Model~Muse for Fine Art Photography

Engage in the creative process by modeling for a photoshoot session to create gallery-quality works of fine art.
* Lady A
I create long-term, mixed-media fine art inspired by Dada, Punk, Existentialism, and Postmodernism. Photography is an early step in a multi-year process involving digital and physical transformation of the images into layered visual artworks.

Style & Output
Artistic Output: Last vs. First
* Agatha (left) * Samantha (right)
I use a range of cameras (film, digital, instant) + my edits are what people call "experimental" aka I learned how to work film only to support my art—don’t expect traditional glossy fashion portraits.
Studio Environment
Artistic Output: Last vs. First
* Rachie Tae
- Shoots at the Factory take place when the space space is closed to the public, calm and controlled.
- Quiet on set is maintained when the shoot is active.
- You may bring two guests to the shoot as chaperone, style or support.
- You and your guests have access private changing, break areas, and complimentary wine, water, coffee & tea.
- Your genuine personality is my primary subject matter and the typical crew of stylists & photography assistants is not required so I typically shoot 1:1. One week before the shoot I'll check in to let you know if I plan to include any creative collaborators on set and, if only planning a 1:1 shoot, I'll ask if you would like me to include the presence of a female assistant on set.
Trust & Safety
* Jazzy Belle
- Wardrobe is used to create visual narratives that illustrate the project's underlying art theory, not static articles of fashion, so consistent & detail-oriented wardrobe adjustments are typical. No matter if shooting 1:1 or with a female assistant on set, you’ll always be asked for permission before any physical adjustments to wardrobe or props. Your comfort is prioritized at every stage; how adjustments are made is 100% your decision.
- Most projects involve some level of nudity ranging from implied to full, but never explicit and never published outside of the fine art framework. The same as wardrobe, nudity may be used to help communicate the visual narrative but the primary reason is actually quite mundane: when images are worked through my artistically rigorous & extended edit process, colors & shapes that are unimportant to the visual narrative, such as an undergarment, for example, become more concentrated in color & distinct in shape over time and will distract or obstruct the visual narrative. On the other hand, small details visible in a nude photograph, such as a belly button, lose defining characteristics through the process, and blend unnoticed into the final composition.
- I support open communication, breaks, and boundaries. You can pause or stop a shoot at any time. I know the creep is real out there and I assure you this will be a safe shoot. As guarantee, I am happy to show you pics of my 5 kiddos aged 8-28, three of whom are girls. I want to live in a body positive world that is safe for my girls and I want that world for you too.
Usage & Edits
* Agatha
I retain full rights to use and transform the images in my art with credit given to you as the model (if desired). In return, you’ll receive full rights to use and transform initial, transitional & final edited versions that meet my artistic standards, with credit given to myself as the artist for commercial use and with credit given to myself as the artist at your discretion for non-commercial use.

"I think it's rad that my art sells but I don't make art to sell art. My life has been dense & intense, making art is just how I deal. If I add up the cost of materials, making art is still cheaper than therapy and way less hassle than organized religion; even if I never sold a single work of art, figure I'm still coming out ahead."
