Miss Lavender Button

_Hi,

_{I'm Miss Lavender Button.}

_{I am an old soul but do have a fresh outlook on life and im someone who can bring new ideas to shoots.}

_{I love and am so fascinated by the 1920s, 1930s, 1940s and certainly the 1950s.}

_{I am a dancer. I do Lindy Hop, Charleston, Majorettes and am learning more Burlesque.}

_{I am simply mad over vintage literature.} 

_{I'm currently focusing on working for paid assignments but I am likely to currently accept part pay if one of the following styles}

• _Burlesque 

• _{Bond girl style} 

• _{Partnered dance shoot}

• _{Vintage swimwear}

• _{All day shoots (with some exceptions please ask)}

_{I can travel anywhere as long as my expenses are covered. I'm happy to find somewhere to stay locally too.}

_{I have no tattoos, but am happy to do high quality transfers if wanted.}

 _{I don't have hair but I do wear wigs. I have alopecia and whilst it's growing back and its very short. This does not limit my ability to style hair.}

_{I do not under any circumstances shoot nude.} 

_{Random facts about me}

• _{I took my British sign language exam aged 11 in London} 

• _{Massive history nerd and love DC and Marvel. (This obviously means that I'm also a cosplayer because why wouldn't I be)}

• _{My favourite book is Wuthering Heights but my favourite movie is drop dead Fred.}

• _{I love any 50s style and you'll often find me listening to 1940s to 1960s music.. or a podcast. At the moment I'm crazy about "let's talk about myths baby"}

• _{I have 3 kids and they're central to my entire life, I'm absolutely blessed to have them and so because of them have kept a very young and bubbly attitude myself. I **love** my little pony on repeat obviously 🙄} 

• _{My favourite colour is red. Deep red.}

• _{Favourite snack is olives.}

• _{Favourite food is carbonara.}

• _{Lastly of course tea is a must}

• _{I have autism which often people don't realise! It's a super power. I'm super creative and very particular about the right shot.}

_{About my wardrobe}

_{It's excessive. I've been told it's too much. But that's all the better for you.}

_{I have lots of clothes ranging from}

• _{1940s dresses / trousers /skirts / shapewear}

• _{1950s dresses / trousers / skirts / shapewear}

• _{1960s dresses.}

• _{Modern day outfits.}

• _Dungarees.

• _{Lots of shoes.}

• _{Lots of bags.}

• _{Lots of hair accessories.}

_{Most of my clothes are vivien of holloway if you'd like to take a look online you'll see how specialised her styles can be.}

I am happy to wear brought clothes but I will not wear anything excessive or revealing. I do not do nude, I will not wear lingerie or bikinis that might as well be non existent.

_{Wigs = any colours or lengths wanted please let me know in advance as wigs can be very expensive and I'd need time to buy them. I already do have a good selection please ask to view.}

_{Please note that I do not shoot nude or fetish work. I am not comfortable with these so please do not ask me to. I will absolutely never be tied up and I will take offence if asked to gag. I repeat please do not ask.}

_{How can I help}

_{I can help with ideas and the development of ideas. My speciality is vintage fashion and portraiture. However I am a cosplayer too.}

• _{I can help new photographers gain confidence and skills}

• _{I can help more advanced photographers by gaining more content or for their portfolio.}

• _{I can help with storyboarding} 

• _{im also great at carrying things *i carried a watermelon*}

• _{I always give references, you need these as much as it helps other models trust in photographers. With this in mind I always read references and will only work with you if I can fully trust you or your work.}

_{Who have I worked with}

• _{College students} 

• _{Some small businesses.}

• _{Charity shoots for local charities.}

_{Part pay: Spreading the cost photographs & giftcards}

_{I am not currently paying for any shoots, I have a lot of things at home that need paying for with my children and health and i am a part home educator. Additionally I am saving to do home repairs and decorating of different area's. Please understand this. Additionally I am not currently accepting TFP unless something very different  OR you are a vintage model looking to collaborate.  I only work for giftcards to support my modelling I.e. primark giftcards etc.}

_{My rates:  please ask.}

_{Generally speaking my rates are £35 an hour however lingerie is higher and I can offer discounts to certain hours worked.}

_{These will need to be paid in the form of giftcards please,  my children benefit from the ability to use these to buy things and quite enjoy it. Also some I use for buying more modelling equipment and clothes. Some simply are just to enjoy some time away mentally for example; audible is my holiday.  I'm happy to accept cash if preferred or bank transfer/ PayPal.}

_{Giftcards must be ecards sent directly from company to my email: Misslavenderbutton@hotmail.com}

_{Giftcard options:}

_{Lush / sainsbury's / entertainer / argos / Vivien of Holloway / boux avenue / Netflix / Spotify  / what Katie did / playful promises / Disney plus / primark / tonies uk / smyths toys / tesco / amazon / b&m / whsmiths / boots / costa / hobbycraft / waterstones / audible / amazon.} 

_{I also ask for travel costs, rates may change if long distance due to needing accommodation.} 

For bookings over 350 travel is free. 

Under 350 travel is a single ticket plus 5 per hour if I'm travelling over 2 hours. 

Under £100 travel needs to be paid in full. 

Distance shoots require a 3 hour minimum booking and will incur a £5 per hour cost if I'm travelling beyond 2 hours. 

• Example 1 : 2 hour journey, total pay for shoot 120, travel = single ticket price.

• Example 2 : 3 hour journey, total pay for shoot 120 travel = single ticket price + 5

• Example 3 : 4 hour journey, total shoot pay 70, travel = return ticket + 10 

Location MUST be agreed prior to shoot. I will not be planning it when I get there and I do not do " free walking time " to decide on if you want to shoot one side of the town or the other. Please plan ahead. 

_{Any unpaid work will be followed up on, Please note I work only a minimum of 2 hours per shoot, I prefer to be paid before the shoot due to past issues.}

_{I unfortunately have had to resort to a deposit system. I've lost too much by not and as much as I'd rather not have to, it simply is what it is.  Deposit requirement is between 30% and 60% depending on the shoot fees. By booking with me you agree to this.}

_{1 month notice = return of 100% deposit.} 

_{3 weeks notice = return of 70% deposit} 

_{2 weeks notice = return of 40% deposit.} 

_{1 weeks notice = return of  10%} 

_{Under 1 week = no deposit return.}

_{please understand often I've brought props, clothes or tickets sometimes even a hotel room of which I don't get refunded.}
