Model
Chris

I moved to Amsterdam in March 2025. In September of that year, I began working as a model for art classes. What started as a paid hobby has turned into my full-time job.

Modelling as a meditative act

I find modelling very relaxing. Whether I am posing fully-dressed (for a portrait class) or nude, modelling provides me with an opportunity to be fully present in the moment. On this website, I want to shine a spotlight on all the venues where I have modelled (so far). By the way, I occasionally pose for a photographer or an artist on an unpaid, 1-1 basis. This website catalogues only the places and people for which I was paid to model.
