Tell us about you? I’m full of curiosity and wonder I enjoy exploring different concepts when it comes to art and photography. I aspire to be as an embalmer and cremator.
How do you describe your kink? I like to dabble in everything. Everything in moderation. Latex, bdsm, role play and reversal etc.
What is your interest in rope? The term shibari has not been in my dictionary for very long but from what I know of it.
What has been your experience with rope? I find it an exquisite form of artistic display.
How was your experience working with Mr. Abrams? Mr. Abrams is the first shibarist I have come in contact with so this may be biased and I may be holding him on a pedastool but he’s exceedingly talented not only as a shibarist but a photographer as well as photo editor.
Do you consider yourself a Dominant, Submissive, or Switch? I am what I need to be, but for the right person I am a submissive, it is hard for me to naturally relax and give just anyone control of myself and my body. I find it easier to take on a dominant kind of role. However when I am physically with someone and I have no doubts about bar person I can let my guard down and trust them to take control.
How did you hear you about Knotty Girls? I encountered Mr. Abrams’ Instagram page and immediately the thought kind of stuck in my head. Although I don’t always collaborate I will for something that A. Piques my interest and B. Will definitely be a great addition to my portfolio.
You told me this was your first bondage shoot, how was it?
Would you consider yourself a kinky person? It was an interesting shoot and in no way did I feel violated Mr. Abrams kept it professional which helps all the more seeing as how restricting bondage can be.
How do you prepare for a show/shoot? In all honesty if it’s an early shoot I spend all night waking up every hour against my will finally manage to get up, put some cold tea bags over my eyelids apply some shadow, slick on some eyeliner and rub in some color (usually peachy or irridescent) on my cheeks (red/pink/wine) on my lips. I take my dog out, let her do her business and leave for my shoot.
Let’s change things up some…
Favorite Song to dance to? Anything by g eazy but I also like that song “I like tuh” DJ Carnage makes a remix featuring Lil Wayne and G Eazy 😉
However I also love country music and can find myself humming and swaying to that as well.
What’s you Guilty Pleasure? I enjoy sweets although I should really curb my intake. Not being of weight reasons, I could care less of how much I weigh.. I enjoy red meat, I enjoy sugar, especially sea salted brownies from trader joes and those little cake balls called wedding cakes as well as lemon tarts and coffee or mango flavored anything.
Which do you prefer;
Car, Truck or motorcycle? Tacoma crew cab. Although I drive a civic (super gas efficient) and motorcycles are awesome but you have to worry about yourself and obeying the rules of the road as well as relying on the people around you to know the rules of the road.
Sneakers, Boots, Stilettos? I like sneakers I like boots, heels are pretty yet not everyday functional.

Modeling Experience & Goals: Went to modeling and acting school at John Robert Powers IMTA. My goal is to get my hand back in to acting and photography
We began this photo shoot looking only capture a woman’s lips. A small but very pronounce part of a woman’s body. Unbeknownst to us, and even the model, she was looking for a release. We as people often get very few times to open up to that small voice that whispers “fuck it!” Well with each photo and some music that small voice began to speak louder from with in our subject and she opened up…
It’s funny how the ties that bind us are the same ones that blind us. I’m done being blinded.”

We see you saying this is your alter ego shoot, Tell us about your alter ego? lol My Alter Ego name is BAM. She is the opposite of Bianca, Bianca is more laid back. As for BAM she is more bold, adventurous and has a sexy seductiveness to her. that Bianca is too shy to bring out.
What was your inspiration for this shoot? My inspiration was that it was something I have never done and the fact it was no restrictions, and I could bring out my alter ego to shine.
Do you think people have a problem expressing their SEXY side as opposed to their SEXUAL side? Yes because a lot of times people lack confidence so they are not able to embrace that sexy side of them while there out or even looking at themselves in the mirror. Once you gain that confidence in yourself then that sexual side will come full force with the lights on lol.
We see you host a pole dancing class, tell us about it: I teach beginners pole fitness class to women and men who are looking to get fit but in a fun and different way.
How do you prepare for a shoot? I prepare b getting into character. I try to embody what the theme of the shoot is and get in a zone with some sexy music from Prince and go from there
How long have you been doing this? I haven’t modeled in over 13 years so when I got back into it I felt like a virgin
What got you into this? I’ve always had a passion for acting but I also had a sweet spot for modeling but once I had children I pulled back from it. But I realize me being a mom won’t stop me from my passions.
If you could go anywhere and model/do a photo shoot where would it be? Amsterdam
What’s your process for choosing assignments and why? I look for assignments that fit me and my image and stick with that. I like to try out of the box type of things.
Favorite child hood art project? I had a clay art project that we had to make a animal image into a cup or kitchen wear. So I sculpted a snake into a cup. I was in 4th grade for a art project at the Art Institute.
Dream Car? BMW
Best way for a man to approach you? Like a gentlemen and make me laugh so hard that I snort lol I’m goofy and I love a man that can make me laugh.
We all wanted to be something else, what is/was your fantasy job? To be a Broadway singer. But I can’t carry a note lol
How do you unwind? I unwind by listening to different music. I love Jazz, Stevie Wonder, Doors, Minnie Riperton I love music that have meaning, so I zone out to them.
Dancer or wall flower? I’m a dancer by nature when I hear a song that touches my soul oh I have to dance.

What’s was the inspiration behind this shoot? The inspiration was B&W Kink…… To show sexual expression without color… The body speaks for itself … Natural art.
How do you prepare for a shoot? First I pray… Then I pack any of my own belongings that I may need… I practice facial expressions … I also have a talk with myself.. Then when I arrive at the shoot I pray again.
Take Off by Ashley Weathers
I won’t do this poetry thing like the rest
No not no way I want to b known as a great
But if I can’t get that Il take one of the best
I can survive any open mic
Put me to the test
N I’ve never been to one
But I mite
I’m not being big headed
I’m just being real
Staying confidant
But I’m sure I’m right
If there were hood poetry battles
I would win Straight knock out no fight
I work hard for anything and everything
Not slight
Cuz when I get to the top
I don’t ever want the good stuff to stop
I got to blow up Straight go , no stop sign
No pedestrians
I’m not waiting on no one to catch up
Go time Green light
Nothing will hold me back
Nope not drugs
Not even Gett’n slapped
Not in these streets like that
So Im sure ain’t getting capped
Not leaving this world no time soon
But soon I will b a star
Or should I’ll be way up to the Moon

Lesson learned the hard way: So I learned that you can’t be nice to everyone the hard way. People often take my kindness for weakness. They try to see how much they can get out of me.
How long have you been doing this? I have been modeling for about 3 years now and I love it!
What got you into this? When I was younger so many people told me that I should model. I tried it and was very good at it…I really enjoy it.
