Milano - 11-18 May

2008-04-27T11:19:08Z

EN: I'm still waiting for some shoots confirmations, however I will be in Milano approx 11-18 may. There are some slots left so if you want to book me you're still in time. However, hurry as first comes, first served. No TFCD [schedule is full] unless it's for publication [magazines etc; to be discussed]. Time for clothes is accepted, however it must be discussed before. Paid work will get highest priority.
Click here to contact me :)

IT: Sarò a Milano dall'11 al 18 maggio. Alcuni shoot sono da confermare e/o il giorno non è stato ancora fissato, ma se volete lavorare con me siete ancora in tempo. Contattatemi quindi per disponibilità e per maggiori informazioni.
Affrettatevi però: chi mi contatta prima avrà ovviamente la priorità su chi mi contatta dopo. No TFCD [a meno che sia per pubblicazioni su riviste, da discutere]. Time for Clothes [pagamento totale o parziale in abiti/scarpe/etc] è preso in considerazione, tuttavia deve essere discusso prima dello shoot. I lavori pagati avranno la priorità.

Al solito: wardrobe stylists, designer, makeup artists, hair stylist sono sempre i benvenuti. Contattatemi !

"Time"

2008-04-17T21:33:21Z

Ok, in the end no shoot last monday. I got a sms couple of days later stating it's postponed; no harm done. I don't know when I will shoot, hopefully within couple of weeks as I'm getting really busy once again and apparently the weather pretty sucks lately. Not to mention I'll be heading to Milano quite soon [I am absolutely looking forward this trip].

Nothing really exciting happened lately, please excuse my silence :). Oh no, wait. Something exciting happened couple of days ago and I went all *squee*.. just for the record ;P

And, about decorating a bit my LJ [print available by the way!]:

[Picture by Lazarus Walking <3]

I am very looking forward next months: I just got confirmation on some things and I am dying to tell you everything - but I just can't. Yet :). I don't really want to jinx it :) bear with me please! :)

Oh, and before I forget: I am not really sure any of you is in doubt, however I'm being called 'sixthessence' more and more.
Sixthessence is the name of my website - please call me DELILAH. You can actually append 'sixthessence' in order to create some 'Delilah Sixthessence' name [I know there are other personalities who share the same name; we all do different things so there shouldn't be any doubt about who's who. So, the addition of that kind of 'second name' could be handy just in case, but still].

Delilah. Please.

ps: Happy birthday x_in_tenebris_x !

Buzznet, Goth Girl of the Week feature and Bring Back Kumimonster!

2008-04-06T18:51:52Z

So couple of days ago I went to Udine, did some boureaucracy stuff and met couple of friends. Tocùt, one of them, made my day by bringing me some muffins from UK [hey, they're about double of the size! omg!] and giving me some other goodies, such as some japanese candies. Oh I love them, they look so kawaii and pretty! I'm easily pleased indeed :)

I also noticed today that "back then" [over one year ago apparently] I created an account on BuzzNet and forgot about it! So if you are on BuzzNet, add me [yes, I know my profile is all pink.] :)

I am supposed having a shoot tomorrow, however I still didn't get any confirmation email or message, which is pretty strange. I better contact the photographer and see what's going on o_O. Worst that could happen is that we postpone the day - no harm done, however I need to know in time. It's a very very busy month and my schedule is totally crazy :/.

Ah! I've been featured as Goth Girl of the Week! Interview + Feature are HERE if you want to see :)

On other sad news, kumimonster 's journal has been deleted! We want Kumi back, sign the petition here!

Plus, if any of you knows any good trick in order to backup ALL of the old entries, please tell me. These days, you never know when you're gonna get deleted - not fair. It would be annoying to save entries one by one. I assume I could take advantage of the rss feed, but how? Thanks!

I was checking my profile on some websites and while browsing the web I stumbled upon this picture Massimiliano Brianzoni took of me last year. I've never seen it before and I like it so much that I feel like posting here :)

[Yes, the image is rather large compared to the ones I usually post, however I am not picky about my layout and screwing it doesn't make me feel like a criminal :P]

I would like to see more from these series, tho. I was wearing a pretty pinup corset and I'm very curious to know how it turned out on the pics :)

On other news, I had a stressful day and I'm glad it's over.I have to reply some urgent emails as soon as possibile and restart working on my project. I am anyway too sleepy to write decent emails or even daring to peek the code now. I will postpone it, I really need to catch some sleep..

Easter!!

2008-03-23T09:25:58Z

Happy Easter Everyone :)

Travel Notice: May 2008: Milano, Novara

2008-03-22T10:42:48Z

Travel Calendar [click here to visit]:

EN: Planning a work trip to Milano and Novara early May. Currently Accepting bookings. Contact me for Rates and Availabilty. No TFCD, however Time for Clothes can be considered.

IT: Sto pianificando un viaggio a Milano - Novara per i primi di maggio. Date da confermare, a seconda dei lavori proposti. Contattatemi per maggiori informazioni. No TFCD, ma Time for Clothes può essere discusso.

I am always interested on cooperations with stylists of any kind [wardrobe stylists, hair stylists, makeup artists and anyone who's creative in what they do. Please contact me if interested in shooting your creations].

I also have a bunch of news. First, I'd like to remind you that tomorrow evening, at the Onyrica Fetish Night [Torino, Italy] there will be a photo exhibition by Mark Loré. Here is one of the pieces that you will see:

[Ermione on the left [as Helleanor] and me on the right[as The Empress Vranja]]
Masks by Madame Khufu.

I got interviewed by LiberaEva and the article is showcasing about 20 pictures. Here is the link, however it's Italian only. I know some of you got foreign language skills so happy reading :) - alternately, it's still a good chance to check the pics some more.

The one who gets the title/opening quote first deserves a bunch of 'hurrah''s. Actually, that was meant as a part of the very last question 'what would you tell to the readers?', however it got hacked and put as opening title o_O I wonder why, it makes no sense to me that way :(. Oh well.

I also managed to find Sweeney Todd's lyrics so I can sing it like there's no tomorrow. Back to my work now - I got deadlines I can't absolutely miss!

Update, Onyrica event, Mark Loré exhibition

2008-03-12T09:14:01Z

As some of you know, I recently went through a Dear One's loss.
I am not really willing to talk and discuss about it - and surely not on a livejournal - however I would like to thank the few people who supported me and apologize everyone for disappearing and not being really responsive. I bet you can perfectly understand the situation. Latest months have been hard and this was the hardest part of it all.

* * *

Until the end of april I will be really busy with everything but modeling, except one shoot in my area probably. I am planning a travel to Milano around the end of april / beginning of May. Anyone willing to work with me should contact me for rates and availability as soon as possible as the slots are limited and a few days are booked already.

On other news, while approving some friends on MySpace yesterday evening, I stumbled upon this flyer regarding an Onyrica event:

even if I'm not really recognisable due to Madame Khufu's mask, I am the blonde one ;). The other model is Ermione - I guess you can find the original pic in this journal, while browsing older entries.
I also discovered that dear Mark Lorè will exhibit his pictures there - congratulations!

If you really are interested in prints, a new batch of pictures will be sent to the photo lab after next week for printing, so orders and payments should be placed before end of next week [deadline is 23/03/2008].
Remember that you can try by asking pictures 'not on the prints page' to be printed anyway, just send the url of the pic along with your request and we'll get back to you and let you know. Thank you :)

DirtyAngels.net

2008-02-17T12:36:15Z

Some time ago I joined a community, DirtyAngels. I really liked the spirit behind it. There you won't find party pics and random shots, instead you will find a pretty selection of pictures by models and photographers. Quality counts.

The community is mostly Russian based: however, it's in English, you can speak English and you will most likely not have to fight language barriers, even if some text may appear totally unreadable to you :).
Still, there's no much 'international' people over there, so I advice you to join and enjoy the atmosphere and the pretty pictures.

You can signup for an account: spectator, photographer and model. It's free. Help this community grow, it's worth it :)

and here's the link to my profile: CLICKY CLICK! Pass by and say hello :)

Peacock!

2008-02-16T19:37:52Z

So today I got 3 new books I am totally happy of! "Integral Calculus and Differential Equations" and couple about Electronics. The Electronics ones are however supposed being a trilogy, and I am missing the first one. Sigh. I'll look for it, I'm pretty sure I can easily find it.

The most funny thing is that, about 10 years ago, I wouldn't probably have appreciated these kind of books [esp. maths related]. I now do. Past year has been very good regarding my approach to maths. I think it's not that people can't get maths, I just think it depends on how things are taught. And also depends on who explains you subjects. When your "teacher" is passionate about it, you get the spirit behind calculus, algebra and beyond. Enough to appreciate them to a certain extent, at least.

I also unexpectly got a new bag from my grandmother - and it's not even my birthday :)

I promised you a new picture, and here it is. It's from a last year's shoot with Aldo Stefanni [print available]

[click here to purchase the print]

We are managing to create a pretty 'candies' series. Using candies as a part of the makeup is one of the funniest concepts ever and I am quite sure I will re-do it in the future, once I get some more spare time to experiment and test :)

Enjoy your evening && weekend!

Valentines

2008-02-14T13:15:10Z

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! <3

Busy? More than you can think.

2008-02-03T22:19:13Z

It's quite some time since my latest post, I apologise. I am being very, very, very [and even more 'very'] busy.

The worst part of being so focused on certain things [work, projects, daily survival] is that you actually need to forget a bit about the rest. And I find quite funny that, in these weeks in which I am [and will be] mostly off the scene, I got at least 3 calls involving hugely interesting offers and/or proposals. Duh :) I guess it's some kind of Murphy's law :)

I also had to postpone some shoot to a better date; I am quite glad all of the photographers, until now, have been really comprehensive and perfectly understood the situation. Which is cool.

Just for the sake of it, and since I guess a good reminder isn't that bade, my availability info follow:

*************************
Until further notice, I am available in my area only [Friuli Venezia Giulia, even better if around Udine itself] for shoots. Contact me for rates and availability by clicking here. Do not forget to include all of the information [there are useful guidelines in order to help you on that page], thank you :)
*************************

I also don't remember whether I ever mentioned I've been interviewed in the past for Beauté Froide. Everything is in French and you should register to read, but the whole thing is located HERE.

Other than this, I logged in on my DeviantArt account which I almost never use and noticed that the cute VirginPunk submitted this news about CandyGirls, featuring one of my 'green hair and candy makeup' pictures. Yay, thank you!

outdoor shoot and suicidal beauties

2008-01-21T22:14:39Z

So past saturday we had this outdoor shot and now I'm sick. Dammit. The worst thing ever, I can't concentrate on what I do and it takes 10X time to accomplish what I am doing. Hope it's over soon, must be an evil mixture of illness, stress and negative feelings that are floating around lately.

I am starting a HUGE project [computer science related] that will literally involve all of my spare time other than 'ordinary' time. It's gonna be difficult but I am quite excited about it. I think it may be completed around april. Lots of coding awaiting, aye!

Pretty news: I am featured on Suicidal Beauties, from MySpace. "Suicidal Beauties is for models to share pictures and get noticed."

Go check them out. There are so many models featured and Miss RachaelDeath is putting so much effort in creating such a pretty page.

I found the albums very entertaining, so many pretty pictures all together and some models are truely inspiring. So if you have some time and you like beautiful pics'n'gals, I advice you to check the albums, they're worth it :)

And now, back to work. I would so like going to bed but I can't as the deadline for what I'm doing is evil and there is not much time left *sigh*

work work work

2008-01-14T21:12:07Z

Great.

I was replying some emails and all of a sudden my email client mixed all of the emails into one big folder [being the inbox]. I usually sort work emails, university emails, modeling emails and other. And now everything is all together. So, right now, I am unsure about who I replied to and stuff. It will take some time before I reply everyone and I may forget to do it for someone else. Grah. I am already deadly busy this period, I didn't absolutely need any client revolution >_< it's such a waste of time.

Week plan: tomorrow I'll go downtown to sign some paper, the day after tomorrow I'll go to Udine during the morning and, once at home, I'll send out some work email to keep people updated about their projects, thu-fri hard work, saturday shoot [will we ever manage to shoot?] and sunday I will probably work some more. I am also supposed having at least couple of meetings and everyday is filled with other duties that I am not gonna list here.
I am so going to kill the next one who asks me 'what I do that's so time consuming'. Really. Beware.

Bright, or better, shiny news: a 'new' picture by Lionel. This set didn't turn out as expected at first, but we managed to turn it into something special.

This is how latex should always be. Tight and oooh, shiny!

IMPORTANT [apparently I updated my website but I didn't update my LJ]: Due to personal reasons, I will accept selected bookings in my area [Udine and nearby] during january and february. I will be available during weekends only and will probably NOT travel outside Friuli Venezia Giulia.

Venice Carneval trip has yet to be confirmed: contact me if you're passing by and willing to shoot during that period [weekends only]. First come, first served as I have really little time and a tight schedule already.

Oh, and what you think about the new profile page? Is that too pink :D? Please forgive me for not being so gawth lately :P

Lo birthday!

2008-01-08T21:20:42Z

Quick entry to wish theangelicsin Happy Birthday!! :D

sixthessence.com domain and emails up and working!

2008-01-04T21:20:49Z

NOTICE: As the title says, sixthessence.com is up and both website and emails are up and running again. As I am doing some tests I guess I will get some double emails x_o tho none should get lost.

Fully back online then. :)

More website updates

2008-01-03T23:17:24Z

My website is back online, it has been down for little time during jan, the 3rd. Remember that my emails are not working yet! They will probably be up again by tomorrow afternoon :). Galleries, anyway, are browsable again :D

If you stumble upon any flaw or missing page, promptly notify me please! :)

On a little sidenote, amusing evening.

I have been pointed to a picture of mine on staylace. Whilst I love the website and I was looking forward getting pretty corset pictures, I didn't expect someone chose one of my pics for the gallery #2. Here is the pic :) [by Zeder, I guess it's the one from his calendar].

And now, off to bed!

Goddess Queen of Darkness - again!

2008-01-02T21:31:33Z

So here I am, apparently The Goddess Queen of Darkness, the girl/guy [who knows?] who keeps stealing my pictures and offering online domination services, is back online. You may remind him/her from my old post about it. It wasn't easy to find her again, I stumbled upon her by chance.

I then decided to check a bit more and see what I've found:
a. Her new MySpace Profile after the old one has been deleted
b. A profile on SnapVine, to fool people around [doesnt' the girl in the picture looking like someone you know?]

I then created a profile on SnapVine too and added as friends all of the people she's subscribed to / are subscribed to her. I put clear links on my account page, I hope they check them and notice they are being fooled [and probably their money stolen too].

I just emailed at least 9 [NINE!!] of her slaves on MySpace, and God knows how many there are over there. It's right they know they are, like, running after someone who is a FAKE.

Whoever you are, STOP using my pictures to advertise your dirty work! The photos are copyrighted, yes, even if you badly photoshopped away the watermarks, and it's ILLEGAL to steal ID's!!

I am seriously thinking about going to the police tomorrow morning and see what to do about it, as reporting her/him. It's not difficult to catch people, IP addresses are for something.

Website Transfer: News Update

2007-12-30T22:51:41Z

I received an email stating that my website will start the transfer process after january, the 2nd. This is still good since holidays last until the 6th, however I can not give detailed timings about the transfer yet as it does not depend on me.

Therefore, I assume that, until january the 1st, everything will properly work. I better extend my 'web-transfer' deadline until the 6th. So that you know :) and until january the 10th I'll be busy with other duties.

I am glad that work is going nicely, as I am putting all of my efforts into a special website right now and, after having made the plain html/php version, I am now working on the full php/dynamic one and I have more time to do so :). The sooner I'm done the better, I agree, but not having tight deadlines and generally more time is beautiful :).. more news soon. In the meanwhile, I wish you happy 2008!

Website MOVING now! + Empress Vranja and Helleanor Pic!

2007-12-26T20:36:51Z

Okay. Officially, I am starting the process of moving my website TOMORROW MORNING.

I do not know how long it will take before my website and my email addresses will be up again [since when they will go down], so if you need to contact me, you have several options:

a. wait until everything is up again [it will take some days only]
b. If it's urgent, please email my agency, NMA at booking@nocturnalmodels.com - and propose any work you may have in mind. They will be able to contact me.
c. commenting here [I won't be offline, just my website/emails will for a limited time!]

When the website will be up again I will post an entry on purpose and, as a reward for your patience, I will add some more pictures/galleries. Here's a sneak preview of one picture by Mark Lorè featuring couple of his characters, the Empress Vranja [me!] and Helleanor [Ermione], first one from a little serie:

Masks featured are by Madame Khufu.

Arturo Corinto Artwork and Holidays Wishes

2007-12-24T17:43:44Z

I am so excited!! See what the great artist Arturo Corinto sent me:

aww! Isn't it awesome? The reference picture is by Lazarus Walking. What else to say, great work. I envy this guy's skills :)

I'll take advantage of this post to wish you..

MERRY, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008!!!
Have TONS of fun!

reminder: in a few days my website + all of my email addresses will be down for some time. If you get errors or get no reply within couple of weeks, please resend your emails.

new pic and warning: moving website in a while!!

2007-12-22T14:03:44Z

I was finally about moving my website to a more reliable server yesterday, then I forgot that I need to give notice earlier. During the process of moving, my website will be down - and ALL of my email accounts too. I am thinking of doing so right during these holidays, as nobody's supposed to work and - at least, in theory - nobody should need to contact me via email that badly :P and well.. even if I lose some greetings, it's not the end of the world. I will probably be 'unreachable' from 25th dec 07 to 2nd jan 08.

I will post a warning in my journal on when it will not be possible to contact me any more, and will give directions on how to do it anyway in case it's needed. Please keep an eye on here and make sure I was able to get your email! If you sent it and got an error [or got no reply after, let's say, couple of weeks -since these days I am travelling and I may not be able to reply emails] then SEND IT AGAIN! Don't worry about sending it twice, it's better to get one more than getting none at all :)

Before to leave for shopping [uhm, I still have to buy some Christmas presents and I absolutely have no idea on what to go for] here's an unusual pic of me. No latex, no pvc, no corsets... and you can't spot the high heels, however there is some bondage performed by dear Lionel, who also is the photographer. We went for something 'soft' and beautiful. The beauty of the knots and compositions, obviously, which were extraordinary.

I have a few more bondage pics that I will post in the future. Not sure if dividing them in many different galleries [as the bondage is different] or just make one bigger gallery with all of the styles. Advices anyone?

I love my neighbors

2007-12-19T21:35:39Z

So well, in the end the 8th we didn't manage to shoot - we forgot it was national holiday in Italy and we had some problem regarding it [mostly about means of transportation, which would not allow me going to the studio properly]. It's okay, we postponed [yet again, *g*].

Instead, I went to a shopping center last saturday and bought some new makeup for my shoots, as I needed it but didn't buy it before as I was looking forward trying this new brand :) I tried some today and it looked nifty, we'll see. I also bought some very girly glitter lipstick :P

Shooting-wise, I had some plan before the end of the year but sadly I am running out of time. Postponing it again to january or, maybe, february. I am taking things easy as there's no reason to hurry - plus as I've said back then I have so many other priorities right now :) so here's the answer for who asked.

Speaking of pictures, here's another one from Danny, "I love my neighbors" [this one is available as a print, too]:

Pic, editing and concept by Danny :) - I will upload a bigger version on my website tomorrow ;)

Tease :)

2007-12-04T12:02:12Z

So today I feel like I wasted my day [and it's only 1 PM!], whilst I managed to almost-finish a website [just a little touch and it's done! Finally!] and fixed couple of things. I'll try to manage giving in something for tomorrow, sadly it depends on a certain support team who keeps claiming the error is on my side of code [while the most reliable person ever checked and fixed the code and I'm 100% sure the problem is not mine]. However, since I have to work with the other team, I have to wait for them to check 'things', and this takes some time :/

Sigh. I hate being late on things. In a special way when it's not my fault, makes me feel useless and I hate waiting.

I'm glad I will probably have a meeting next week and catch up a bit with positive feelings, yay :). There also is a shoot planned for this saturday, hopefully we'll make it [top secret still, it's quite some time we're planning to do something and I dont wanna jinx it ;)] :D

Bright side is that I got couple of interesting calls yesterday, I hope the projects will go on. Oh, and I also got some other previews by dear Lazarus Walking. Yay for previews. Here's one, oh, the vanity <3

[btw, this one is available as a print too]

Also, I am studying quite hard. Please, bear with me. I know I have a thousand emails to reply to, just that I can't cope with it all. Allow me up to a week to get back 'in shape' and reply them one by one. I quite dislike replying in a hurry and these days I really have no time, sorry. I barely manage to reply to work emails :(

MySpace Drama: "Goddess Queen of Darkness" - FAKE PROFILE!! NOT RELATED TO DELILAH!

2007-11-25T00:15:36Z

This person offers an online domination service. I've been informed she asks for MONEY to do so.

Nothing bad, if she wasn't using MY images pretending they're hers [well, 'hers', if she really is a female, that is], and I heard she claims to be the person portrayed in the photos [obviously, the watermarks have been badly photoshopped away].

I run a FREE website and I make NO money off my work, everyone can see my pictures for free and I always try to provide my website visitors with new sets from time to time, when work and study allow me some spare time to do so.

It makes me all itchy to know that someone is taking advantage of my work and using my pictures to promote herself AND getting money. It's unfair and absolutely not honest towards people.

I am NOT RELATED with this person in any way. I do NOT know who he/she is and he/she is NOT authorized using my pictures for his/her purposes.

I reported her in the past at least couple of times and I even sent her a warning message, which obviously got ignored. I keep getting warned by kind MySpace fellas about what this person is doing. I sent yet another email to MySpace yesterday, in hope they stop all this. Please, I kindly ask you to REPORT HER. It takes less than one minute and you don't need a MySpace account to do so.

Note: she is using also other model's images. Let's stop all this.

Thank you.

EDIT: Sun, 25 Nov 2007 14:04:50 -0800 [23.15 here]

THE PROFILE HAS BEEN DELETED. THANK YOU MYSPACE GUYS AND THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO REPORTED THE PROFILE!

Danny Pictures!

2007-11-16T19:57:59Z

New picture, as promised :)

On the most amazing note, Danny sent me a preview couple of days ago *already*. He's one of the best photographers I worked with until now, no doubt. I am sure you will see more of him in the future, the guy has mad skills - and I am sure in a while he'll be very well known at least in Italy for being among the top photographers. It will not take much time before he breaks his way thru fame and success *for better atmosphere while reading this sentence, make sure to listen to Die Walküre: ride of the Valkyries*

The bigger, the better! Here's a huge new picture of me by Danny! Thank you!!

(note: ONE extension left! I sense something in the air, dying my hair soon ^^°)
