The Redhead

Worked today for a magazine called Bon. No $ but very creative editorial. The stylist was fantastic! So creative. Liz Botes.The photography is a team. They call themselves Mizo. Combo of both their names. Love their work. And of course Riku who does amazing makeup. We had worked with this model for his makeup book who has a very cool look. It was a bit of bondage with latex super tight! “bring the lube and sponge!” says Liz to her assistant several times. Love it. And then she throws in lace and feathers. And vintage wooden hoop skirt. Not sure what you call it, but it is suppose to go under the dress from the 1700′s? Anyways managed to snap a pic with the iPhone while shooting.
Era Hair




Just got some more new work in. This is an inspiration of different era’s but done like a Italian Vogue Shoot would do. Wish it was for them! These are all the same girl and it was amazing how she changed with each look. All of them are wigs except the 70′s girl. Her hair had so much texture from all the head wraps underneath the wigs and from the white spray i put in her hair for the disco girl. It took me about 20 minutes for each look as i had prepared the different looks the day before. Riku Campo did the makeup for this shoot and it was he who put this all together.. He is so talented and such an inspiration to work with. I just love working with him and we always get the most amazing work for our portfolio. It is really so important for me to work with really creative makeup artists. We feed off each other and inspire each other!
Beauty Shoot

I worked with the fabulous makeup artist Valli O’Reilly Who I met through Brian Adams. Oscar winner for makeup in the movie biz. She just might get another one for the Timothy Burton movie coming out called Alice in Wonderland. The makeup is stunning! Anyways it was the first shoot where we could really go for it. And we did. Great model and the photographer was David Jakel. He did a really great job and very excited to see the finals. These are some behind the scenes pictures I took with my iPhone and a great app called shakeit. Fun!
