NOTE : Model Mayhem is now COMPLETELY blocked in the UAE so my access to it is very limited. I would prefer emails at [email protected] if you have a shoot proposal. If you are a traveling model get in touch via instagram ( http://www.instagram.com/altamashurooj ) If you just wanna drop me a line then MM is fine :)
