About Me

Expose yourself to your deepest fear. After that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free." -Jim Morrison

*** I never use this website anymore.
I am a mostly retired fine art model and actress with over 16 years of experience.
These days, I'm based on the Jersey Shore and work full time as a journalist.
This profile is mainly here as an official account to discourage fake accounts from presenting as me.
I still accept a few (paid) modeling/acting assignments per year on a very selective basis.
Please contact me at [email protected] for booking.
Thank you for your commitment to the arts.

Elsewhere on the Intrawebs:
Book: http://www.blurb.com/b/7851689-monique-poet-muse
Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4010095
Facebook: Monique Poses
Model Society: http://www.modelsociety.com/model/monique


Please ask for my rates.
Accepting paid work only with very limited exceptions.
-I require a 20% deposit at booking.
-If you cancel within 7 days of a booked shoot, I require a 50% fee.
-Everything is formalized in a written agreement that you can review prior to signing/payment.

Trade
-I only trade for projects that are mutually beneficial. I am highly selective about what paid, and especially unpaid, work I will do. If it is not inspiring and fulfilling for me, I am not interested.
This might mean books, publications, or exhibit pieces. This might mean I have rights to the images for my Patreon, or for my own books, publications, or exhibit pieces.
(*I sincerely do not appreciate being led to believe we are working towards this end, and then never seeing our images).

Disclaimer
I apologize in advance to the photographers who take offense to this list below, or take this as the defensive or insecure postings of an angry model. This is not the case. I respect each and every one of you, & I urge you to check my references and learn that I am actually very easy going to work with and not uptight in the least bit.. Neither life, nor art, should be taken too seriously.. but this is a profession & I expect to be treated with respect.

ok, here goes..
I am NOT a pornography/fetish model OR a prostitute. Therefore:
-NO, I will not simulate masturbation or sexual activity.
-NO, you cannot shoot explicit shots of my crotch.
-NO, the term "erotic" is not necessarily synonymous with porn, or any of the above mentioned items^^
-NO, I do NOT need your help applying lotion, oil, etc to my nude body.
Wait, there's more..
-NO, I do NOT want a massage.
-NO, I will not give YOU a massage.
-NO, I do not want to be sexually involved with you. Don't proposition me for sex.
-NO, offering me more money or copious amounts of alcohol will not change the status of any of these terms.
Just one more thing, if, after reading this list, you send me an email asking if there is any way I will compromise in spite of this list-- the short answer is, you guessed it, NO. You really don't want the long answer. Trust me.


Please contact me via MM messaging.
thanks for reading :)
