Delysia Lafosse

Hi-de-Hi Purplely People!

My new revamped 'pin-up modeling' name is Delysia, (I'm also known as Charlotte, Lottie, Coco and Charlie). As I'm completely captivated with everything nostalgic & vintage. I thought I would fling myself back into the modeling game again. I modeled for years until I turned to photography myself. I was formally a dance/art-nude/life model and had a profile on 'model mayhem'. With my own photography though, I took the still-life road, working for the likes of TK MAX & Gems TV, amongst the boring packshots for Unilever and P&G. The last couple of years I have traded as a food photographer, its a fab job as you get loads of free food, but from that, as you can see I'm not a size zero anymore!! Don't get me wrong, I love being a foodie and snapping food. So 'vintage modeling' is definitely the way to go hey, with all my NEW sweet & sexy curves. 

Through my bestie, Kitten Von Mew. I have found myself thrown into the vintage scene. I now also have a vintage photography company, but want to have a dabble back in modeling, earn some pocket-money and have a bit of fun on the way.

About

I would most definitely say I have a 'classic' look, I like the traditional styles of the 1930s/40s/50s. I will most certainly also do lingerie and implied nudity, but no longer full. Done that, been there!

Hair and Make-up \ Body Art

I am able to do my own vintage make-up style, curls in hair too, but I'm still struggling with hair up-do's. So we are generally both able to build portfolios on a small budget. I have no irregular piercing and no tattoos. 

Of course, I'm not perfect 'no one is', but I adore and prefer my curves and the confidence it's given me with the passage of time. In fact, if you asked me to trade my 30's for my 20's - I'd say on ya bike!

Clothing and Accessories

As I am already heavily into the vintage and pin-up scene, I have a large collection of retro clothes and accessories, I'm a bit obsessed

Expenses/Travel/Paid

As I am taking a sabbatical until the latter of 2020, I can work most days, the weekend is usually taken up with family commitments. As I was a modeling coach in my mid-twenties, I'm well attuned with poses, etc, so able to work with and without direction. Willing to travel everywhere in UK/Europe. Travel expenses must be discussed beforehand. 

Implied nude (only willing to work with togs that are experienced - selected photographers).

Rates

Unless we have been discussing a collaboration, that would suit us both. Then my rates are Generally: £30 per hour. Lingerie: £35 per hour - Implied nude £40 per hour. Plus travel expenses. 

My minimin hour/s for a shoot, (location or studio) is 3 hours, depending on location and how far it is from Birmingham. I do not have a car at present, but happy to travel anywhere.

Hope you stop by to say hello.
