I've been very fortunate to spend the last 5 years of my life traveling around the world and working as a model, designer, and stylist. I've worked (and played) in Dubai, France, the Netherlands and the eastern coast of the US. Finally, it seems, I've sprouted roots here on the west coast of the US and I'm excited for the opportunity to meet new creatives...My previous network spanned the east coast from NY to FL. I would love to work towards establishing a similar repertoire here.

As you can see, a substantial portion of my portfolio is dedicated to nude photography. I believe in full artistic commitment and have very few personal hangups. That being said, I am not interested in photography for the purposes of adult entertainment, specifically. I prefer a fine art approach to nudity and the human form.

My non-nude photos are typically shot with clothing or sets that I've designed. I am a leather worker, seamstress, and jewelry designer, in addition to my modeling. I typically come to a shoot prepared with a full wardrobe ensemble, props, sometimes furniture...and myself in full hair and makeup and ready to shoot. Did I mention that I have a cosmetology license? I am comfortable with hair, makeup, and all other aspects of styling. For these reasons, I typically charge $100/hr to shoot, for 2-4 hour period. Being that I have an extensive personal portfolio, TFP isn't as attractive of an arrangement as it may once have been. That's not to say I won't shoot TFP with a photographer whose work I find particularly compelling, but it is rare these days. Still...shoot me an email, make a proposition, if you have a concept in mind. I'm always interested to meet talented people with a unique perspective or style.

In terms of subject matter, I tend to prefer things with an unusual bent. I like to be able to imagine a story behind a photo. If I am shooting a sensual photo, I prefer for it to possess a hypnotically alluring quality, as opposed to simply being overtly sexy. My stylistic influences are largely french bohemian, with a penchant for dark surrealism. I love exploring concepts of dream states, paranormality, and subversive human behaviour. Classical art imagery, natural settings, as well as clean and impactful portraiture. I like beautiful, but I love odd. Combining the two makes me very happy.
