Fashion Shows at the BETTER LIVING Show this weekend!

Hey you guys! I'll be heading up the Makeup for the Fashion shows at the Expo Center this weekend - come out and say hello! :) It's been a super crazy couple weeks, I'm sorry I haven't been able to update at all. If you're on my facebook, you'll have seen all the tv spots, behind the scenes pics, and everything in between! It's free admission for the Better Living Show, and there will be walking fashion shows all day, all weekend, with the Runway Shows at 8pm Friday, 8pm Saturday and 2pm Sunday. There will also be a huge VIP party at the Benson Hotel Saturday night - dress to impress!

See you on the runway! hugs!

Holly and Nicki Part I

A few weeks ago, I had a double shoot with Holly and Nicki and iBeauty Photography. The girls had long been wanting to emulate this rocker-edgy look from the 80's! The second set of the day, you'll have to wait and see... :) Hair and Makeup design by me of course :)

Here's Holly rockin her big hair!!

And this headshot of Nicki just took my breath away - wow!! Reminds me of some sort of vampire, Twilight-esque feel :)

Chinese Culture Fashion Show

A few weeks ago there was a fashion show at the Chinese Cultural Fair at the Convention Center and I was asked to be a key MUA for the show. The wonderful and talented Carrie Hamm (Makeup Artist) contacted me and I'm so glad she did! It was a gorgeous preview of designer clothes for all those visiting the Fair to see. There were 14 models for the show, and I was happy to know many of them. There are so many lovely ladies here in Portland! Model Kate Sson, one of my favorite girls, really wowed the crowd, and model Jillian Rabe was there, effortlessly and so elegantly showcasing the sweeping designs for the finale of the show. Beautiful!!! It was my honor and pleasure to make these ladies up, and everything went so wonderfully :) Here are a few random pics - wish I had more!! :)

Caitlyn

Forgive me! I've had no time to post - and now I have such a backlog of images oh dear. :)

This image was from a shoot with Jim of JTO Photo and he did such a lovely job with the lighting and beauty of this shot. It was such a pleasure to work with Caitlyn! She is only 19 years old, but after we had settled into makeup and were chatting, I was amazed by her maturity and the wisdom beyond her years. This beautiful headshot is one of my new favorites of my collection.
