I just found this awesome photo from the wolf brothers painting workshop i did, not that i have to draw more attention to my boobies, but its pretty cool eh.

What a Great day, It started with a hair and makeup gig for a fantastic high flying corporate, she was gorgeous, the kinda girl who plays hardball with the boys and was a bit freaked out by the prospect of a face-full of warpaint, you should have seen her face when i pulled out the airbrush, but i won her over with a bit of charm and a my patented a little goes a long way makeup style, she was so wrapped with the experience she even brought me a coffee.
After that i popped up to weltec to talk to the makeup students about working in the industry, they were so eager and keen to soak up any information i could pass on, i did a impromptu
demo on Hayley the tutor, the kids were so cute, i felt like a grand dame passing on my secrets. I also checked some great Hair and Makeup shots from the MAC gala dinner at Rosemount Australian Fashion Week posted on the amazing Richard Kavanagh's Blog i think Richard is responsible for the fantastic Do's, check out his blog for more yummy pics, I love the eye makeup on the model with the intense eyebrows, might have to give that one a whirl on the next fashion jobby.

Cool Shoot for super designer Cathy Tree Harris

2010-03-16T00:09:00.000-07:00

Awesome shoot for the lovely Cathy Tree Harris www.cathytreeharris.com , super designer and all round amazing chick, Tree as she,s known is the winner of several World of Wearable Arts WOW awards www.worldofwearableart.com She's a bit clever eh.

This was shot by the superduper Steve Unwin who is a photo maker type man.

The Beautiful set dressing was done by Weta workshops Alex Falkner and the frock is called, She looks good in a sack and she certainly does when its modeled by the amazonian beauty Nicola Provost.

You can't really see the makeup in this one but its such an awesome shot.

I have some shoots i have done with Tree that i will try to post.

Before and After, I think I'm over my Horror couture stage, but don't quote me on that.

2010-03-15T23:41:00.000-07:00

This is from a shoot i did with Derek Elvy from Buoy Hairdressers in Wellington, Derek really is the master of Avant garde Hair, Check out that crazy melted hair peice like a futuristic zombie babe, it kind of reminds me of a J G Ballard character, this shoot was two years ago, it seems i went thru a bit of a stage of airbrushing everyone white and making them look @#$*ed up horror couture styles, i think i'm over that for now but might revisit that genre again in the future ......Check out more of Mr Elvy's work at www.buoy.co.nz

A New Post .......Wahoo and the first one on my Mac, i've had it three months and still haven't got around to posting.........what a slackO, As this blog is dedicated to my working life as a freelance makeup artist i better fill my readers ( Tor and Mum) in on my exciting worklife...........In 2009 i have moved into a new area of business Weddings!! ....crazy i know, I have done quite a few this year and really enjoyed them and had amazing feedback...Word off mouth bookings have been my on fire, so i have decided to promote myself stronger in this area , I've even made a little website dedicated to my wedding bussiness.

I also have found a lovely assistant called Nisha......so weddings seem to be a go go, Princess days as i call them, the one day the every woman gets to be pampered like a princess ( and look like one ), coming from a strong photographic and fashion makeup background seems to be a bonus so i'm going to post my link for my wedding website please check it out.
