Ria Williams

Hi there, my name is Ria! :)

PLEASE NOTE: I AM GOING TO BE IN AUSTRALIA FROM THE 23RD AUGUST FOR A YEAR SO IF ANY FELLOW AUSTRALIANS WOULD LIKE TO SHOOT, PLEASE GET IN TOUCH! :) 

About me: I am a 26 year old model from Somerset, UK. I'm a very keen surfer and skateboarder and also enjoy other activities such as, music (I used to play the bass guitar), walks, anything to do with the ocean and although I'm usually in front of the camera I do enjoy being behind the camera too doing wildlife and landscape photography.

About my modelling/goals: I have been modelling for around 2 years now, however I have had some previous experience when I was 18-20 years old. I have found a true love and passion for modelling and I would love to become a full time model. Doing something I adore as a job is a massive goal for me. I have had plenty of experience with various different photographers in both studio and location. I was also a model for music videos on an album which was released in 2021, so I have some experience with filming too. I have been building up my portfolio recently, but now I'm really looking to push forward with my modelling and make it my career!

Limits: I'm pretty open with new ideas whether it's poses, fashion, places or working along side other models etc. However, I do not feel comfortable with going fully nude or topless for any shoots. (Things like this will be discussed when planning the shoot). I am more than happy to shoot in underwear, swimwear or bikinis to certain extent, depending on the shoot and if I feel comfortable enough. Different rates may apply for different types of shoots.

Travel: I have my own form of transport so I am willing to travel to a certain extent, depending on how far the drive is, where the location is that I'm driving to and the travel expenses. Travel expenses will be discussed when planning a shoot.

Make up & hair: I'm not very experimental when it comes to doing my own hair and make up as I have never really worn make up. The most I wear is some mascara, eyeshadow, eyeliner and occasionally some false lashes. I don't wear foundation or any coverage on my face. I like to embrace my freckles, especially in the summer! The same goes with my hair, I don't really like to put too much heat on it, so it's usually fairly straight. However, if there's a certain look you'd like whether it's my hair or make up, I'm willing to try it, as long as it doesn't involve doing a full face of make up, because I don't own any kind of foundation haha! If it’s anything out of my league then a hair and make up artist will be needed.

Availability: I am currently working part time in retail, however, I'm fairly flexible. I can do most weekends and weekdays although on Sunday's, Monday's and Tuesday's I do have work but not until 5pm, so can always squeeze in a shoot in the day before hand if it's relatively local.

Rates: Portrait & fashion - £30ph

Swimwear & bikini - £40ph 

Lingerie & underwear - £50ph 

Petrol costs depend on how far I’m driving, so will be discussed prior to the shoot.

Thank you so much for reading and I'm excited to be working with some new talented people!
