Let me introduce myself…

 

Hi I’m Nika Raya, a part time model based in Manchester.

I have been modelling part time for 5 years now, I am a professional bikini athlete so I take a lot of pride in my body and my looks. I stay in shape year round and go to a lot of fitness events! I take my job extremely seriously but equally love to make each and every assignment I take on a thoroughly enjoyable experience for all involved!

I am friendly and approachable, love to have a laugh and I am always delighted to hear new and exciting ideas so don’t be afraid to send a direct message here or alternatively message me on Instagram.

I am a big fan of any outgoing, crazy new ideas that are a bit out of the ordinary!

I have a very versatility look suited to a number of different genres and a number of different styles. I am also not afraid to chip in with any ideas of my own as I love to collaborate on set with the photographer and build a beautiful creative relationship.

I’m used to being in poses for a long time thanks to my bodybuilding background, I’m good at seeing what looks good on my body and how to manipulate my physique into nice shapes.

 

 

Travel:

I have a full UK driving licence and am willing to travel across the UK and International. I do ask outside of the North West that travel expenses are covered. It may be quicker/cheaper for me to take public transport so I will always work out the best option. 

 

Rates and Availability:

My current rates are £40 p/h up to classy lingerie (unless otherwise stated in a casting call). I do also shoot implied / art nude levels but these are always undertaken at my discretion and will be a slightly higher rate.

Please Note** I will only accept these shoots if we have built up a rapport previously, or if the project really speaks to me. 

Unfortunately, unless a project really stands out for me I will not be accepting TFP shoots at this time and only accept paid assignments.

This job is now something that contributes to my income and I need to use my time wisely to benefit either my portfolio or my income. 

 

T's & C's:

Please note that if you cancel a shoot 5 days before the agreed date I will require 50% of the agreed rate and 72 hours before would be the agreed rate in FULL. I am a very understanding person and will accommodate where I can but it may be difficult to organise alternative work if a shoot is cancelled within this time frame.

With regards to Model Release Forms I would ask that if one is required in order for us to shoot, that I am provided with a copy before we shoot. I would just ask that if one is provided on the day I am afforded the time to go over the form before the shoot starts.

 

A Final Note:

 

I am very passionate about what I do and shoots I take up. I have other professions beside this one but they all work in synergy with each other to build transferable skills. I love what I do and love being able to connect and network with likeminded people!
