Alkemie Jane

GO ON- IMPRESS ME.

Alright kids, it's official- I am no longer shooting just for the sake of being in front of a camera. I've spent 3 years building experience and a portfolio, and I'm done playing around.

Unless you are a personal friend, I'm narrowing the field. Let's talk if...

-you're on my photographer wish-list
-you have awesomesauce work i absolutely cannot live without
-you have concepts that make my heart go "squee!"
-you're a really awesome model as well, and I get to take your picture too
-you are offering tearsheets- magazines, books, gallery-shows, etc.
-we would be collaborating with super-sick designers/stylists
-you will trade for items on my wish-list of doom (I'll send it to ya upon request)
-you have a place for me to crash when I'm traveling, will pay for said-travel, or aid me in the food-n-smokes department when I'm in your neck of the woods
-you want to pay me (please feel free to ask for my rates- they are a bit flexible)

This isn't meant to make anyone cry, but that's it. The end. Mind you, it doesn't hurt to ask- just don't be all butt-hurt if I decline.

Now that the BS is out of the way, let's get down to it.

MY NAME IS AJ. I LIKE TO MAKE ART.

"I went into the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life... to put to rout all that was not life; and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived." -Henry David Thoreau

This is my attitude toward art and life. I want to create and explore, with no reservations.
Bring me something new to try- crazy, creative, erotic, emotional, personal, pretty, anything!
I will be there on time, ready to work hard and make some art we're both happy with.



COMFORTS
I love being naked, revealing something of my personality, and being tied up. I like playing characters, but I prefer playing myself. If you have a specific concept in mind, lay it on me and we'll see where it leads.

GOALS
In addition to being The Nekkid Wonder and creating art, I am massively interested in adding more tearsheets to my portfolio, collaborating with stylists (of all persuasions) and clothing designers, and rockin' something NEW. (Note- for the love of god, if you offer something I don't already have, PLEEEASE contact me.) If any of this sounds up your alley, drop me a line and let's work something out!

COMPENSATION
I am sorry to say, I only accept limited TF* offers. (This is what I do to make a living, so please be considerate of that.) On the other hand, I'll do a lot for work that really blows my mind!

INSPIRATION
I love all things dark, horror, and bloody, fetish fashion (especially vinyl!!!), crazy out-there naughty fetish goodness, burlesque, fashion-nudes, alternative fashion, and true gothic, but please have a look at my lists to see what catches my attention!

TRAVEL
I love to travel. Sadly, I am not wealthy by any stretch of the imagination. If you'd like me to travel to you, more than likely I'd be happy to, but you will need to cover at least most of my travel expenses. Please message me if you're interested!

ME
I have one tattoo- a small black ankh on my left hip, my left earlobe is pierced twice, my right earlobe is pierced three times, and I have a considerable number of small scars on my hands, arms, and legs. These are a part of me, for better or worse, and I ask that you DO NOT photoshop them out without at least talking to me about it first. I also have a pretty epic scar on my ass at the moment (fading fast, but it's there for the time being). Please feel free to edit that one out. I change my hair frequently, and will be posting an updated picture shortly.

STYLISTS/DESIGNERS/ETC.
Pleeeease contact me. Seriously. I am dying to do some work in, y'know, clothes, just for a change of pace. This would make me a very happy panda!

STALK ME
i respond to MM messages rather quickly most of the time, but if you're dying to find me elsewhere...
