Spring 2011 Hair and Makeup Trends

Sunday October 24th

A couple of weeks ago I worked on a bride by the name of Fari. This bride came to me through her mother. I had actually worked on her mother's eyebrows a few months back at Mandalay Mist Bronzing Salon. I work there from time to time as the Esthetician on staff.

Fari was unique...she had a personality that shines. She has a big smile and just seems to be fun loving and so warm! The day of the wedding, I came to their home where I did make-up for Fari, her mother and younger sister. I don't have any pictures yet, but I keeping my fingers crossed, and I'm hoping they remember me as fondly as I remember them and maybe Fari will send me a picture to post for everyone to see:)

Congratulations Fari, and thanks for making my work such a fun experience!!!!

Yesterday I had the chance to work with Carlyn Phillips MUA of NYC & Tampa. She was such a pleasure to work with, and it's always great to see how other Make-up Artists work. I love picking up new ideas!

We arrived at the location at about 11:30 and worked until about 5. Mother of the bride, 3 brides maids and bride, were polite and fairly easy going. Even though we worked hard, it's always nice to work with beautiful ladies that are fairly easy to please!

SHOOT CANCELED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE! :(

I'm up and awake pretty early today; beacuase, I'm getting ready for a shoot with Sandra Hagen. I'm going to be working with 3 models, and I can't wait to share the images!

December 20th Photo Shoot

On December 20th 2009 I had the opportunity to work on a photo shoot with a very talented group of individuals! The team consisted of Fashion Designer Sandra C. Hagen, Photographer Christopher Garofolo, Hairstylist Tammica Simon, Models Adriana Susana,Megan Henderson, Lacey Buchanan and of course myself.

Models were showing off Sandra's beautiful collection of 6. These dresses are a must see! They're romantic, femenine, fun, flirty all in one! The makeup I applied at Sandra's request was romantic, fairytale like with long lashes and bits of shimmer. The models were naturals in front of the camera. They displayed much talent; needing little to no direction! All of the above combined with Tammica's runway hairstyling(amazing!), Christopher's keen eye for fashion photography, made for stunning images!

In the future I would reccomend working with any of them, and it would be my pleasure to join them again anytime!

Here is one os the images as well as a link for more of Christophers work!
