Daughters of Dawn Vintage

This was my last shoot in Vancouver!... It was great and i love the pictures!... I want to thank again to my friends of Daughters of Dawn (Katie & Erin) for inviting me to be a part of this, and you guys must visit the store ( http://www.daughtersofdawn.com/) because the Fall 2009 Collection is coming soon and it is really cool!... The Photographer for this shoot was the awesome and talented Tyson Fast and the model was the gorgeous Miss Saundra Jones who was amazing infront of the camera, she's got the moves!... So, for the shoot we went all the way to richmond to a dead tree farm that was creepy and full of spiders!... The feel we went for was a glamorous girl lost in the woods after and awesome party and a little bit of a "Cougar" feel with the vintage fur... For the makeup i use an earthy palette but giving more intensity with a glossy touch and for the hair i just gave her some waves to give it a flowy movement... Hope you enjoy the pictures and give some feedback!

Esta fue la ultima sesion que hice en Vancouver!... Estuvo genial y me encantan las fotos!... Quiero agradecer de nuevo a mis amigas de Daughters of Dawn (Katie & Erin) por invitarme a formar parte de esto, y creo que todos ustedes deberian de visitar su sitio (http://www.daughtersofdawn.com/) porque la temporada otoño 2009 estara pornto disponible y esta increible!... El fotografo para esta sesion fue el increible y talentoso Tyson Fast y la modelo fue la hermosisisisma Miss Saundra Jones que estuvo genial frente a la camara... Para la sesion fuimos hasta richmond a una granja de arboles muertos que estaba un poquito tenebrosa y llena de arañas!... El concepto que buscamos para la sesion fue una damita muy glam perdida en el bosque despues de una fiesta y un poco del look "Cougar" con las pieles vintage... Para el maquillaje use una paleta en tonos tierra pero dandole mas intensidad con un toque de brillo y para el cabello solo le di unas ondas para tener un poco mas de movimiento... Espero que disfruten las fotos y que me den su opinion!...

Color Inspired...

I wanted to do a shoot with more color! and it was so much fun! I used a crimping iron on Ellyse hair and it was big!!!!!! so big... for the makeup i wanted to do something more interesting than the basic eye shape and using colors that i don't use for a regular photo shoot... And pretty much you can do anything with Ellyse and she is going to look beautiful!... her skin is beautiful and perfect and all colors look great on her!...

I hope you like the pictures!

I finally got the pictures of an awesomely fun shoot i did at the end of may!!... it was great but it was hard to get everything together! (Hair, Makeup and Styling)... That is why is better to have a bigger team helping you out than do it all yourself!... 

I had the pleasure to work with Alyson Strike one more time and i must say she is awesome!... great attitude and very creative!...

This time we had Aiya Feldman as the model! Just taking a look at her face and all i can say is stunning!!!!... even without makeup!!... 

I hope you like the pictures!!!... Let me know!!!... Feedback is always great!!!...

I have to admit i haven't been doing a lot of shoots lately because i've been distracted with the summer... And it takes time for the photographers to retouch the pictures and all that stuff...

But well, i just got in my mail the pictures of a shoot i did with LeBrone Wade... He contacted me on a thursday and just told me to be at 6 p.m. at the New Westminster skytrain station on sunday... I worked that day and it was horrible as brunch always is... so i rushed after work running with my kit as fast as i could... he picked me up and introduced me to Melissa Stefanopoulos, who was the female model for the day... After that we drove for a bit and got to the location... It was extremely windy, cold and full of sand...  i had to set up in his truck and my makeup was rolling all over... 

At the end of the day it was fun and it is always great to meet new people and work on difficult and weird situations... Makes you better on the job... 

And what's better than finish your day with a shoot to remind how much you love what you do...
