Behind the scenes: Turn Magazine editorial

This shoot was lots of fun – we got to invade a fancy restaurant in New Bedford and shoot multiple outfits from Calico, a local shop. We worked from sunup to sundown! The concept for the makeup was very simple: clean, very bare airbrushed faces (almost no eye makeup at all) with strong contouring and [...]

Recognition – I has it again!

I figured it had been a year since winning Makeup Artist of the Week on the networking website known oh-so-appropriately as Model Mayhem, so I decided to try again with some newer images. Pretty gratifying, even if those contests never get the voter turnout the work deserves! (I had 9 votes total – next in [...]

Hey, can’t hurt right?And I’d definitely seen thumbtack in google search results before so I knew I should get with the program. So I signed up, and I [...]

Just received copies of my beauty spread with photographer Angela Michelle Perez, which appeared in the April issue (aka The Art issue) of Kontrol, an Atlanta-based fashion, culture & lifestyle magazine.

Sessions Magazine editorial

I’d almost forgotten about this shoot, from Halloween during my 2010 NYC testing trip – I was a last-minute addition to the roster and literally wrapped this a few hours before I boarded Amtrak to return to Massachusetts. We had a great time getting Gemmy prepped in the Starbucks on Front Street in Brooklyn (you [...]

Ch-ch-changes

Notice anything different around here – a new bio, and fewer pages perhaps? Well, you’d be right – I’m simplifying the content of this site considerably in preparation for the launch of my new bridal/personal services website! It makes so much more sense to have a page dedicated to my fabulous brides, while I keep [...]
