"Mythological forest creature, shape-shifter, Muse.

Hair like the roots of Ancient Trees, I need woods and mossy grounds to thrive. That said, I do pretty good in a studio too.

I love plants, good stories, reptiles, vegan food, jazz, Tom Waits and old things."

***WORK****

• Professional, experienced, versatile and reliable, very good at following directions but I'm also creative and enjoy trying new and different ideas all the time. Devoted to art and the creation of beautiful images. I am good fun to work with I'm told :) 
• Appearance-wise I am curvy and feminine, with olive skin and very long NATURAL dreadlocks...(19 years long dreads, no extensions!...) :)
• I can do my own make-up and style my hair to a good level but I do recommend hiring a good MUA and/or hair stylist, if you have budget (hair stylist particularly as my hair can be made into amazing sculptures!), and this can be a brilliant added bonus for more creative, beauty/fashion/fantasy themed shoots.
• I have a wide selection of outfits I can bring to a shoot: fairy tale dresses, jewelry and props.
• I have a car, a passport and love travelling. Please message me if you'd like me to come to your area, I will do my best to fit you into my schedule!
