EXPERIENCE:

Internationally published professional. I trained as a dancer and choreographer in my youth. My favourite subject is ballet.

Based in the UK till 2022, but now based in central France 40km south of Limoges on the Haute-Vienne / Dordogne border, postcode 87500. I also own accommodation and a shoot venue in Axat (11140). I speak very good French. I am police checked, and carry 5m EUR public liability insurance.

VERY IMPORTANT: I have painful arthritis in both thumbs and wrists so I AVOID SMS TEXT except in an extreme emergency. So PLEASE - TALK TO ME on the phone - +33 (0)780 280 791.

WORKING WITH ME:

I work mainly on location.

Chaperones are welcome although I find most experienced models don't bring them. All I ask is, please, NOT the boyfriend. It simply does not work. Chaperones do come in handy, holding props and reflectors for example. Models under 18 must always be chaperoned by a parent or legal guardian.

You will be asked to sign a model release for all work and a French legal document called a Droits d'Image.

I regularly offer paid work to models - a mixture of commercial advertising, fashion and product photography, and some erotica.
