I'm not very experienced in being a model since I've always been a little afraid of having my picture taken, but I want to change that now.
I hope this can be a way for me to get to work with people whom share the same darque, avantgarde aesthetics as myself and I'm sure we will be able to make some wonderful shoots together if I like your ideas and vice verca.

I have a wide range of vintage and antique clothing, as well as fairytale dresses. I even make my own clothing and masks and will be able to make something especially for the shoot. I also make jewelry and I'm able to make deco for the shoot as well.

I also have lots of strange and weird antique findings and accessories, which would also be possible to use in a photoshoot.

I love vintage/sepia photographs but I'm also willing to make color photos, it all depends on the idea behind.
I'm very openminded, but sellective, and I have some limitations to what I will participate in and I will not make nude photos unless I find your idea to be of an extraordinary kind, not to be missed!

I'm very friendly and kind, but a little shy, but I'm sure if I feel at ease and comfortable in your company, it will be no problem.

I'm willing to travel far, for the right photographer and the right artwork.

Please feel free to write me with any questions or requests.

Kind regards

About my apperance:
I don't have any tattoos, piercings or other bodymodifications. So I'm sort of "natural-looking" in a dark kind of way, if that makes sense.
My hair is very long, down to under my bottom. It is straight and dyed black.





~*On a more personal note:*~

I've always had the fortunate ability to escape into my own worlds of hidden fairy tales and I'm blessed with a visionary mind, having the ability to create my own worlds.
I'm fascinated and captivated by otherworldly creatures and find the strange and bizarre to be very close at heart and an overwhelming inspiration in my works.

I would love to be part of artworks with a deeper and more meaningful spirit than the regular fashion/glamour shoots. It is not for me. I'm not here to display myself, but to be part of something which combines the dark, fairytale, strange aesthetics with passion, vision, mysticism and magic.

What I'm interested in is primarily;
Fairytale themed shoots
Otherworldly settings
Pre-Raphalite- atmospheres (Waterhouse-ish)
Strange/Bizarre
Costume-shoots
Gothic aesthetics
Medieval/Renaissance
Victorian
Rococo
Dreamy and etheral visions
Dark/avantgarde

I've only just started to explore this wonderful world of photography, but some artists and photographers works I would like to mention, are these blessed beings:
Richard Greenthorn
Nina Pak
Jan Saudek
Joel Peter Witkin
Brad Miller
Chris Anthony
Zdzislaw Beksinski
