********Current Update:  As warned, I recently endured my second wisdom tooth extraction (no surgeries after this, yay!).  To those photographers with whom I have been courting work:  please allow me a little bit of time for recovery before rocking your lens.  Thank you. ~S**************

I suppose I will now be joining that popular legion of people who believe that if someone photographs you half naked you are cool.............: P

     I am an artist's model.  I am interested in work that makes you dream.  I have a soft spot for the gothic genera and scene which I've been admiring for years.  I adore gorgeous, romantic, decadent gothic photography.  I love vulnerable photography which includes extreme expressions of passion, such as blood.  ....I love photography that makes one quesiton what is beautiful or sexy. 
   
    I love photography which makes one think, question onesself, question others, and question reality!    I am open for all types of work, but I most enjoy alternative generas. 
   
    I will not do nude, but this does not mean that it will not be sexy!  I am open to semi-nude. 
   
    I am interested in most types, but I would most enjoy the more alternative generas.  I am insterested in pin up (*with a modern twist), fantasy, gothic, erotic, fetish, scene, gore...anything creative. 

    [[[[[[[[[[[*By modern twist, I mean the following:  I love the lurid audacity of pinup photography, as well as the perfectly neat and concise style in which it is presented:  HOWEVER, in some atom of my being I deeply DESDAIN the image of a 40's/50's house wife; as well as most types of male/female relationship depicted within it.  I feel at their best, that women are goddesses as opposed to the timid 50 cent whores that this style would portray..  I feel that any decision to portray onesself in this manner should come from within her own choice, as well as manifest itsself in a more assertive manner; at least for my personal taste.  I hate du-wop, I hate pin-curls, and I hate acting like a cutsie little charicature of betty boop or Marlyin.  What I do love is some garter straps, and sexy see-through lingerie.  THAT, we can do ;-)]]]]]]]]

   
    I am looking for as much experience as possible while starting out, so as to build a portfolio.  If interested, I will do commercial.
   
    I am a belly dancer and would be willing to incorperate this into shoots if desired.
   
    I will be bringing a chaperone to all shoots.
    I have a strong work ethic and a very polite/amicable disposition so don't be afraid to ask.  I don't bite.  (Unless it's artistically done! : P)
   
    As for outside of this, I am also a singer and artist of all types, as well as a college student.  I also dabble in photography as well.

    Body mods:  Belly button ring, Left brow-gold barbel...a fraction in from the far corner of eye.
   
    Hair: I have lovely, dyed hair.  It is a lush dark burgundy-brown...(different from the color depicted in my photos.)  Levels, and brightness of the burgundy are subject to change.

    Brows:  I have brow ADD.  Brows are subject to varying shapes/thickness.  *Please Note:  The brows in my photos were a MESS!  (And I knew this at the time).  I have, since, found a new browist who has, artfully, put things in order...
   
    Ideas:  I have many, just inquire if we get together.  I would love to do a mermaid shoot, as well as an elfen shoot.  Also, I am somewhat of a feminist.  It would be great to do luridly sexy shoots with feminist themes, (that don't exploit women), to show that it is okay to be a feminist and be sexy too!  Vagina love
