availability
A professional costumer, model, and dancer, I am available for assignments needing some or all of these skills. I am a performer with the ability to suspend reality and enter the realm of the character completely. I truly enjoy being in front of the camera, and that shines through in my images. My favorite shots are those with crazy artistic concepts where I can be creative, as well as themed shoots, and I hope to be adding more of these soon!
I am available for Editorial, Print, Fashion, Gothic or other Themed looks, Costuming or CosPlay, Novel Covers or other Artwork, Film, and Video. Editorial, Print, and Fashion are popular enough to be pretty self-explanatory. Gothic refers to a dark, morbid, and somewhat eroticized fashion - almost a Victorian look - made of lots of leather and lace. Themed can be include anything from costumes to bodypaint, like "nature", "office", "biker", and one I'm researching now - "goddesses"!! Costuming is designed to show off a specific costume I've created, and CosPlay is virtually the same, only the source of the costume is different. Novel Covers means the cover art on a book of some type and in some cases interior images as well, and the art tends to be either straight photos or art pieces based on photos. Artwork is a natural extension of this - I will sit for art sessions in whatever medium you desire to work with. Film and Video are both in the acting category because of the nature of their format (moving pictures). For these types of modeling I will consider both paid work and TFP/CD, though Artwork and Film/Video have different compensation forms/rates.
I am also an accomplished nude model (a.k.a. Fine Art, Figure, Art Nude) - this means that I am willing to pose with or without clothing in order to give an artistic depiction of a nude human form and to fill the creative vision of the artist/photographer (or model). This kind of photography is not meant to be sexual in any way (though as I've said before, some people may take it that way). I will only accept paid assignments for nude work, unless there's a specific technique or theme that both the photographer and I wish to shoot.
In a limited fashion, I might be available for Glamour, PinUp, and Fetish modeling. By this I mean that while I am not against these types of photography (one look at my portfolio will convince you of that), they are not my focus. I will only shoot with photographers who have something exquisite to bring to the table, and then only if we are both on the same page regarding the outcome of the shoot. I will consider both paid work and TFP/CD.
I do NOT accept any kind of adult entertainment work, so please don't ask. If what you're wanting to shoot doesn't fall into any of the above categories as I've defined them and/or doesn't already appear in my portfolio, chances are I'm not interested.
I will be making a wishlist or ideas page that will illustrate what ideas I'm considering, and it will also show whether I'm still researching/creating the look or am ready to shoot. If you are looking to be a part of my modeling in any capacity, that will be a page you want to pay attention to!
For commercial paid assignments, my rates are reasonable and negotiable. I am willing to accept TFP/CD projects with exceptional photographers and unique ideas, as stated above. Also seeking work in return for tear-sheets.
I am willing to travel, with all expenses paid. This generally means travel to & from, overnight accomodations, rental car or some sort of independent transportation, and a daily allowance for food and needed supplies. (Obviously the actual definition of "all expenses paid" will vary based on shoot.) If I choose to bring a companion, their travel and a daily allowace that is equivalent to half of mine would be required as well. They would stay with me overnight and we would share our transportation. I do not often choose to bring a companion, but there are times where both the photographer and model will feel safer that way.
Unless specified otherwise in a written contract, I am entitled to a photo CD with all raw images from our photoshoot in sufficient size/quality that I may print an 8"x10" at 300 DPI or higher resolution to use at my own disposal. I am also entitled to a copy of each image after your post-processing (i.e. after PhotoShop'ing) if you work like that. I do this because it is my goal to present our hard work in the most professional way possible, and if your style is in photoshopping the raw images, I want - need - to be able to display that! If it's not your style, I have enough experience to get the job done, though I generally do not do much, if any, retouching (or airbrushing). All photos seen on I Am Your Goddess.net have been re-sized and watermarked by me, sometimes in addition to what the photographer has done.
You will receive full credit and a link to your website/e-mail/portfolio etc. when I post your images on my site, and in the event that a company seeks to publish the images in print, I will contact you to discuss further. At the very least, your name will be credited for them.
Please e-mail me if you are interested in shooting with me!
