This is serving as my European portfolio-the location shown is the next/current location of my travels. Available for hire in all artistic capacities and happy to provide location when needed.

TL;DR:

I'm one of the "first generation" of professional roaming art models, formerly commercially represented in NYC + Lisbon, with a background in dance, theatre and classical music.  I call on my varied experience in the performance arts as my main inspiration to move and express through movement. . .

After 16 years, I'm adept at my job, and am also a photographer and teach photography, so when you shoot with me it is extremely difficult to take a terrible photo! :]

RTFM:
Hi.
I like art. 
In fact- I like art so much I attempt to make a living doing it.
    I dance in front of the lens + steal moments from behind it.

I also paint nature in all her glory, as well as abstract expressionism.

In a recent past-life, I opened/ran a very successful studio, where I taught photography, in the Baltimore area.

RETIREMENT=NONSENSE

As of 2019/20 I will continue to travel/tour & model on a part-time basis as allowed by the demands in my career outside of modeling.

I love to be outdoors, I love conveying emotion, telling a story, becoming a character, playing with props, using wardrobe, am the fabric-in-the-wind-on-a-sand-dune champ. I love direct-hard-lighting in studios, sets I can play in, a location that inspires me to step back in time.

As bad-ass as I sound now- just remember I'm a sweet little kitton who's afraid of heights and stairs, has Fibromyalgia (an auto-immune disorder), had/has Lyme's Disease, AND glass-to-the-bone-in-my-foot-with-shoes-on.
Oh.
And that one time we all almost fell off a mountain.... >.<
