Amid a Vegas convention hall filled with surgically enhanced and chemically remastered porn stars, Sativa Verte is labeled a "fetish" or "alternative" model. A more accurate term for her is "natural," due to her minimal use (and need for) beauty products and her un-landscaped patches of body hair.
Verte is even more down-to-Earth than her hippie persona would imply. She instantly makes me feel as comfortable with myself — and my tiny camera — as she is when being circled by the scruffy photographers who prowl the AEE expo with their excessive equipment. Verte and other models have a pejorative for men who think their huge cameras give them permission to ask whatever they want of a model: GWCs or "guy with a camera." While Verte suggests this label doesn't apply to me, I suspect she may change her mind once I ask her about her infamous bush and armpit hair.
