About me & my look:

Hi! I am Kiara Leigh, UK based model & performer. I am friendly, enthusiastic & always excited to meet new people. I have a great passion for modelling and creating the perfect image.
- I am 6 ft tall and have a slim, but curvy frame which can suit a lot of different types of clothing.
- My skin is pale and usually blemish free
- My eyes are very blue.
- I currently have dyed black hair, just past my shoulders, happy to wear wigs and have clip in hair extensions which I can apply and style myself if longer hair is needed.
- I have some tattoos, which some people may consider a lot, others still see a lot of blank skin. These include an almost full black & white sleeve on my left arm, a smaller tattoo of a peacock feather on my right forearm, a tiny key tattoo behind my left ear and various larger and smaller tattoos on my left leg. These can be covered by clothing/makeup if needed.
- I have two nose piercings, one ring and one stud, I have a lip ring on the right side of my lip and two navel piercings, all of these can come out if needed.
- I have a small 14mm ear tunnel in each ear, with various tunnels that I can change them to, but usually wear plain black tunnels. I am happy to take these out, I also have tunnels that can be worn to make them look like plain earrings, if needed.
- I own a large wardrobe of clothing that I can use for shoots.
- I am very happy to change my look accordingly, depending on the brief, so please don't be put off my the amount of 'alternative' style images in my portfolio.

Experience:

I have 7 years on/off experience but have been modelling on a more full time basis for the last 4 years in many different styles.
- I have been involved in a few catwalks, ranging from high end hair shows to wedding events, to alternative fashion events.
- I had my first collaboration photo shoot in an alternative fashion style on location and a dark horror shoot in the woods on the same day when I was 16 to make a start to my portfolio & I have not stopping shooting since ( I am now 23)
- My first paid modelling job was when I was almost 18, for a live hair show & catwalk.
- I have a lot of experience in alternative modelling, I very much enjoy alternative modelling as it fits well with my personality and preferred style. I work well with the outrageous and sometimes dark feel of it & I am always thinking up new ideas for this style. In an alternative style, I have worked with various clothing brands, alternative themed video work, horror, gore or dark and creepy themes, fire, alternative hair & makeup and a whole lot more.
- I've featured in a few music videos, acting/performing, I have also been involved in a few other video/acting projects. I definitely wish to collaborate on music video modelling in future. I feel I have a few skills that could really add to a video ( See links below for videos i have featured in & read on for more of my additional skills. )https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJf0Jjb_OFAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrfmMdlM0Rwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?vBig smile6l805DQ83Q( 1- The Dreamer Within by Ben Lumber, 2- Embers of Eden by Robert Doran, 3- Lara Kaitlin Media )
- I have 2 years experience as a fire & pyro dancer and performer. As a solo artist or with my 4 piece fire group 'HELLRAZER' . As a group we have performed at festivals, street parties, private partys, nightclubs & a lot more. ( See HELLRAZER on Facebook or Instagram for more )
- Alongside having worked with many different styles & accepting any challenge that has come my way, I have modelled for high fashion clothing brands & have been a promotional model for promo material such as posters for brands, businesses and events.Styles:

At first look, my portfolio is heavily very alternative. I very much rock the 'alternative' look and feel I am very good at it. But please don't let this put you off as I am very up for a challenge and I also really enjoy working in other styles.I have and I can do fashion, editorial, catwalk, commercial, alternative, video, performing & I am open to pretty much any style.I strictly will not shoot anything with a glamour or erotic theme & I will not shoot nude, for any price. I will consider shooting mild implied nude ( if I am appropriately covered) & hints of lingerie if it adds to the desired look on some occasions, but this must be pre-discussed & add something to what we create! Smile

Additional skills:

- Clothing design: I have my own clothing brand called 'Poison Freak' which I shoot and model regularly & can add something interesting to a photoshoot
- Hairdressing: I have been hairdressing for 6 years, so I can supply my own hair styling for shoots
- Makeup: I have mild experience in make up & am able to supply my own makeup when it comes to shooting if needed.
- Fire / pyro performance: I am an experienced & insured fire performer with all of my own equipment. My skills include: Fire fans, fire poi, fire staff, fire sword, body burning, fire eating, fire double staff, fire dancing, angle grinding, LED poi & more.

Rates & Travel:

- My rates are very reasonable They may vary depending on the shoot. I am very happy to discuss this via message.

- I am based in Exeter. I don't drive (yet), but I am very happy to travel for shoots as long as costs are covered.

- I rarely collaborate or work tf currently as my diary is very busy & modelling is one of my main jobs. Unless it is for a brand/client that I really want to work with or I feel my portfolio could really benefit from it. However, I am up for working for part pay/part tf for some photo shoots. Although modelling is a career for me, I will always give 100% as it really is my dream job & always has been. Please don't hesitate to contact me to discuss anything further & book a shoot with me.
