My First Bridal Hair

A big thanks goes out to my good friend Lisa for having confidence in me to boldly go where I had yet gone before. Lisa courageously asked me to take care of her hair and make-up on one of the most significant days of her life. She knew that I had yet done bridal hair but, knowing what I am capable of, Lisa gladly volunteered to be my first test subject. We practiced a few times to make sure that it would be perfect on the big day. And oh my goodness, it was magnificent! I couldn't have accomplished it without your support, Lisa. Thank you for believing in me! *Hugs*

My First Shoot with Ariane Jaschke (Capture Video + Photo)

Doing make-up, at a wedding in July, I got to chatting with videographer/photographer Ariane Jaschke (http://www.capturevideo.ca/) We hit it off and decided to team up. These next pics are from our first collaboration together. (Hair and make-up by me!)

More great shots by Rebecca De Jong

With this shoot, Gabriella requested a very soft and natural look. Near the end of the shoot we smoked up her eye make-up and gave her dark berry lips to coordinate with her change in wardrobe. Gosh this was a fun one!

I'm Completely Mobile

Check out this pic to see just how mobile I am! haha....

This shoot was my second encounter working with - fabulous photographer - Rebecca De Jong (http://www.rphotographer.com/). Rebecca and I had planned to meet our client in the parking lot at Clayton Hills high school. I had no idea what I was going to do about a work surface. It's tough to do this kind of job without one. A light bulb wend on about an hour before our appointment - Why not take the ironing board? It was perfect and adjusted to just the right height.
