About Me

Aspiring Jane of All Trades, I am looking to work with dedicated photographers, models, and stylists.

Education: studied design, art theory, and business and fashion marketing.
Workwise: events (prom, makeover, etc.), test shoots, lookbooks.

When they say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, they don't lie. My mother is an aesthetician and used to design clothing for my pre-K self and had a seamstress bring it to life. She had a wall full of shoes, and a good looking accessory was a best friend. Fast forward about two decades and you have the second volume (a shoe addiction VISA can attest to, and a propensity to design in various mediums - most often with makeup).

Some of the shots in my port have been styled, directed, shot, and makeup done all by yours truly. I like to dabble a bit in everything (especially when other people no show, and creative direction comes with the package. [[My moneymaker is makeup, though - to clear up any confusion.]]

----------------------------------------------------------

TF/TFCD - I am not against doing a shoot to benefit all involved parties, but I will ask for a kit fee depending on how many looks we decide on. Two looks or more, plus staying for the entire shoot for touch ups and tweaks will generally call for a kit fee. This is very reasonable, and goes to replenish cleaning supplies (wipes, disposables, etc.).

I also ask that when doing a TF shoot I get access to choose several images for edit (getting only two images that the Photographer or the model likes from the whole shoot is not fair). Last but not least - if the shoot is well beyond my location (i.e. the only way to get somewhere is driving 40 miles/Greyhound bus), a pick-up/compensation of some sort would be appreciated.
