About Me

Thank you for taking the time to look through my eyes.

Photography for me is about expressing my passion.
It allows me to delve into the world of fantasy, while remaining loyal to my ethics. Photography allows me to share the beauty and passion of the people of the world.

I have been shooting for about 30 years. While most of what I do is professional, this site is about shooting for fun.
However, I take every shoot seriously and strive for the best. Its not how we get the shot that counts, its what we see at the end.

I am always looking to add to my portfolio. If you are outgoing and love what you do, then lets collaborate.

Most of the images in my collection are of people, animals or life in general. Spontaneity, energy, professionalism and a zest for life are all part of creating that perfect picture.

Someone once told me to do what you enjoy, and that is what photography is to me.

I encourage input, ideas and contributions from the people I work with.

CODE OF CONDUCT
I generally don't shoot underage models, unless I know them.
You will need to show me an ID.
I don't shoot adult, although I have no problem with those that do.
I require contracts before we start shooting. These will generally describe the shoot format and use of images.
If you wish to bring an escort, they will need to show a picture ID, remain quiet and not interfere with the shoot.

TFCD's
I welcome these as long as we both benefit from it. I will provide a CD of high resolution select images at the time of the shoot. I don't release every image for quality control reasons.

PAID SHOOTS
I will occasionally pay models to build my portfolio or for specific projects. In this case my client or myself own ALL RIGHTS, but may still give you a set for personal use only. A good attitude will get you a long way.

Aim model · Model

Hey! Did you get my message? I’m a full time international model with 10+ years experience & I Aim on coming from CA to Phoenix around August 27th - September 3rd before going towards NM. I’d love to know if you would like to work with me while I am here or if you know anyone who might. This may be the only chance to shoot me in your area. Do you have recommendations on how else to get more work or who to reach out to? ABOUT ME; I am highly committed, passionate, reliable, open to working with artists of any level of experience & am very experienced in a wide variety of expressive poses. I’ve worked throughout AUS, NZ, UK, EU, Asia, Hawaii, & now in North America with plans to travel through other parts of the world. My many years of experience in the industry with a range of creatives from around the world have earned me features in multiple magazines, art galleries & exhibitions in a variety of countries. I’m open to modelling with other male or female models (locals or traveling) in the studio as well as on location in various conditions & throughout a broad range of styles. My extra talents; I’m a musician, I know how to free dive which is good for underwater shots, can horse ride, go on long hikes & also can crack a stock whip, I practice yoga, & have done basic pole & aerial hoop/silks. IG; @layal.official (non nudes) @aim.model (nude) @aim.backup.model1 (back up nude)
Please let me know if you are interested & have a preferred day/time to shoot along with what area you are coming from or have in mind to shoot. Please let me know if you are ok with doing a deposit or if you only pay cash on the day. If you are interested to work with me but not sure when/where/how, please let me know anyway so I know to follow up closer to my arrival. My RATES; for up to art nude $150 per hour for 2hrs or more or $550 for 4hrs or $1000 a day. This covers costs including my meals/drinks, public transportation, outfits I can bring, my own make up & other things to help me be the best I can for you. Surcharges; for 1hr only, light fetish & extra shooters. I do understand people have budgets so I can offer pay off methods where you pay the rate over an agreed time. If Instagram or WhatsApp or even email is better than discussing here, please send me your contact details. Thank you in advance for respecting me. Hope to hear from you soon, keen to see what we can do together, all the best & kindest regards.
