ELLE: 

Aerialist, fire eater, mermaid, model, dancer and wolf tamer. 

 

I specialise in underwater modelling and animal handling/modelling alongside my performing dogs for shoots. I have been working as a house model for tankspace since the studio opened and have spent several years as a circus artist and performer making me flexible and able to shape my body in exciting and emotive ways both in and out the water. 

I have two portable aerial rigs that can be built on location or in studios for shoots, access to my own private woods and a special fx quality silicone mermaid tail that can be used in and out the water.

 

Performance dogs:

Taika

Taika is a Lupine wolf dog and has been bred to look as close to a wolf as possible. He is outgoing, curious and full of personality. He is currently 8 months old and weighs 36kg. 

He has a mix of two-toned fur along his body with very distinctive facial markings. He has golden yellow eyes that due to his wolf percentage, will reflect light in the dark so you can achieve the wolfy glow-in-the-dark effect in certain lighting. 

Taika can shoot in most photography environments and has experience in studios and various outdoor environments. He can work with other models, with me or on his own. He can work with continuous or flash lighting. 

Roo 

Roo is a 4 year old Samoyed with beautiful, white fur and dark eyes. He is very intelligent and is a typical, talkative sammy. Due to his aloof nature and excited chatter, he is more suited for remote shoots or studios that don’t mind him singing the songs of his people during the shoot. 

I am currently only accepting shoots for Roo that require him to model with myself, or a model he already knows. 

LOCATION:

We are based in Nottinghamshire and can drive to most locations. We also have a private forest that can be hired for certain shoots. 

 

RATES: 

My rates are £30 per hour with a minimum of 2 hours. 

 

Taika's rates are £40 per hour with a minimum of 2 hours for booking, however, if you wish for both of us we can come as a pair for £50 per hour. 

 

I work up to implied, though will work up to art nude for photographers and studios I have a good working relationship with.

 

 

For shoots that require me to model with Taika, we will bring a chaperone or additional handler to help during the shoot, which is non-negotiable. This will be someone professional who will cause no disruption and simply be there to assist me if needed.
