About me!

Hi, I’m new to this world, aspiring to try something new!  
I require some level of direction, but I’m usually very good at picking up things quickly.

I love to laugh and will always be a huge cheerleader for other models in the shoot and I absolutely cannot take myself too seriously! Every experience that’s new I throw myself into and get a little nervous but once I’m comfortable I’m a bundle of energy!

I love the feeling of empowerment being in front of the camera offers and want to spread a body positive message to people on socials.

Rate and availability:
Happy to do TFP and expenses work whilst building out a portfolio, I work full time so my availability is quite limited but I have annual leave and can work flexibly if I need to! 

I drive so can travel to locations - as I’m renovating I do not do shoots from home. 
No open leg or explicit video.

Shoot T&Cs:

1.  No unedited or Raw photos will be published without my consent. Be that on PurplePort or any other website or social platform. 
2. From an TFP shoot I would expect a minimum of 5 edited photos, (per outfit or location) and travel money to & home from the shoot location in return for my time.
3. I do not currently shoot anything higher than fashion with photographers I haven’t previously met with or shot with unless otherwise agreed. This is to ensure both parties are comfortable with each other and will get the most out of the shoot and pictures. 
I will happily meet you for a coffee first, do a video call or do a fashion shoot before hand. 
4. Please do not touch me or items on me unless I have given you permission to do so. 
5. I will come to shoots prepared with at least one other outfit- I will not wear clothes other models have worn unless previously agreed or there is a particular theme that requires a costume. 
6. If you require me to wear items to achieve a certain look that I do not currently own, purchasing of these items will come at your cost. If I purchase then, I will liaise with you about the items to ensure I’m purchasing something suitable and will expect reimbursement at the shoot. 
7. I am aware of my physicality - please be mindful of how your words can be interpreted. I do not like being told “I’m looking very sexy” in an item or “I’m being a tease” or “wearing that must get your partner excited” - when showing the outfit selections I have. I find this language objectifying and uncomfortable. 
8. Respect my boundaries- I’m very polite but that will diminish if I feel uncomfortable or like you’re asking me to do something I’m not comfortable with. 
9. If you intend to financially gain from the photos we take, eg selling them in a book or magazine/ Competitions with financial Prizes, I request a copy of these at cost to the photographer/publication and a credited mention. 
10. If you provide me with Raw images, unless otherwise stated these are mine to do as I choose. Be that to edit them myself or use another service to edit them. I will not change any of the edits you provide me.

I love a Pinterest board or mood board so please give me some indication of what you want to achieve from our shoot so we’re aligned. 

Let’s have fun and create some great photos!
