General Information
Thank you for checking out my OMP site and for your interest in me. Due to my busy schedule, I don't do much of the TFP work unless I need to update my portfolio. Paid assignemnts will be given the main priority. Please note, that I don't do any type of nude or adult photos or videos. Please respect that and don't send me any such inquiries. Thank you for your understanding and your respect. IMPORTANT: Please provide the following information when contacting me for a booking request: 1. Full Name 2. Date and time of the shoot, as well as the duration of the shoot. 3. Exact Location 4. What to bring - outfits, make up, and so on. 5. Whether the hairdresser and the make up artist is provided. 6. Compensation. 7. What the prints/videos and any other work will be used for. 8. I also reserve the right to bring an escort with me to the shoot with the new photographers (just for my own personal safety, they will NOT be interfering). Thank you for your understanding and for your respect! On another note, here is a bit about me: I love traveling and exploring new places and cultures. I am an extremely worldly person and have been to and lived in many different countries and cities all around the world. I know the rules of etiquette very well, I've had the pleasure of encountering people of many different cultures, backgrounds and religions and have equal respect for all. I am open to traveling anywhere that is required (nationally and worldwide, only if the travel and stay are paid for, unless I am already at a certain place).
