My name's Emilia, I am a creative and artistic soul in love with music and all kinds of culture. Modelling is one of my expressive outlets. I am daring, open minded and willing to try new ideas and aesthetics. I would love to collaborate with photographers, videographers, designers, make up artists and hair stylists so please do get in touch! Let's make ART!

I have been learning burlesque and enjoy the vintage pinup look that goes with it - currupted innocence, the tease and self-aware sensuality. I adore Gil Elvgren poised retro looks, seamed tights, corsets and victory rolls. I am pretty well versed in feathered/silk fans and can move naturally with the music. I can free pose but also take direction well. I want to be involved in the creative process but will also be excited to be inspired by what's in your head!

I am enchanted by all things fantasy, eerie and strange; dark beauty, surreal and dreamy. As a great movie buff I also enjoy cinematic, film noir or period costume stylised shoots. I would like to do more conceptual, bodypaint or fashion/editorial/high end beauty shoots as well as cinemagraphs/video work.

I enjoy raw, striking portraiture, storytelling, pictures that are different, quirky and emotive - communicate what lies within and stay with the viewer for a long while. I am into big, bold and beautiful - the dramatic, theatrical and unusual concepts. Count me in!

I have an all natural, curvy hourglass figure, with ample breasts and hips which may not always be in fashion but that's me and I embrace it. I have one tattoo - rabbit and the moon on my upper back.

Atmosphere during shoots is vital for me - I want to make art but above all, to have fun - if you're making me feel uncomfortable or stressed in any way I will let you know and/or leave. It's really special when two people connect creatively and indulge in artful escapism together - but let's make it light and enjoyable. I give my all to every shoot I get involved in, from making a mood board to running around the forest barefoot and jumping up in the air until we get the shot we are both ecstatic with. And I would hope for the same amount of enthusiasm and dedication in return.

I will happily shoot with other female models, as long as it's with the purpose of portraying a sensual/playful/complex connection between two people, not cheap titillation.

If we're shooting TFP please commit to deliver at least 5 edited pictures and do so within four weeks. I had to add this caption after working hard for a photographer or two and ending up with no edits at all.

Please note I work Monday to Friday 9-5 do can only shoot from 6ish onwards on weekdays - otherwise it's weekends.

I work up till implied/sheer lingerie/tasteful art nude for the right concept. I would also appreciate my travel costs if possible - I always keep them to minimum. I will work on limited TFP projects if I feel we can create something wonderful together, benefit each other's portfolios and have heaps of fun in the process. Otherwise my rate is £20.00 per hour - I am happy to work with both experienced and new/amateur photographers - do get in touch and let's swap ideas/get creative!
