***** I am in the process of updating everything! Please see my pictures and information at http://collee5.wix.com/colleen-oreilly- .. But it is still a work in progress. Thanks for ounderstanding! *****



I am an amateur model, with a semi-pro website on Southern Charms. I model for the fun of it, to see how many different things I can do with my body, costumes, light, and good photography. The point (if there is one) is to create as much variety as I can with a single subject (me).

I am an experienced, professional-minded model. While modeling is a hobby for me, I respect photographers' time and do my best to show up on time and prepared.

I love thinking up new things to do, but I cannot do it alone! My best pictures have come from photographers who were also friends, who **collaborated** with me to make great images.

Right now, I am getting desperate for variety. I am looking for photographers who have new and interesting ideas, sets, props, etc. I am also looking for modeling partners (male and female) about my own age and build, hair dressers and MUA's.

If you are any of these people, please contact me with your ideas. We can talk and email and hopefully we can get some new and exciting images. Let's create something together!


A note about TFP:

Like a certain country song says, "Semi-pro always means semi-paid." This means I cannot afford to pay photographers and I work strictly TFP. Since I figure my time is just as valuable as your time, I consider it a fair trade.

When we make images together, I am going to use them for one of 2 things: Either I am going to use them to promote myself, or I am going to put them on my website. Up til now, I have put almost every image I made on my Southern Charms site, but that might change.

I have invented some new uses for smaller sets of truly stunning images. So if you contact me and I like your work, but you don't feel you can release huge sets to me for some reason, I may still be able to work with you.

Otherwise, the great majority of the images I create through TFP agreements are destined for my Southern Charms site. Being on Southern Charms is kind of like living in a condo: You can do whatever you like with your own space, so long as you follow the rules. While SC is widely known as an amateur porn site, we Charms have complete creative control over our own pages. The only requirements are that we stay within the law and that we get nude at some point. That being said, please understand that I am not a porn model and I do not do porn on my site. I do Playboy-level nudes and implied nudes. While I do full frontal nudity, I do not do spreads or pinks. If you have any doubt about what this means, picture some of the great nudes you have seen in fine art. If you can't see it in an art museum,. you won't see it on my site."

If you are interested in working with me, I have written quite a bit on the very boring subject of what I need to get out of a photo session. You can see it all on my blog here: http://colleenoreilly.blogspot.com/2011/08/for-tfp-photographers-primer.html

The short version is, I need bunches of pictures, that are usable (not perfect) without heavy editing, and I need to be able to publish most of these images for my limited online audience. I will work with you to make sure we both get enough images to make our meeting worthwhile.

Thanks for reading this. If you have made it all the way to the bottom, please drop me a note with all your ideas.
