CD photoshoots and believe this should be a collaboration of mutual benefit.
If you feel like you can add something striking and new to my portfolio and I to yours please don't hesitate to drop me a line.
My rates are very reasonable and include professional hair and make up, good times and a wicked wardrobe:)
I'm always eager to collaborate with designers and am often happy to work for clothing/latex/corsets/footwear/lingerie for interesting clothing companies and designers.
Additional Skills
I am a qualified and experienced
Make Up Artist (MM profile #189015).
All the hair and make up in my photo's is done by myself unless otherwise stated.
Although I am capable and very skilled in doing my own hair and make up I do not mind working with other hair/make up artists.
I also have experience as a performer and promotor and am a 'size positive' activist and model mentor.
Body Modifications
I currently have 6 tattoos.
-A small blue snowflake on my left wrist
-A lipstick on my right wrist
-Bats and crescent moon on my upper left arm
-A 3/4 'Day of the Dead' themed sleeve on my right upper arm. (starting from my elbow upto my shoulder) Work in progress.
-A 'Frankenheart' with bats and bolts on my chest.
-A portrait of Vincent Price on my left lower leg. Vincent Price is badass.
My tattoos have been photoshopped out of some of my images. If you wish to see pictures of my ink please don't hesitate to ask.
I have no piercings, breastimplants etc..
