About me
~~~Announcement section~~
I don't always go though picture comments so if it's a hint you'd like to work with me leave a tag or better yet send a pm. Being direct works better for me than being oblique. ^_^
Not really doing a whole lot of trades ATM but I'm always happy for paid work, my rates are reasonable and negotiable~
Next miami trip November 13-15
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Quickly about my hair and eyes, I constantly get questions about their color. All the colors in the picture are real, I have never and probably will never dye my hair. I don't wear colored contact my eyes are hazel(green and brown) and occasionally appear bluish- it's just a pigmentation variation thing.
I'm a student at USF, majoring in Philosophy.
It's what I'll be doing 30 years from now ^-^
Modeling is not something one can't do forever,
it's a diversion,
an attempt to succeed while I'm young and pretty.
I'm interested in ALL kinds of work except nudes and *most* glamor- I'm just not a glamor girl. Blame genetics.
I am the most interested in high fashion/editorial, runway and commercial.
Not so secret- I love cosplay, corsets, Japanese street fashion, traditional Japanese clothing, and dark or fairy tale-like themes,
victoriana, steampunk and latex. Please ask me about shooting these things esp. if you can provide wardrobe! ^_^
My rates are affordable and negotiable-
I'm more than happy to work within you budget.
I can SEW something, if your willing to buy fabric/ect for me
I have basic sewing abilities and have made several costumes to date(celes chere FF III, and several victoriana/steampunk inspired garments).
When your getting a hold of me, please call in the afternoon and of course you can send a message through MM/email at anytime(much more reliable, silly t-mobile), and will answer within hours or less, because like most people I check my email,
- each day
- at multiple times during the day
- almost obsessively.
- No really.
Note: I am willing to TRAVEL (across Florida or to anywhere really), for any shoot but if it's TF*, and you approach me,
help with gas and/or lunch is *demanded* if I have to travel more than 45 minutes 1 way.
Please and thank you~
EVENTUALLY -Fashion/editorial-- Clearwater--- Devin Dygert (383323), Tia Gugliotta (212596), Gina (#231029)
Other shoots are in various stages,
so if we've talked about shooting,
don't worry I'm keeping those dates open, or you in mind.
I look forward to working with as many people as I am able to.
And in as many styles as I can.
^.^
Can't wait to work with you!
