Crystal Countess Photo Shoot

A few weeks ago I was asked by a friend of mine if I would be interested in doing make up for a photo shoot he was organizing. This shoot was for his jewellery company Crystal Countess. 

My friend, Bryan designs & creates beautiful crystal jewellery pieces for a wide span of events and occasions. He designs everything from earrings and necklaces to tiaras and head jewels. 

I was so excited to be apart of this photo shoot because Bryan is SO creative and outgoing. I just knew his vision would have a awesome outcome and would be so much fun.

Make Up & Hair by Myself

I really enjoyed being able to do two contrasting looks on each girl. It’s a great way to show two different ways these jewellery pieces can be worn. I hope to post more pictures from this shoot as they are released. 

In the mean time if you wish to check out Crystal Countess you can find them here on Facebook or on Instagram.

Fashion Class Photo Shoots

As mentioned in my last blog I am currently attending a make-up school in Toronto called Complections.

Though out my time at Complections I will be learning the basics of hair styling, fashion, theatre, film & television, and special effect make-up.

So far I have completed their hair styling, fashion, and theatre courses. It seems crazy that I have already almost completed half the program.

I have finally received my pictures from my first photo shoot. During each course we are given the opportunity to have photos taken of two make ups that we would like displayed in our portfolios. Once the photos are taken we choose a shot we like for editing. It is then printed and ready to be placed in our portfolios. 

These are my photo's for my fashion course...

Ill post them as soon as I have them. :)

Finally attending school... Complections College of Makeup Art & Design

I have been meaning to write this blog for quite sometime and just couldn't find the time, or space to sit down and write it.

I basically want to explain why I haven't posted very much in the last few months. I believe I may have spoken about attending school in past entry's but have not fully explained or spoke about what I've learned so far. 

Starting on Oct 1st 2012 I began to attend a school in Toronto called Complections. This school specializes in make-up art and design. I have chosen their 26 week Comprehensive course which will cover Fashion Photographic make-up, Film & Television make-up, Theatrical make-up, Facial Hair & Knotting, Prosthetic make-up, and a short course on styling hair.
