Hi! Please call me J-Jo, or Jo, or JJ, or whatever you like as long as I'm pretty certain you are referring to me! I'll respond to most anything. I'm new not just to MM but also to modeling and came here more to learn than to get a career. I am a beginner at modeling after having done some casually for friends or as a hobby since I am an avid cosplayer and worked with a lot of photographers through that. I am curious about the modelling industry and want to learn more. I figured this site I could talk with others and possibly gain experience so signed up.

I am not looking quite so much into getting paid shoots, no plans of quitting the day job, so much as just learning. I want to learn about the industry (and indeed just signing up I'm learning new terms like what editorial and fit modeling are) about posing and the act of modeling itself, and if I'm lucky more about photography as well since I love just as much being assistant to my photographer friends as being their model. I find every part of the photography process amazing and wonderful and love to be a part whatever part that it. It is to me an amazing art form and to feel like even in a small part I helped make that art happen fills me with satisfaction.

With that in mind I would really love to be a part of more artistic and weird shoots. I especially have a current interest in underwater shoots and would love to participate in one. I do not do nude photography but past that am up for most anything. With my features I can be pretty androgynous and love the idea of breaking down gender so definitely up for something like that as well as shooting me as a girl.

And yes, most of that was just cut and paste from my bio but I figured if I said it right then why not use the same words now. I am impressed and happy to have found this place and in the day I took to get used to the site before posting this already been warmly received and encouraged! I even already got a scam job offer! It's all happening so fast! Jokes aside I really am happy to have joined and hope I can learn a lot here about something which I'm quite interested in.
