Welcome to my profile

I’m Samantha Joanne. I'm a model, obviously. But I'm also a new mother, a photographer and all round fashion enthusiast. I'm 22 and local to Wakefield and Leeds, West Yorkshire.

About Me

Being at both sides of the camera comes naturally to me. I specialise in fashion and certainly have the wardrobe for it. I treat my wardrobe like an investment in my modelling (either that or I'm obsessed with shopping). I love all things arty and creative so feel free to share ideas! I am more than capable of doing my own makeup, hair and styling to a high standard but I also love working with other creatives in the industry. I have full lips and bold eyes, so i'm easy to apply makeup too. My hair colour is forever changing because I'm indecisive about what I prefer. I currently have short brown/silver hair and can provide images if needed.

Down To Business

First off, my levels vary from photographer to photographer, this isn't personal, it's about building my professional relationships and networking as much as possible. I like to know the person I am working with. I do not shoot open leg. I do shoot up to art nude, depending on how comfortable I am. I will always make an agreement prior to shooting so all parties involved have an understanding, and miscommunication is kept to a minimum. 

My rates start at £20ph and go up to £40ph, depending on the assignment. The minimum booking requirement is 2 hours. A booking requirement of 4 hours is required if the travel is over one hour. I offer discounts on half day's (4 hours), full day's (8 hours) and multiple bookings. I'm open to trade work. If I feel your work will benefit my portfolio, give me good exposure or I love your creativity, feel free to drop me any ideas you may have.

In terms of travel costs, this must be covered; paid and trade shoots. I cannot travel anywhere without it being covered prior to the arranged shoot. For paid work, I do require a non-refundable deposit of 20% of the booking time along with travel costs, one week prior to the shooting date. This is simply because this is my only occupation and I need to arrange childcare for my little girl. 

All shoot arrangements must be discussed prior to the shoot: levels, theme, pay/trade, location, contact details and terms of the shoot. I require email addresses to send receipts and finalised shoot details to. I'm very organised about how I run my work and must keep contact details up to date.

Finally, I have a recognisable portfolio, all my images are designed in the same way.To stick to my specific portfolio style, photographers must agree to this before the shoot. The images are NOT edited further, I only put a border and background on the images. Any nude or partially nude work is to be sent to me uncensored, if agreed prior, as I put the censors for social media on myself.
