Dark, sexy portraits

Looking for models (male and female) to collaborate some dark and sexy portrait/ beauty shots. Taking my inspiration from this amazing shot on PurplePort of model Carla Monaco

http://purpleport.com/portfolio/carlamulhearn/image/155390/model

If male then strong chiselled features and an athletic physique work well (crafted abs etc). For ladies, then strong features, a slender neck and stand-out eyes are perfect. Looking for classic, beautiful, commercial models for this casting please.

Level is up to implied nude but final shots will be 'safe for work'. When you apply, I'd also be grateful if you could say whether you're someone who can/ prefers to do their own styling/ make up or whether we'd need an MUA (either is fine).

In exchange you'll get a full set of professionally retouched images (a print set plus a web optimised set). I only use pro level equipment and lighting. Please see examples of my work on here plus at www.paulbeardphotography.co.uk

Looking to shoot evenings and/ or weekends in the next couple of weeks (all my days are full to the brim with other work). Chaperones are very welcome.

Thanks for reading this and hope to work with some great new talent soon

Paul
