Cosmic Models


I recently had a meeting at Cosmic Models in London. I am now one of their oficial test photographers which is a treat. They have a full database of MUA's Stylists and Hairstylists (BONUS). I now have 2 test shoots next week, its going to be awesome and crazy!

Also wanted to share this beauty portrait of Carolina Leite that God knows why I didnt publish it before. Its stunning (In my opinion).

Have a nice day and I'll keep updated!

Next stop - COLORS

So, Iv got this session booked for the 2nd of feb. SUPER excited about it. Got 2 amazing girls (models). Close up's, very colorful. A MUA called Samia contacted me for this shoot. She had no concept , no idea but wanted to work with me. She does a completely different style of makeup, Arab makeup, which means big, bright, in your face! I was flattered. Have worked with her before and thought this would be a challenge. I then opened up my "inspirations" file and prioritized beauty portraits (as always) and thought: How can I mix beauty , which is quite plane and simple with fresh bright make up?...

After a week, I came up with this:

Its a mix of the last Miu Miu campaign with MAC beauty shots (colors colors colors!!!). Agency sent me a lovely blond girl called Maria. On that same day, this beautiful swedish model called Elaine sent me an e-mail wanting to cooperate. She was stunning and I immediately said yes. The two of them have completely different looks and I'm so looking fwd to this. I think this will be the cherry on top of my cake, in other words, the perfect ending to the new beginning that is my new portfolio!Hehe

I will obviously post one of the images as soon as edited and hope to have good critique (or bad, they're the ones that make you grow).

See you soon!
