Aussie bikini model Lara Bingle has reportedly signed a deal with a photo agency.
She is said to have struck a deal with photo agency Big Pictures for a cut of profits made from her own photos.

It is understood rival agencies are seething over the deal, which are generally commonplace in the US.
The move means Bingle can create and control the pictures released for sale to magazines and newspapers.
Bingle was snapped yesterday looking perfect after a long-haul flight from London.
The photo had a price tag of 250 dollars and it is thought Bingle would receive about 50 per cent of profits in a deal.

News of an alliance came as a surprise to Bingle's manager, Titus Day, who denied the pin-up had struck an agreement with self-proclaimed "Mr Paparazzi" Darren Lyons.

"We haven't done any deals with anyone," the Daily Telegraph quoted Day as saying.
But the millionaire Big Pictures agency owner has been seen lunching with Bingle on several occasions in recent weeks, and the former cricket WAG was seen at Sydney airport recently giving one Big Pictures photographer directions to her location.

It looks like Lara Bingle has finally bounced back after a bad 2010.

Following her very public split with Michael Clarke, 2010 turned out a tough year for the model.

And it didn't end well after she lost her driving licence.
It's believed that Bingle is off the road for six months.

"It wasn't one hit, it was for a number of random speeding fines that added up to take away her licence," the Herald Sun quoted a pal as saying.

"She gets her licence back around May," the pal said.

Soon after she lost her licence, Bingle headed to New York and Los Angeles, where she spent time with her rumoured love interest, singer Jason Derulo.

But she has now indicated she has a fresh attitude and some new projects on the way.

The model seemed to be in a great mood this week.
"I'm so grateful. I'm alive and living the dream. I'm living my dreams, thank you," she said on Twitter.

Jason Derulo has played down rumours of a romance with Lara Bingle.

The US singer, who was first romantically linked to Australian model Bingle after the ARIA Awards last year, said that he will just be "messing around" with women until the perfect person comes along.

Bingle has been on a "working holiday" in the States for a few weeks and recently posted pictures of herself and Derulo in a recording studio on her Twitter page.

Derulo told US Magazine that he thinks Bingle is "hot" but isn't dating anyone "seriously" at the moment, saying: "I'm kind of messing around. I'm focused on what I'm doing, but if the right girl came along then that would change things."
