Working with me

• The shoot must be con­sis­tent with our agree­ment - con­tact me if you have any ques­tions. The scope of the shoot is defined in the con­fir­ma­tion email that I send when I receive your deposit.
• Model release/​contract — If you work with one, please send it to me before the shoot day via email or my Contact page so that I can read or approve it. I will not sign con­tracts that I have not read in advance or that are offered on the spot.
• I do not shoot explic­it — Any pho­to show­ing my labia and but­t­hole must be deleted.
• Please do not touch me — no mat­ter the rea­son, unless con­sent is giv­en (such as mov­ing a hair out of my face or rear­rang­ing the cloth­ing on my body).
• Weather — If this is a nude shoot, tem­per­a­tures must be warmer than 15°C/60°F (indoors or outdoors).
• Safety ‑I reserve the right to refuse any pho­tog­ra­phy where my health or safe­ty is at risk.
• Privacy — any nude shoot must hap­pen in rea­son­ably pri­vate locations.
• Please inform me at the time of book­ing if you: 
  • Want to use cloth­ing or props that leave marks on the skin (ropes, corsets, etc.)
  • Want me to be cov­ered in of any sticky/​staining sub­stance (water, glit­ter, body paint, oil, etc.) — there must be facil­i­ties avail­able to clean up and this time will be includ­ed in the shoot­ing time.
  • Want me to pose with oth­er mod­els - I am very selec­tive in this regard so my answer will not always be yes. This must be agreed upon when booking.
  • Plan on shoot­ing with oth­er pho­tog­ra­phers — so I can check their portfolio/​credentials. If booked with mul­ti­ple shoot­ers, gen­er­al­ly I ask that those involved take turns to shoot sep­a­rate­ly, allow­ing for bet­ter com­mu­ni­ca­tion and stronger results for each photographer.

Exceptions

• Temperatures below 15°C/60°F - Shooting under these weath­er will be con­sid­ered only if you pro­vide a warm shel­ter, hot bev­er­ages and blan­kets imme­di­ate­ly on the set, and I reserve the right to can­cel or con­clude pho­tog­ra­phy depend­ing on weath­er conditions.

Right of withdrawal

I reserve the right to leave the shoot at any time and claim my rates paid in full if :

• the actu­al shoot does not cor­re­spond to the ini­tial­ly agreed upon project, for exam­ple (but not lim­it­ed to) : 
  • if I dis­cov­er last minute that I am to pose with anoth­er mod­el or for anoth­er pho­tog­ra­ph­er (or a group) with­out pri­or notice,
  • if the pho­tog­ra­ph­er tries to sneak his way into switch­ing the theme of the shoot from art nude to erotic/​pornographic material.
• my secu­ri­ty is endan­gered, for exam­ple (but not lim­it­ed to) : 
  • if I dis­cov­er that the shoot­ing loca­tion is not safe (dan­ger­ous wild ani­mals, risks of drown­ing, falling or any oth­er injury),
  • if I am asked to do ille­gal pub­lic nudi­ty, prop­er­ty tres­pass­ing, etc.
  • if the loca­tion to shoot nudes is in crowd­ed venues and in plain sight,
  • if any mem­ber of the shoot­ing team dis­plays any inap­pro­pri­ate behav­iour towards me (attempt to kiss me, touch me with­out con­sent, get­ting me drunk, etc.).

• Acting / Conceptual Art / Cinematography / Story-telling / Video,
• Beauty / Commercial / Editorial / Fashion / Hair / Lifestyle,
• Bodypaint,
• Dance / Movement / Yoga,
• Fetish / Shibari (very selec­tive­ly. Do not expect to shoot this style with me if we have not dis­cussed in correspondence)
• Fine-art / Artistic Nudes,
• Live mod­el­ing,
• Portrait,
• Underwater (so far, I have mod­elled around 10 under­wa­ter shoots in pools. I am con­fi­dent and relaxed to pose grace­ful­ly underwater).

I am ver­sa­tile as I love por­tray­ing dif­fer­ent pro­jec­tions of myself with­in sev­er­al kinds of styles. My artis­tic uni­verse tends to grav­i­tate around the realm of visu­al poet­ry, sur­re­al­ism, pic­to­ri­al­ism, abstract, cin­e­matog­ra­phy, Asian avant-garde and quirky fashion.

I enjoy both the adorned and the unclothed, as I think each can be pow­er­ful in its own way in mak­ing time­less imagery.

My inter­est lies in cre­at­ing artis­tic imagery. I reserve the right to not pose in a way I don’t feel is in line with my work­ing style or if I feel my health and well­be­ing are at risk. I also don’t pose in a way that por­trays me in a degrad­ing or overt­ly sex­u­al way and so I will refuse any trashy glam­our, adult styles, or paysite work (PornHub, Diverxity, Bentbox, etc.).

As a pic­ture is worth a thou­sand words, in addi­tion, I have cre­at­ed an anti-Pinterest mood­board con­sist­ing of styles of images I do not mod­el for. Please take a look here: https://​www​.pin​ter​est​.ca/​m​i​n​h​l​y​m​o​d​e​l​/​s​t​y​l​e​s​— i​— d​o​n​t​— model/

If you are not sure of my bound­aries, don’t hes­i­tate to ask.
