I LOVE modeling! I BREATHE it! DREAM about it (day and night). And sometimes I EAT it. Yeah, I said it... Sometimes I EAT modeling. Oxymoron? Sure...

My name is Monique. You can call me Mo, Mona, Eeny, Betch (with an E, not an I), whatever... But just know that I am very serious about modeling. I'm not a flake and I work hard for my photographers. I am definitely a goof at times and love to laugh and joke with people... but I model out of passion. Not money or need. I have a ton of energy. I think I get it from my son. Or my coffee... Either way, it works.

Since you all have YOUR list - Here's MY list of don'ts:

1. Don't show up naked. Please. The last time that happened, he got arrested and it was aired on To Catch a Predator. (That's a lie, btw... but seriously, don't show up naked)
2. Don't ask me to get naked.... You'll see a much more comfortable ME with the clothes on.
3. Don't contact me if you are notorious for ditching when it comes time to produce the pictures, OR it takes you months... literally MONTHS to edit them. I can only be patient for about 3 months. Maybe 3 months and 4 days. (Unless prior arrangements have been made)
4. Don't be a flake. You don't want flaky models. I don't want a flaky photographer. I'm more than understanding as long as you communicate with me! I'm not your wife (and definitely not your husband) so I don't need reasons - just common courtesy so I can make other plans. wink
5. Don't be scared to ask for ideas, give ideas, ask for TF, ask me to travel, or contact me in general. I'm not conceited, close-minded, bashful, or snobby. I'm here to have fun, do what I love, meet people, and gain experience.
6. I can't think of any more don'ts. That's good, right?

Geez, if you made it through this much of my babbling... you should be given an award. Or at least a hug and a strong drink. wink
