Gemma

Gemma has been a fine art model for 10 years, after a career in fashion and beauty. She’s been touring worldwide to work with artists and photographers on projects big and small. She has a pre-raphaelite look that goes hand in hand with fine art, and her fashion background really lends itself to fashion nudes. She is also passionate about acting, having had small roles in BBC’s the Capture, Ridley Scott’s Napolean, Star wars: The Last Jedi with Annie Lebovitz & BBC’s Hollow Crown.

Her work around the industry means she has a keen understanding of how to take an idea and bring it to the next level. She often deals with emotive work as well as more architectural style nudes.
