At 17 (1993) I was signed to a modelling agency in London (Model 2000) where I had catwalk training at the Pineapple dance studios, there I did a few charity fashion shows, went to castings and fittings and attended a few photo shoots. I stayed with the agency only a few months as I went traveling then into full time employment on my return. I have always loved modelling and been involved in a few fashion shows whenever the opportunity has arisen. I'm quite flexible and have a passion for dance. I'm involved in theatre and love acting/performing/dancing on stage. I have modelled for a couple of editorial pieces in Good Housekeeping magazine, Ms. London Magazine and chat magazine. I have modelled for various photographers building their portfolios and for their university assignments. I currently model for a bronze sculptor Philip Wakeham. I have to sit or stand for sometimes 15 hours (5-6 hours at a time) while he sculpts me from life for figure sculptures. I'm a very passionate photographer which is my profession. I love people and the connection made between photographer and model or photographer and family depending on my brief. With my own modelling experience I'm able to direct models and make them feel comfortable by demonstrating exactly what I'd like them to do. Photographers have often said that they like working with me as I'm very patient, never complain and have lots of energy and I'm driven to create the perfect image whichever side of the camera I'm on.
