Costumer, artist, and nerd-of-all-trades! I have several years of modeling experience, a willingness to do whatever it takes to get the shot, and a passion for fantastical imagery. My closet of costumes is massive, and growing all the time

Given enough notice, I can often create unique costumes or accessories for photoshoots. I can do my own makeup, but if you have a specific hairstyle besides "down" or "down and sorta wavy", you might want to enlist some stylist help.

My rates are reasonable and flexible based on the project, and I travel often.

Will shoot trade for:
- Awesome concepts, obviously. If you have an idea, pitch it at me! I have several outfits and accessories I have not gotten photographed that I'd love to build a shoot around!
- High quality stock photos from our shoot that I can use freely in my photomanipulations and art prints. For examples of my work, please check out my digital artist profile (http://www.modelmayhem.com/3650916) or DeviantArt page (thechainmailchick.deviantart.com) I am more than happy to provide you with a copy of the finished image!
- Latex clothing, shoes/boots, weapons I don't have in my collection, high end lingerie.
- a mermaid tail. I really want one T_T

Anyway, I think that's about all that's relevant. Feel free to message me if you're interested in setting up a shoot, have questions about costuming, or just want to make a new friend!

I love working with Allegriana, because she always brings out my best. Whatever we're shooting: fashion, cosplay, horror, fantasy - I know she's going bring creativity, artistry, and a willingness to experiment. She nails her poses, and  can hit a wide variety of expressions: flirty to fierce, passion to terror. If she's costuming, I know the costumes will be top-notch. When we shoot, it's always a bit magical.

Allegra is one of the most talented and multi-talented artists in North Carolina.  She is a highly skilled costuming expert, makeup expert, model and photoshop artist.  Her multifaceted skill multiplies her effectiveness.  Never mind her awesome personality and seemingly always positive attitude!  I would work with her on collaborating any day and if I could every day.  Highly recommended!

...an enchanting muse for artists... I have a strong feeling Frank [Frazetta] would have loved to have her as a model. she is quickly becoming the select choice of many photographers because of her stunning beauty and her bubbly personality that is humble enough to work with the artist to create their vision and that's just what a good muse does.  They inspire, they ignite passion and flame for creation....She's intelligent, witty, charming and loving and is not stuck on herself, but easily approachable and loves most everyone and most everyone loves her.  As artists and photographers scramble to get a chance to work with her, she tries hard to accommodate their needs to create and make their visions come to life.  She is also a great creator herself dreaming up fantastical costumes to wear during various conventions and she has smile that lights up a room of people.  It's no wonder so many conventions scramble to ask her to be a guest...She is a great model to work with and a very giving and kind person.  If you are an artist or photographer or a person running a booth at a convention and need assistance or want a start at their booth, she is the girl to hire.
