One of the mods received an email, that he unfortunately couldn't deal with at the time of receiving it, so he passed it to me.

We were asked by a model if anyone has a fairly large snake, that is also friendly that could be used in a photoshoot.

I shall copy parts of the email she sent me:

Basically I am a mature model who is having a photo shoot this coming Monday in Portslade,Brighton with the most revered photogrpaher and it was my idea (as this is my 2nd shoot with him)to do a shoot with a snake-something which neither he or I have done previously.

My son owns a 3 year old corn-which is obviously safe to handle-but a little on the small side for what I wanted-he would appear merely as a necklace perhaps-so I began my hunt for someone kind enough to loan their larger snake-corn or other safe breed for the best achievable shot. The more vivid the colours the better(Although the photographer said a black snake would be fab)-but size is important as I wish to drape it around my neck covering my modesty.

It will be for a tasteful glam shot. John Farrar is the photographer-by all means google him-you will see how lovely his work is.

If yourself or anyone can help I would be so grateful and if this coming Monday is not viable then I can arrange another shoot with John that would suit all.


Obviously I couldn't post here without her permission, so asked for permission before I stuck it on here, and also if it had to be a cornsnake, or would anysnake do, here's her response:

You absolutely have my permission to go ahead with this-I really appreciate all that you are doing.

No-it doesn't have to be a corn snake at all-any safe snake will be fine.Black would be fab!

All that the photographer and I ask is that the owner allow us to have the snake in the studio with us for approximately an hour no more and that the owner perhaps browse the shops of Portslade whilst this happens. I can assure utmost care of the snake whilst in the owners absence.

If the owner would like to see the model(myself)and the photogrphers work-please direct them to my URL www.modelmayhem.com/EnglishAngel

I will be happy to give the owner the best of the photographs produced from the shoot. As you can see-the photographer is a professional,revered by many and has published lots of his work winning lots of competions for his work.

Hoping you will find someone who wants to showcase their snake in this way.

My next shoot with this photographer is this Monday and ideally would be fab if the snake shoot could take place between midday and 5pm.

Hoping all this info helps. If it turns out it's too short notice to find someone now-then a future shoot WILL happen-so my request can remain on your forum.



Like it says, it may be a bit late notice now, but like she said, a future shoot WILL happen.
Although as it stands, I would say that anyone who may offer to help would be over 18 please.

Any takers, then reply to topic.

I have to say, for an older bird she isn't half bad!

I was thinking that myself, but her profile puts her at younger than my missus anyway.
