Experience:
I have over 8 years experience of working with models; who can all supply positive references, please also see me on Net-model (16 references) and Purpleport.
Check at the bottom of my portfolio for the long list of some other models I have worked with.

** ARE YOU A NEWBIE MODELS? **
If you want to work with me to create images for your portfolio, my rates are negotiable, make me an offer.
But if I think you look like you have potential I may do TFCD. :-).
_____________________

I have a wide range of Fetish, PVC, lingerie and other types of sexy clothing for models between size 8 and 14. (Most items suited to 'curvy' Size 10+).
Shoes size 3 - 6.
BUT as you can see from the few examples on my portfolio, I do shoot other styles besides 'Alternative'.
I offer a wide range of various STYLES/GENRE TO SUIT MODELS' REQUIREMENTS.

** AVAILABILITY **

A few SATURDAYS and occasional Sundays available.
WEEKDAY Daytimes and Evenings please ask.

== IMPORTANT ==
** Any models who contact me need to be as completely reliable and dedicated as I am.
I have had a lot of 'NO SHOW' TIME WASTING models during my years of shooting live subjects.
So if you are interested in working with me please ensure that you will be able to attend any meetings or shoots that we arrange. **

ANY MODELS WHO DON'T ATTEND A BOOKED MEETING OR SHOOT WILL BE GIVEN A 'NEGATIVE' REVIEW ON THEIR PROFILE PAGE.

All models with whom I work are treated professionally and with friendliness and courtesy.
I expect to be treated similarly. I try to ensure that models feel as comfortable, at ease and as safe as possible at all times.

CHAPERONES
I will allow chaperones present on a shoot, but they will need to be well-behaved and not be a disruptive influence.
Chaperones can sometimes make a model feel self-conscious therefore inhibiting their performance, so please assure me that your chaperone will not interfere with the flow of the shoot by distracting either of us.

I can understand how some models may have security issues, but I also have to be cautious.
It may be preferable that someone brings you, then after being satisfied that everything is above board; they leave and pick you up later.
I don't mind if you wish to text/phone someone to let them know that you're safe and well during the natural breaks in shooting.
===================

TFCD? and Time for CLOTHING? - I will do TFCD, etc. if I think we have the potential to produce great images and give us something to enhance our portfolios.
If we really work well together, I have a surplus of fabulously sexy clothing and lots of superb shoes to give away FREE as well as images on a CD, in return for Time for Shoots.
 
Comments:
I always encourage models to be chaperoned to meetings & shoots, or at least to arrange meetings to suit them.
Developing mutual trust and a good friendly relationship is vitally important.
It is likely my Fiancee will be present at meetings and shoots too.

I have worked at studios in Leeds, Bradford and Keighley, but much rather work either at my home studio, at the model's home or at any other suitable locations.
Contact me here or try mailing me at - des4fun at aol dot com , and let's chat about working together on some fab photos. :-)


Ideas for shoots have been very broad & 'flexible', I 'tailor' them to suit any model's limitations and experience.
The genre I focus on mostly is 'Alternative' or 'Sub/Dom' and there are many variations.
It can involve a wide range of things - Dressing Up: PVC, Leather, Latex, Gothic, Lingerie, Boots, Stiletto Heels, etc. Roleplay: Damsel in Distress, Captive Heroines, etc.
Bondage has been used in many of my shoots, but always with the full consent of the models and I always make sure the models are relaxed, comfortable and having fun.
The safety, comfort & well-being of the model is foremost.... A happy model, is a good model.

Ultimately, I would like to be able to create good working relationships with a few local, regular, reliable, suitable models, anyone who wants to Collaborate to create images for websites similar to the likes of RestrainedElegance, BondageCafe, BondageBob, EveEllis, JasmineSinclair, DitaVonTeese, Vivianbound, etc.

** I Had a bondage/damsel-in-distress shoot with Des a little while ago. The bondage was competent (nice and secure, the way I like it...) and the shoot was lots of fun.
Des is a friendly, courteous guy and I'd be happy to work with him again and to recommend him to others.

First I and my chaperone met up with Des, and spoke about things we were going to do the following day, also to get to know eachother. On the 1st sep 2012 I had the shoot with Des. I had an absolutelly amazing time, and learn so many things reguarding modelling, that are continuing to help me. He is such a great host offering us drinks and amazing service. Couldnt have felt any more comfortable and happy. The photos were amazing, and I would definitelly recommend him, as he has bizarre ideas, which I also tried such as bondage. Never thought Id tried it, But I absolutelly loved it!!! Thank you so much Des. Hopefully there are more shoots coming!!
