Red Celt

About Red Celt

Thank you for taking the time to stop by my portfolio!

I am a pale, freckly English model with long red hair and blue eyes.

In essence, I am a wild child who grew up in the country climbing trees and making dens! All my friends call me Celt! ...and yes I can still climb trees, so if you want me to just ask!

Whilst I do shoot a range of styles, I specialise in art nude as I find it very rewarding, and have been told on several occasions that my pre-Raphaelite look lends itself to this genre.

I am agency represented, but also work freelance.

I have done over 100 shoots, across several continents (Australia, USA, Europe...), and in a range of genres from beautiful art nudes in the snow to high fashion for known designers. I love working outdoors and interacting with my surroundings, and have worked in the snow, wind and rain to the sticky deserts in Nevada, so I am always up for a challenge in the name of Art, and most certainly not a summer only model!

I am proud to say that I have no enhancements, piercings, markings or tattoos...and yes I do have pubic hair :-) !

I am currently living in the South West of England, however often travel nationally and internationally (visiting the USA at least once a year), so please do not let my location stop us from getting creative!

So, If you want to work with me, wherever you are in the world, just drop me a line, and I will try my up most to make it happen.

LOCATION & AVAILABILITY

I am availiable to work throughout the UK on both weekdays and weekends, and with a bit more notice internationally!

As a rough guide, by train I can get to;

Bristol - 2Hrs
Cardiff - 3Hrs20
London - 3Hrs30
Birmingham - 3Hrs30
Worcester - 3Hrs30
Southampton - 4Hrs20
Manchester - 5Hrs30
Liverpool - 5Hrs30
Leeds - 5Hrs40
Edinburgh/Glasgow - 8Hrs


In the case of London, I often take the night train up, this allows me to be in London by 7am leaving an entire day free for shooting!

Whilst depending on your distance, travel contributions will vary, I do get 1/3rd off all train fairs, and for the moment free local buses. Also if you know another photographer in the area and arrange a shoot the same day, the costs will be split between both of you!

So please don't let my location stop us from working together


On Location

I currently live in Plymouth (UK), and am surrounded by fabulous outdoor locations to shoot art nudes, including beaches, moors, forests and of course Tin Mines. I would also be delighted to travel to a location of your choice. I am very comfortable working outdoors, and love the opportunity to interact with my surroundings!


Studio

If you happen to be in Plymouth, I am also delighted to shoot in my apartment, which is equipped with various 3m wide paper and fabric backgrounds (Green, Grey, White and Black) and Studio lights with all the relevant extras (brollies, soft boxes etc) - so please get in touch for more details. Needless to say, I am also happy to travel to your Studio!


THE SHOOT

What to Expect....

I realise many photographers have experienced problems with web-models in the past, but please be assured, I treat all freelance bookings with the same professionalism as my agency assignments

So, what you should expect from me is a punctual, well prepared (bringing any props/apparel previously discussed/outlined by the photographer), Rested (no baggy eyes from late nights), Sober and most definitely not intoxicated (I do not take drugs! Nor do I smoke)

Prior to any art nude or lingerie shoots, I always ensure that I wear loose clothing, so that you do not spend half the shoot waiting to get rid of those annoying lines.

Also, when hair styling occurs, I will ensure I do not wash my hair the day before the shoot, as I appreciate this makes it far harder to style!

What I Expect....

In tern, I expect all photographers to treat me with respect! That is it :-)

I do encourage discussions prior to the shoot about themes/ideas, so as I can input on the creative process, and we can obtain the best results in the shoot, however this is not essential!

I do not expect images from paid shoots, however any images provided by a photographer are always gratefully received and I ensure credit is given.


Getting Dirty...

* Yes I am happy to work outdoors in Mud, snow etc
* Yes I don't mind my body being Painted
* Yes I will work under water (sounds extremely fun)...
* Yes you can back brush my hair and put random bits in it if you desire, or spray it in crazy colours (providing it washes out)...

However, please let us agree this in advance of shooting, as I will not be able to do this if I have another shoot later in the day, as it would be unfair and unprofessional of me to turn up to the next photographer in a total state.


OTHER BITS AND BOBS

I have NO Tattoos, NO Piercings and No Scars

I do have Pale Skin and Lots of Freckles especially in the summer months when they all like to pop up :-) so you've been warned!

BOOKINGS

- Rates for shoots are dependent on Travel distance, nature of shoot etc, however they are industry standard, so please enquire for details.

- Minimum Booking Time: 2hrs

- Cancellations - I expect 50% of the agreed shoot fee if a shoot is cancelled by the photographer...If the shoot is cancelled less than 12 hours before, I expect 100%.

- For bookings outside the UK deposits are required.

- I will work on a test basis with exceptional photographers if its for publication/tear project

- No open leg work accepted (unless I have clothes on obviously), plenty of models out there who are very attractive and interested in this - so please contact them and don't waste mine/your time and give them the extra work instead!

- Videos I do not permit videos to be taken during ANY nude shoot! Video footage will not be tolerated in any clothed shoot either, unless previously discussed (such as we are making a music video or TV commercial).

OK, that is all the nasties over with :-)

REFERENCES


A few random references...

'Celt is a fantastic model. She brings her own unique style to the shoot, her looks, the shock of hair and wonderful looks are a photographers dream. Working with this canvas one can only be inspired. Celt is also extremely creative in her approach...coming up with some of the most original poses I have come across, as can be seen by the pictures. She is a joy to work with, intelligent, a good conversationalist and can also tune a double bass' Gregory Brown (London)

'A model with this much talent and professionalism doesn't come by very often. I hope we can do it again sometime' Greg Randles (Las Vegas)

'On rare occasion a model stands out, not because of hype or a false flashy style but because of the emotion and depth she creates in an image. Celt is a brilliant ray of light in a many times mundane business' Jack Cutler

'One of the most wonderful models to work with. Thank you' Michael

'Thank you for being our model! You were great - we love your look and you have such an awesome walk' Designer Alice We (Feral Childe) Brooklyn Best Fashion Show


'Red Celt is very professional and an absolute joy to work with!' David Karmeli OMP 173624
