Because sometimes 2, is better than 1.

Traveling friends that share a love for the same artistry.

Our Story

valerie and mariaposa have been friends for years as they have created in the same realm with passion.

for the first time this summer… touring together.

available for model photography duo creations.

How it will work

❋ Intentional Structure

We will share the same tour dates, share transportation, and accommodations.

With that being said, we will be booking solo shoots as well! Planning on our end diligently when extra transportation is needed.

❋ Collaborative Energy

Connection is a core part of the process. Though, for solo bookings— we will not be attending each others photoshoots. Unless requested in advance.

❋ Expert Facilitation

We are freelance artists being assisted by experienced guides at Create Now Company to ensure no oversights on these long tours. This will also help enable last minute bookings when we are on the road and unable to get back to our messages.

❋ A Supportive Space

Our photoshoots prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process. Thats why we created this webpage for our travels to insure you are in the know on all of our booking + in shoot policies, & rates!

    In Shoot Policies:

  • Implied Topless / True Implied Nude

    We do enjoy duo implied topless and true implied nude work when it is created with care, quality, and a clear artistic direction.

    By booking this genre with me, you are agreeing to the following posting guidelines:
    •⁠ Images must remain truly implied and within the artistic direction agreed upon for the shoot.
    •⁠ ⁠We are comfortable with true implied being posted (where no censorship is needed), as long as the image remains tasteful, high-quality, and aligned with the agreed concept.
    •⁠ ⁠Images should be credited properly when shared publicly.
    •⁠ ⁠Valerie’s fine art Instagram is @stellarinspektor, which she is currently excited to be growing. Maria is happy to have her normal page tagged, @mariaposaaa__
    •⁠ ⁠We reserve the right to ask that an image not be posted publicly if it does not reflect the agreed artistic direction or comfort level of the shoot.

    For the Select Artists I Shoot Art Nude With

    We are only open to considering fine art nude work with select photographers whose portfolio is truly centered around fine art and whose work feels aligned with my artistic direction.

    For those rare bookings, my boundaries around usage are very intentional:
    •⁠ ⁠Fine art nude work is not an open booking category.
    •⁠ ⁠We only consider this work when there is clear artistic alignment and trust.
    •⁠ ⁠We are not open to public posting of fully nude/fine art nude images unless the content is shared behind a paywall or in another private/controlled setting we have agreed to in advance.
    •⁠ ⁠Again, ⁠we are comfortable with true implied being posted (where no censorship is needed), as long as the image remains tasteful, high-quality, and aligned with the agreed concept.
    •⁠ ⁠Any booking in this genre means you agree to respect these posting and usage guidelines.

    Thank you for respecting this extra layer of comfort and clarity around work that is personal, intentional, and artistically important to us.

  • REVIEWS of working experience with us

    "Maria is a very talented model who is incredibly personable and easy to work with. I did a shoot with her recently and she arrived with plenty of wardrobe options and was ready to go right away. Maria is a natural beauty with a very engaging personality and a willingness to try a variety of poses. I would highly recommend her to any photographer, and I hope I will have many more opportunities to work with her."

    "I had a wonderful shoot with Val. A wonderful dancer, outstanding poses and just plain fun to create with. Additionally, she was so helpful and creative with a couple of ideas I had, but needed assistance on caring them through. I certainly hope I will have another opportunity to create with her in the future."

    "Valerie is a fun person to work with. She's easy-going, full of positive energy, and highly professional. She values her time and yours and makes sure everything business-wise is covered. Once that's out of the way, the fun begins and she brings out a fantastic, creative vibe that is fantastic to be a part of. Your camera will thank you for working with her. 😊"
