Smart, adaptable, punctual, reliable, innovative, easy going, and down to earth. Willing to travel on a limited basis.
I travel between Los Angeles and Seattle often,
My hair is now straight
For the most part, modeling is something I do because I enjoy it and it creates artistic networks with several people I would not have connected with otherwise.
I understand that sometimes beauty is uncomfortable, and we often make sacrifices, take risks, and endure things that aren't part of our normal experience -all for art. Sometimes that is what makes it art. I don't complain about little stuff like that.
I have a wide variety of modeling interests which include:
*nude -artistic, fine art, beauty, bodyscape, body parts, body paint, action, fitness, lingerie, erotic, fetish, glam, glamour, edgy, adult themed, so on so forth- I'm pretty open minded and not very shy,even though I've played ENF
*non-nude -fashion, casual, commercial, swimwear, fitness, hair, feet and legs
*yoga photography
*performance art or unusual fun creative projects
*music festival interview host / promotional spokesperson
*Dance photography -specifically bellydance - Just please understand it's good family entertainment refrain from asking me to do topless harem style shoots. (nudity and sexuality in a different context is great)I cannot betray my belly sisters that way. I don't have anything against sensual, racy or otherwise adult-entertainment, artwork or performance, lmao, however, there is a common misconception that gets generalized about the craft. Some of the girls wouldn't be cool with it. Thanks for being culturally understanding.
*film projects
**I am open to working with other models -both male and female

ALL IMAGES in my port have dates associated with them.
Several Images are completely UNEDITED, I try to state so in the comment line; I have permission to use them as such. I think it's important for photgraphers to see the real skin-tone and whatnot. I saw this link and it's something to consider

If you'd like to check my
references, or look at the images other photographers have captured with me, below in my lists is an extended guide. (networking is good, it's not all ego). In fact I welcome reference exchange.
Anyway, the business stuff... I don't wanna sound curt, but I'll just be direct.
My goal is not to build up a portfoilo or pay the rent, it's to have fun and be part of hot projects. But....
Although I don't do this to pay the bills, most of the projects that I participate in are paid assignments. The only time I do TFP type stuff is if you are a photog with a creative idea that strikes me. I'm pretty open minded, so don't let that keep you from contacting me. Perhaps it'll gel.
Really, It's not that I'm above TFP or that sort of thing... no, I respect it; It's cool;
It's just that I'm a full time college student... with a double major, high gpa, actively into the arts and other creative projects, TRYING TO GET INTO GRAD SCHOOL, and all that jazz, on top of dealing with ongoing pulmonary issues. There has to be a way to justify my time away from the books.
BODY MOD INFO: I do have two VERY SMALL tattoos of dragonflies on my left shoulder blade, easy to hide and my nose is pierced for which I usually wear a flat stud. ---Fetish stuff---My nipples are pierced but I hardly ever wear the jewelry and the diameter is nose ring width, so like the next size down from the standard nipple hardware.
Oh a limitation: No tobacco promotion. seriously.
Special note for all day shoots: I'm a vegetarian; I'm cool with some dairy and eggs though, so it is really easy to find a bite to eat even if we're shooting all day.

if carrots and celery don't seem like a meal to you, it is because it is not a meal.

but are fine for medium/long shoots. You might be surprised at the variety in a meatless diet. So, if we have to take an intermission to grab something to eat, it really won't be too difficult. Plus - I'm not looking to change your diet, so no worries.
Although I have a Myspace, I'm not at all active on it, it's more to direct photogs here. Same deal with Friend Requests... I think of them as bookmarks for people that would like to work together, so....
Anyway, I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks for taking the time to read/skim all of this.
Oh and age is a number
