BIO:

I didn't always want to be a model. However; I have always loved art, and playing dress up ever since I was little, but I felt that models had to be tall, thin, blond, and busty. In today's world there are so may different options of what beauty is. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." And each photographer has their own definition of what beauty means to them. What one photographer thinks is a beautiful model, another may find too skinny, and find the natural curves of a woman to be beautiful. And I just learned all this recently, thus starting out my modeling career at a later age, and I have been proving this to myself ever since.

I'm 24 years old, but appear much younger. I'm far from a diva, what I am is a liberated free spirit, with a positive attitude; seeking photographers, that are open to new ideas, the ability to direct, advise & accentuate my stronger features. I'm an amateur model w/an open mind, with the desire to explore new avenues & push the limits in controversy. I'm also interested in looking to model in a surreal, fantasy, artistic, abstract manner. The more creative the better! I want to pull away from the ordinary; mundane world & be apart of a creation that make peoples eyes pop & do a double take. My passion isn't rooted from modeling, its from the appreciation I have for art. I love the idea of being apart of a piece art work that a photographer has created & seeing the photos come to life.

HOW I GOT STARTED:

I was working at an event for a friend, at Hustler's Gentleman's Club in Detroit, MI. Where the photographer from the Real Detroit Magazine sought me out, and was really interested in doing a photo shoot with me. Came back to look for me a second time to get my name and contact information, and gave me his card. He had this vision that I loved, and explained how he wanted me to be apart of a black and white shoot, with my body wrapped up in nothing but caution tape. He told me he loved my look, my bangs, my composure, etc. But having never done a shoot, I had no idea what to expect. He wanted to meet me at a hotel, far away, wanted to buy me drinks, and when I told him I was going to bring someone, he cancelled on me, and I never heard from him since. At that point I was a little disappointed, because if the shoot went well, I kept thinking the possibilities to land in the Real Detroit would have been amazing. So I decided I was going to start putting my name out there, and for the photographer that saw what that photographer from the Real Detroit saw, could contact me.

GOALS:

I would like to further my career as model by pursuing artistic prints, participating in various promotional events, and paid opportunities. I'm currently taking break from nude shoots until further notice; implied nudes okay. With that in mind please feel free to contact me if you're a creative photographer that is up for new and exciting challenges.

MISC.
I don't mind trade, but I will not pay photographers for work, as this is for side work/ hobby. Depending on assignments, and distance/travel I may charge.

My wardrobe contains formal, casual, swim, lingerie, and renaissance/ garb. I'm also looking to work with hair stylists, and make up artists. I'm willing to change alter my appearance for shoots.
