A Russian born and native speaker, I'm currently residing in Helena MT, though I frequently travel to Bozeman and out of state.
I have had several years in front of the lens, and am now exploring the vast world behind the camera. For the past 5 years I have been posing for cosplay - anime/video games/Sci-fi costumes mostly made by me, so the transition from "character" modeling to "normality" seems rather fluid. I believe emotions and the face play as much a role in beautiful modeling photography as the rest of the body's posing, extending the cohesion and vibrancy.
I'm open to a few TFP/CD shoots (no nudes or otherwise implied though), but due to time constraints with college and personal projects, I'm forced to pick and choose where and with whom I work with, paid projects of course having priority. If you're interested in shooting with me, please provide specific ideas on location, concepts, themes, and compensation; simply messaging me and saying "Hey I wanna shoot!" will tell me nothing, so I probably won't reply.
I'm interested in innovative collaborative works, bringing something new and exciting to the table, and can bring a unique and intriguing wardrobe to the set. I'm able to adapt to a variety of situations and locations, and will go to the extreme to get "that one shot", including high weather-tolerance.
If it doesn't hurt, you're doing it wrong.
I also can provide lots of colorful and eye-pleasing wigs, props, costumes, and mostly do my own hair and makeup.

I am 5'8", slightly curvy, have changing eye color between blue-aqua-gray, a lightly freckled face, and no piercings or tattoos.
Love your look. Sent you a FR, and would love to shoot with you sometime.

Welcome to MM. Best of luck.
I'm currently working on a digital mosaic project for which I well require a large number of diverse images. If you think you might be interested in letting me use some of your images check out my port.
There is a link to my project page on my profile if you'd like to check it out - very much a work in progress.
