This was such a different shoot for me – very colorful, creative, and downright CREEPY! We shot in the apartment above the hairstylist’s, and if that place isn’t haunted, I don’t know what is. Peeling wallpaper, mysterious stains on the floor… you name it. To make things even creepier, we filled the rooms with mirrors and, for one look, draped our model Freya in translucent fabric. For a shoot that actually took place in May, the published piece (in the current issue of Spirited Magazine) has a very Halloween-appropriate, creepy-doll kind of feel! Enjoy.

Here are some other shots we took that day that didn’t make the spread, but that show the makeup well:

Shannon, the photographer, posted a beautiful selection of images from the day in her blog as well.

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 gotta do what you gotta do on a location shoot)! The clothing designer, Eminent Fash, subsequently submitted our work to an online magazine called Sessions – here is the spread:

And since I know it’s hard to actually see the makeup in this layout, here are a few close-ups from the shoot:
