>About Me

I was born in Germany, in the city of Cologne,
but I spent all of my early life in Russia, in the city of St. Petersburg. 
This is my third year in England.
I am experienced, confident, down to earth and friendly. I love being in front of a camera and love creating exiting images.

!!! Nota bene: I only have a few references on PurplePort, but I'm not NEW to modelling, as I have previously worked as a full-time freelance model in Russia.

I am reliable, motivated and enthusiastic.  I’m very passionate about modelling and I take my work seriously, but all my shoots are fun and relaxed.  As a person I would describe myself as both very kind and fun to work with.  I enjoy making people smile (and laugh!).  I am not a Diva at all. I am a very hard working, ambitious and passionate about a variety of types of modelling and to help photographers achieve the best possible images.

Please message me for more information.

>Shoot Styles

See my profile for my shoot styles or contact me for further information.

>TFP

I am happy to work on a range of projects, but I would like to maintain the quality of my portfolio and my brand, so please only contact me for shoots that equal the quality of my portfolio, or get close. My modelling time is very limited so I would like to ensure that it is of the highest quality - this applies to TFP shoots primarily but I am also very picky about paid shoots. It's my prerogative.

>Traveling

I am more than happy to travel for shoots across the UK or overseas (travel expenses should be paid).  Unfortunately, I a not driving, but can travel via public transport.

      

 Thank you for reading this so far! Looking forward to work with you soon.)
