I'd like to thank you for taking the time to get to know me a little further. As you can see, I do not have much in the way of a proper portfolio, as of yet. However, I'm hoping to change that! Although my portfolio is rather lacking, I am not new to this side of the lens.

"Oh my gosh, you...are...stunning!! You must model?.....No?? Huh, well honey you should be…"

A beautiful dark haired woman with a slight Eastern-Block accent stops me (while the whole room stops to watch) in the overcrowded bar at the Ritz-Carlton. At nearly six feet four inches tall (that’s with my heels on), when I saw her motion to me to me, I thought she was going to say something about my height. To my surprise it was it was a heartfelt, honest, spontaneous vocalization. And as I looked around the crowded room into the elite of Dallas, the happy couples, the "cougars" looking for their "cubs", the lawyers, bankers, entrepreneurs, they were still captivated by this exchange and gave nodding glances in agreement. It was like they were all in agreement, I should do -something- with this gift.

She and I began to delve deeper into conversation, she found out when I was younger had pursued a modeling career. But at such a young age I was unprepared for many of the very adult situations (I'll have to admit - at 13 I was quite naïve). I do believe if I would have had a mentor things would have gone much differently than they did. But I did get to spend many hours on the runway, in front of the lens and working with all kinds of people on all types of projects. I told her when I look back at that time in my life I now say "OMG, I would LOVE to try that again, with what I know now!!"

Like many others on this site, I'm sure they could tell you a similar story. However for me, this would be the final time I would hear this oft repeated scenario and not act on it. So, here I come ModelMayhem.com!! (wink)

I've decided to venture back into this world to see if there is a place for me.
Now as an adult my horizons have been wonderfully expanded and I look forward to living life to the fullest every day. I am very excited to take a fresh walk down a well traveled road - won't you skip/dance/laugh and have fun with me while we both build our portfolios?

I hope to build my portfolio and yours with interesting, artistic and/or sexy shots.

What is your idea of the perfect person to "work with"? Right from the start you would want someone who shines in front of the camera, who has that "something" that people sense when she walks into a room, some call it an aura others call it being photogenic, please allow me to show you that side of me.
