Why modelling?

I joined the industry as I really enjoy telling a story through my shoots, I am especially passionate about expressing femininity and female empowerment through art.

Having my own business motivates me, I enjoy growing my brand and creating art with different clients. I am extremely easy to get along with and I have a warm and funny nature, I'm quite a relaxed person so any shoot with me will be very easy and full of creativity.

 

Experience

I am an internationally travelled model having shot in the jungles in Bali to the deserts around Dubai with upcoming shoot in the tundra of Iceland!

I have vast experience of all forms of modelling and I'm always looking for opportunities to grow my skillset or improve on my modelling technique. I have shot many different formats from music videos, to action shots on quad bikes and yachts, magazine editorials and their covers. I have worked with animals both wild and tame from elephants and turtles to cats and dogs.

Further to this I have also shot in jungle swings, treehouses waterfalls, penthouses, cliff faces and even underwater! I can turn my hand to any assignment and bring my own creativity and energy to each shoot.

 

Styles and levels

Fashion, outdoor, dress up, beauty, bikini, lingerie.

I only shoot classy projects, I don't mind shooting something sexy but not anything erotic or styled for the male gaze, I also don't shoot glamour shots. 

My wardrobe provides looks for many different occasions, I have a lot of bikinis and lingerie from my Bali shoot, as well as gowns, dresses, hats, wigs and dress up clothes.  I am happy to send pictures of outfits prior to the shoot to see what styles work for you best.

I do bring a chaperone with me to shoots above fashion for my safety and prevent level pushers, this industry is filled with amazing photographers but its no surprise there's a few questionable characters on this site. Trying to negotiate  the presence of  chaperone with me will raise red flags and I will refuse work with togs for it. The chaperone can be an extremely useful tool to you as they will help with set up (if required), create behind the scenes videos, help with accessories, make up, hair, and not to mention provide beverages and snacks through out the shoots for us both!

 

Hair and Makeup

All hair and makeup will be done myself but will be discussed prior to the shoot giving you an idea and options of the kind of look we can do.

 

Studio space

I'm happy to have clients shoot in my home based in Plymouth, I usually shoot in my room, (I have a beautiful fire place in their) or the living room, but the hallway can also be used, for examples of work shot in my house please DM me.

If you wish to shoot in a studio space this can also be organised for a small fee at the local Trident Studio in Plymouth.

 

Communication

Private message me if you would like to work with me, there we can discuss your ideas and any mood-boards you have to go with them. I’m happy to contribute ideas and looks I think you might like, let’s get creative! 

 

Clients

I am happy to work with new and old photographers, I work for pay most of the time but I will take on the rare collaboration project if this is something that will make my portfolio stand out. Please do not be offended if I cannot collaborate with you it is nothing personal, this is my job so a girl has got to eat.

 

Prices per hour

My standard rate is £30.00 per hour

Full day (8 hours, All levels included)- £150 (Anything outside of Devon I will need to be booked for the full day)

Plus any additional travel expenses.

I shoot for 2 hours minimum (3 hours if I have to travel for more than 2 hours one way).

Please note that prices will increase if I am on tour, this is to cover the Airbnb cost.
