About me
I run an online Gothic clothing marketplace called VelvetGarden.com, as well as a steampunk jewelry business called VelvetMechanism.com

I've been modeling for several years. My husband is an established photographer (MM 125904), as are many of our friends.

I'm particularly interested in strange, dark, off-beat, creative photography. I prefer to work with photographers who have their own unique style. I've done quite a bit of fashion work, but I'm also interested in darker, fine art photography.

I don't have any tattoos or piercings (except regular ear piercings). I've generally done my own styling, hair and make-up for photo shoots, but I love working with outside stylists when available.

I love collaborating on TFP/CD projects!

I'm not interested in any nude or erotic work at this time.

If you are interested in working with me please contact me at alison(dot)velvetgarden(at)gmail(dot)com. Thanks!

I'm on the cover of THREE books! A best-selling thriller by Chelsea Cain, the 2nd book by John Ajvide Lindqvist, best-selling Swedish horror writer, and author of 'Let the Right One In', and a French vampire novel (first in a series).
