𝓗𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓸 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓦𝓮𝓵𝓬𝓸𝓶𝓮 𝓽𝓸 𝓶𝔂 𝓹𝓸𝓻𝓽𝓯𝓸𝓵𝓲𝓸 

Since last summer I have been away for one year fully renovating my mothers home 2021 til now. This was a very complex task and still is a ongoing task for other parts of the house that have ended up becoming major projects. My home was built in 1855.

The victorian living room and wood burner are now ready for use :) 2023

Now not taking any more works as me and partner have to renovate brick walls and a load bearing wall and 9 metre long timber frame windows that hold a length of a roof up with timber framing alone and no lintol. extensive damages have happened to the imperial bricks and foundations and the house needs repointing to make it weather proof so lots to do! and only will be taking on large work loads that are completed in one day as I literally cannot take anymore work.

I have had to rearrange shoots at my home as unforeseen circumstances have occurred where structural maintenance needs to be carried out on my property and to save a substantial cost I will being doing most of the tasks that are needed.

This is a operation get my home breathing again, my home is listed grade 2 and was a watchmakers property for hand crafted watches in the 1800's and is one of the last remaining topshops in its original entirety and needs a lot of maintenance and physical mental planning for this. 
I apologise for everyone who I have had to cancel or rearrange with, and for the people who have left me negative references. Others must try to see the unknown and consider what others have to deal with and communicate about things before leaving negative references. This may come across as odd but this has been going on for 2 years. I only have 2 rooms available to shoot and the rest of the home needs serious attention to the brickwork floor walls and ceiling and part of the home needs a rewire. The house has suffered badly from damp in the past due to elevation levels and wrong choice of materials so iv made it my life mission to sort all of this while im young and have the strength. I can understand some of you put work first but this is a life changing thing and decisions have to be made for the best of my future and the home to be economically efficient to live in. Because at the moment its awfully cold and costs ten fold for the energy bills. So here's my honesty and a little bit about me, I usually stay silent and then that in itself leaves people to judge for themselves and end up coming to the wrong conclusion of me and my time keeping. 
I have chosen to do this 2 years ago and its still a ongoing thing and I do not know when it will end. I had taken myself out of work last year and even the year before that. So for the people who do know me they know who I am and im true to my heart. And its outrageous for people to take there frustrations out on me and leave me bad references because I had to rearrange due to all what is going on. This is so much for me right now that I have almost had a nervous breakdown on many occasions as I have a lot to deal with and care for my mother while being self employed.

1. removing cement from whole house pointing and re lime the pointing to allow it to breathe

2. remove cement flooring and relay aggregates and lime Crete the floor.

3. Replace 9 metres full length historic casement windows

4. redbrick damages water/cement damaged bricks and in the foundations

5. rewire the other half of the house

6. install French drains along perimeter of the house

Guys and girls I have a 3 story home with 11 rooms it takes time and patience to renovate a Victorian home and also exceedingly high costs are always on the margin. So again people should consider what they do before assuming the worst about me. As I have a story to tell even though mostly im silent. I have given up everything almost to fix my home.

I hope this does not come across arrogant but I have come to my wits end with people being obnoxious and not trying to understand me and not take it to heart that I must cancel a shoot.

I'm a model with 5 years of modelling experience, adaptable with bouncing energy ambitious and self driven with a youthful character and raw attitude

I am friendly and compassionate to each and every photoshoot. Striving for the best image, I need little direction and can quickly improvise a theme, style or look within the photoshoot that you desire. I am dedicated towards photography and quality of images I can help you produce as a model.

Welcoming anyone to work with me on modelling styles consisting of fashion, lingerie, commercial, lifestyle, boudoir & art nude, creating stunning images with photographers of any level.

Love to shoot at my studio or out on location or a your private residence/studio (I just ask you have a back-up plan in case of bad weather if we shoot outside i.e thunderstorms and 30mph winds :) )

 

𝓛𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓵𝓼 : Implied, Fashion, Art Nude, Erotic

Switching alternatives to timeless pre-raphaelite, artistically inspired or fantasy themes.

For examples of these genres visit my portfolio images.

I can be highly expressive for a variety of looks whether you are looking for elegance, vintage (which I have a passion for), artistic nude or more powerful and erotic. Work with me and we can create a set of unique styles that are very natural and outstanding.

I have extremely high expectation of my modelling and I aim to bring the best of my talents to life with my posing and character.

I love to create a story and theme for my images to make them come to life.

 

𝓟𝓱𝓸𝓽𝓸𝓰𝓻𝓪𝓹𝓱𝔂, 𝓐𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓶𝓮, & 𝓘𝓷𝓼𝓹𝓲𝓻𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷𝓼

Photography has been something I have loved for a while and did a bit of this while at college some years ago with a compact. I studied Art in school and went onto college to finally do Art primarily but ended up finishing Art and going into Forensic science.

What a career change, anyway I furthered more into engineering and modelling after this and my desire for professional photography grew. Was always inspired to create beautiful image and got more into shooting when I bought a camera nearly 2 years ago.

I didn't have a clue what I was doing and learnt more from failing shots than getting things perfect how I really expected them to be. I looked up to a lot of pretty cool photographers and how they managed to capture certain aspects and angles that had such power and atmosphere to them.

With having only a slight bit of confidence as a model and nothing as a amateur photographer I persisted to learn from simply photographing myself in my mothers place or outdoors and challenging myself with different environments, time of day and location. If I wasn't happy with the end results including my travels to somewhere for a specific shot, no worries just try again.

Self taught from online methods combined with your own patience and repetition of using the camera, you can capture and successfully shoot in most environments with a bit of time. I primarily now shoot in natural light so sometimes the elements are against you and you need to shoot indoors. Over the past year in my own time I have been testing flash indoors and balancing with various strobe and continuous lighting with a mix of video led lighting.

There is soo much light that can be balanced for a beautiful ambient indoors if natural light isn't reliable. Im still learning and failing and I want to share this experience with you. Atmospheric shots inspire me such as empowering women, fashion, lifestyle portraiture and art nude. After some time of practising photography I learnt how to edit my own shots and shots of other models which has also given me more confidence to be more creative and outgoing towards photography. I stage and prepare the scenes and try to be creative where I can and always come up with something that inspires me.

There are a few erotic photographers I am quite fond of that are powerful images, such as Frank De Mulder.

Photography Equipment

24mm Nikon F1.8 (Best for landscape or outdoors or focussing on model and gain a whole panoramic view of the whole background, has slight distortion because of the wide angle but only if subject is quite close to the lens) 35mm Sigma F1.4 (Amazing for horizontal or vertical shots, great for a story telling lens portraits, full length and giving a cinematic feel, amazing colours and atmosphere this lens gives off and an amazing bokeh) 50mm Nikon F1.4 (An all round favourite lens for most shooting: Indoors, outdoors, landscape, portrait, vertical horizontal. Great for getting close ups quarter lengths and lovely DOF. 85mm F1.4 Sigma Art (This lens is my all time favourite and gives the most natural DOF close to the human eyes perception of real life. If you struggle with space it can be tricky to go further back but so much potential for outdoors and portraits indoors!, I use this lens indoors for 3/4 lengths/portraits and full lengths outdoors. This lens has the most amazing atmosphere and I am in love with it.)
