Great looking mug shot of the two of you.
At Least you aren't follically challenged like some of us. 
Thanks for posting!

As requested, here I am. The [edit: second] was a cell phone picture at work a while back and the [edit: first] was from my modeling days which are, alas, past. They sure as hell were fun, though.
You don't really need the pictures, though. Just look for the shortest person you can find with lady parts.

Very nice pic, Anadactyl. It's great to meet you. If you don't mind me asking, what made you decide to give up modeling?

Thank you, Bobfly. Great to meet you, too. Is your mug shot in here somewhere? I couldn't find you listed up front.
I loved modeling and I did well with it for several years. It was almost entirely "alternative" i.e. for art rather than, say, advertising and mostly... different... stuff. Unfortunately it is damn near impossible to make any money from that kind of modeling and it takes a lot of time and effort. I've been in management since I was 20 and it my time is usually in short supply. I was in a car accident in '08 and that put the final stop to it. It's hard to stay in shape when your butt is stuck to the couch for a year and a half.
I'm getting back up to snuff, slowly but surely - I found hang gliding while looking for something I was able to do without killing myself. While HG seems like the last thing someone would choose to get back in the game, considering I was a rock climber and loved hiking and back-packing and horseback riding... hang gliding seemed *slightly* less hard on my neck. Besides, I'm a "jump in head first" kind of gal.
This was from a shoot I did for Bump in the Night (BIT'N) Creations... a special effects company in the Philadelphia area specializing in prosthetic fangs and claws, just to give you an idea of what I meant by "alternative".

LOL, my pic was in here but I'm so homely it was probably deleted to protect the innocent. Sorry to hear of your accident. Coming back from serious injury can be a tough row to hoe. It sounds like you have the grit to do it though. You'll find hang gliding is very rewarding but not necessarily demanding (physically) except for the training. You'll be doing alot of running on the training hill. Keep at it and give us updates. If you have the time and money, a 1 or 2 week trip to a flight park is the best method and more fun too. Besides, vampires can fly, right?  I'm looking forward to hearing more from you.
