Sharing the Joy....

Many people ask me if I like being a makeup/hair artist. Normally I answer back with a quick "yes", but truthfully that doesn't really cover the half of it. I don't "like" my job, I LOVE IT! Why?...well if you were in my shoes you would know exactly what I meant.
Even though I'm a makeup/hair artist, I wear a variety of other hats in my life as a mother, daughter, sister, wife, artist, teacher, beauty expert and a business woman. All of these elements add a lot of flavor to the mix, so I just thought to myself "you've logged a lot of hours on this interesting journey of yours, so you might as well share the ride". So I am! That will be the only way for you to understand what I love about my profession and why I love living in the moment....

BEFORE/AFTER from INSPIRATION SHOOT...

Three beautiful girls with an every day look to camera ready!











FEATURED INSPIRATION SHOOT {THE BOHO} PT. 3

What is there to say about part 3 but BEAUTIFUL! To me this session turned out most romantic out of all three themes. Perhaps it was the lighting that sets the tone more for me, not to mention two gorgeous models. I love the entire feel this theme portrays. When the thought of a Boho theme was mentioned I was very excited because braids are so popular currently. So to incorporate a fishtail braid in the models look was cool. The flowers are most amazing as there are no flowers in this shoot, her bouquet are all made out of plants! That was so unique and another very cool idea!!!

FEATURED INSPIRATION SHOOT {THE MOD} PT. 2

From 'The Jackie' we enter 'The Mod' and let me tell you an artist could have really gone full spectrum on this theme. Especially when you incorporate a little touch of the 21st century to it. How fun was this though to take my model who has long hair, little layering and no bangs, to a faux bob AND faux bangs. Bang out her lashes, pop the shadow on her eyes and WA-LA! Yes, it just keeps getting more and more fun!

FEATURED INSPIRATION SHOOT {THE JACKIE} Pt. 1

I always love when a photographer contacts me to work on a fun project. Brittany Cascio of Cascio Photography came up with this wonderful idea featured around one dress, and from there three amazing sessions were formulated! Fortunately for me she needed a MUHA and called upon me. I always love to do era type work and to be able to create three different looks was super fun for me. Here is part one of the three sessions that created this Inspiration Shoot.
