My first photoshoot

Posted on February 21, 2011 | 2 Comments

March 2011 issue Inked Mag


A big Thank You to Warwick Saint (photographer), Garret Gervais (who did my makeup), Seth Mikel (did my hair) and Todd Weinberger (creative director for Inked Mag)! Such a talented, friendly group of people! They made me feel so comfortable and feel beautiful.


Totally unplanned and I was a nervous dweeb but it was such an awesome experience!


It made me think about how, although modeling appears like a surface performance, it can be a very stripping, vulnerable, exhilarating moment. I admire how models can be so in touch with themselves. Raw, real, in the moment. Feeling emotion completely, stripped of everything else. To capture that moment is so beautiful and inspiring.

Canvas: Extreme smokey eye

For this dramatic, high fashion look I sheered out her foundation with a moisturizer (to let her lovely freckles show through!), blocked out her brows and used a matte black eyeshadow.

Tip:

When you’re using that much eyeshadow, it can get messy. Put moisturizer underneath the eyes and wipe it away after you’re finished. It’ll grab the fall-out and hydrate the undereye with moisture.


A few products I recommend: NARS Sheer Glow foundation, Khiel’s Ultra Face Moisturizer, L’Oreal Voluminous mascara, Make Up For Ever eyeshadow.

Pale skin with lightly enhanced eyes and a bright pop of dramatic color on the lips is such a fun look.

To get this look: I used Face Atelier Ultra Foundation in shade #1, Chanel Eyeshadow Quad in Dunes on her lids and lined with Stila Kajal Liner in Onyx. For her lipcolor you can use Yves Saint Laurent Lipstick in 7 Le Fuschia to get a similar look.
