Zhènya

                                          Hi everyone! Welcome to my portfolio!

 

My name is Zhenya. I am a London based visual artist and model. I have been modelling for more than eight years now initially as a hobby which has eventually turned into something much more serious and I am absolutely enjoying it! I have worked with variety of photographers on editorial, commercial, boudoir projects as well as tv and films. I am always open to new ideas and concepts, happy to bring some more creativity into the process. As you can see from my portfolio my style varies from portraits and lingerie to refined erotica and sophisticated, tastefully done nudes. What I appreciate is black and white film photography, moody and grainy shots, powerful narration and silence when needed. Photography is a love language and have learned how to play its tunes, sometimes behind the camera, but mostly in front of it as I still find mesmerizing the role of the model in embodying the spirit and soul of the creative idea. 

 

Simplicity and mystery to me is the key to a strong and impactful image. As well as a story. For that story to unfold I usually prepare accordingly, with hair and make up done at a very high standard (certified MUA). My mediterranean look has Eastern European roots, my slightly melancholic beauty combined with an exotic and voluptuous figure can be a great asset for any photographer. Being a visual artist I have a great eye for detail and understanding of lighting, colour theory, styling and how to bring all these together to help you create your next photographic work of art. 

Note: I have stepped out from modelling for a few years which has resulted in all my portfolio pictures being permanently deleted. I am slowly uploading them back to my profile, which considering the amount will take awhile. 

 

More about myself:

I am petite, 5'4. Dark brown hair, olive skin, athletic figure. I exercise regularly. I have two tattoos - back & ankle.  

I do my own makeup, I also have a wide range of clothing and lingerie to choose from.

Levels - portrait / editorial / fashion / lingerie up to art nude. NO adult or open legs, NO glamour or anything very explicit.

I don't shoot from home.

I am very selective with the photographers I work with. Only serious and professional attitude is accepted. It’s a two sided relationship, so let’s make it a meaningful one! 

I don't do TFP unless I have already worked with the photographer or is a very creative project I would like to be involved in.

Travel must be covered outside of Zone 5.
