New Work - Kenton Magazine 'Like The Boys' editorial

Check out my latest work for this fashion editorial for KENTON Magazine http://kentonmagazine.com/kenton_editorials/like-the-boys/

I got to work with photographer Kelly Jill and stylist Krista Sung for this menswear inspired shoot. I kept the makeup for this look more natural with strong brows and contouring to give the model a slightly more masculine look. Her hair also adds to that same vibe. Check out the behind the scenes shots from the shoot as well.

2 Shoots - One Photographer

I recently did a couple of different shoots with photographer Pooya Nabei. The shoots are completely different and that's what I love about them. It's always so fun to play around with hair and makeup and try different things; thats why I love doing shoots like this. The first shoot was all about COLOR - we used color for everything, the lighting, the clothes, the makeup. The model Renata did a beautiful job with her expressions and movements in this shoot.
The second shoot was the opposite - black, white and gray but still equally as beautiful. I kept the hair and makeup more simple and so was the wardrobe and lighting. Our model, Kendall's expressions and movements were very subtle but still made a strong impact.

For both shoots, I got to work with the wonderful stylist, Krista Sung.

I've also included some behind the scenes from our colorful shoot.

I hope you guys enjoy these images as much as I do.

Beautiful Brides

One of the things I love most about my job is making my clients incredibly happy on one of the most important days of their lives. My recent bride Amanda looked so beautiful as a bride, she took my breathe away. Knowing that I helped her look and feel her best on her wedding is such fulfilling feeling.

Here are some pics from Amanda's wedding. Makeup for the bride and bridesmaids was done by me and hair was done by the fabulous Nadia Albano.

New Work - Fashion Editorial

I did a photo shoot a few weeks ago with photographer Eydis Einarsdottir, someone I've been wanting to work with for a while so I was very excited when I got the chance to. The shoot was shot at Sugar Studios, one of the top studios in Vancouver. It was a very fun, creative collaboration and I got to work with stylist Krista Sung, who did a fabulous job with the styling. Makeup and hair were both kept a bit more simple for this shoot to offset the elaborate wardrobe and accessories.
