About Me



Hi, thanks for reviewing my photography.  If you're looking for a published professional photographer that's makes every shoot fun -- someone with an expertise in photography and lighting … someone whose excels at Photoshop retouching to make you always look your absolute best (without looking plastic) -- and someone with decades of industry contacts and modeling advice -- let's shoot together.

"Sexy ... and tasteful!"

I have over 25 years of experience working at advertising agencies, Internet companies and as a photographer ... so I know the modeling industry inside and out.  My specialty is creative "styles" of photography, from commercial to experimental, soft glamour to hard rock, Vanity Fair to Vogue, Maxim to Playboy.  I love it when models show me a magazine ad and challenges me to duplicate the "look." 

I am a "Photoshop Ninja"  This means that I have the retouching skills of a Photoshop Wizard ... and you will start seeing your pictures the day after your shoot.  No waiting weeks to see your edited images ... you start seeing beautifully edited pictures THE NEXT DAY!

My rates are very reasonable, and I'm open to discuss discounts for serious models that have an interesting look … or for an opportunity to shoot an interesting creative idea.

Hey, did you get my message?
I’m a full time international model with 10+ years experience coming to your area October 2nd - 5th or 6th before heading to Dallas. I’d love to know if you would like to work with me while I am here or if you know anyone who might. This may be the only chance to shoot me in your area. Do you have recommendations on how else to get more work or who to reach out to?
I have more details in my profile but here is a bit ABOUT me; As a full time model, I am highly committed, passionate, reliable, open to working with artists of any level of experience & am very experienced in a wide variety of expressive poses. I’ve worked throughout AUS, NZ, UK, EU, Hawaii, India, Singapore, Malaysia & Philippines with plans to travel through other parts of the world. My many years of experience in the industry with a range of creatives from around the world have earned me features in multiple magazines, art galleries & exhibitions in a variety of countries. I’m open to modelling with other male or female models (locals or traveling) in the studio as well as on location in various conditions & throughout a broad range of styles from portraits, fashion, pinup, editorial, beauty, lifestyle, swimwear, lingerie, sheer, topless, boudoir, implied, through to art nude. I can do glamour as well as suggestive & slight fetish/erotica but I don’t do open leg or porn. My extra talents; I’m a musician, I know how to free dive which is good for underwater shots, can horse ride, go on long hikes & also can crack a stock whip, I practice yoga, & have done basic pole & aerial hoop/silks.
INSTA; @layal.official (non nudes) @aim.model (nude) @aim.backup.model1 (back up nude)
My RATES; for up to art nude $150 per hour for 2hrs or more or $550 for 4hrs or $1000 a day. This covers costs including my meals/drinks, public transportation, outfits I can bring, my own make up & other things to help me be the best I can for you. Surcharges; for 1hr only, light fetish & extra shooters. I do understand people have budgets so I can offer pay off methods where you pay the rate over an agreed time. If Instagram or WhatsApp or even email is better than discussing here, please send me your contact details.
Thank you in advance for respecting me. Hope to hear from you soon, keen to see what we can do together, all the best & kindest regards.
