One of the prettiest models in MM! Tall, proportionate curves, pretty face, expressive, you have it all. Too bad you dont do nudes. Your rate would have been significantly higher!

$100/hr.

I tried to look for flaws in you and I could not find any. My only hope is that you never graduated from Kaplan. Jokes apart - you are a complete print model and a photographer's delight - and you are only 22. You have already gone far, continue the good work. Love the expressions!

$250/hr

Wow. Thank you.

Lets build a port first - then we can think of making money. Also how about getting a crash course on lights and shadows?
TFCD is my best bet with just 7 pictures!

Good start for lifestyle photography. The promise is there. Please work hard and dont let anyone sue you for any breach of redoubtable promise.

TFCD for now.

Also its not a no nudity clause. A lot of people on this site shoot open legged or vagina shot nudity and I don't want that of me in the world so yes nudity is to be discussed before shoot. I am not a prostitute and my rates don't change for nudity.

Apple:
I love the way you emote in front of the camera. This one is my favorite in your port: https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/31510533. I loved your website as well. A lot of variety!

I dont know in Holland, but in US you could charge about $75 to $85/hr.

Where were you when I was turning 37? A perfect llama. You should at least write a blog on how to emote in front of the camera and probably another blog describing how to wrinkle gracefully -  don't tell my wife, but I think I am infatuated. There are a lot llamas who are beautiful but do not know how to express. There is one picture that does not look good to me though : https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/p … #26185555.
As for money - too bad you don't do nudes. $65/hr. You have a pair of legs worth a million dollar though.

Mr. Escanelle:
You are an accomplished photographer and hence my suggestions may offend you. If it does please forgive me.

Your port has the problem of aplenty, I would trim them and keep the best only as a showcase. So pictures like this : https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/27090619 need to go. Again may be I am wrong as 35 persons liked the same picture.

As for rate $75/hr

You are an exquisite beauty. And you pose with your whole body - not just the face or eyes. I never thought I would say this to anyone - I find your neck sexy!! Nature has blessed you with an hourglass figure, it would be a pleasure to work with someone like you.

$70/hr.

Great figure, nice face and a wooden expression useful in a card game. If you could work on the expressions - it could be lot better.
For now, again in my opinion - 25 rands an hour.

You have a good range of expressions - but a 0-32-24 vital statistics makes me suggest that your best bet is to do TFCD work only.

A no nudity clause and a 0-0-0 stats leads me to suggest that you continue working on TFCD basis.
