Claire + Jacquelyn Michelle = Photo Shoot Magic

This is Jacquelyn. Jacquelyn does not take a bad picture, like, ever.

Somehow I managed to steal this beauty for a few hours of hair, makeup and posing for photos. We had possibly way too much fun being ridiculously girlie girls and feeding off each other's high energy. It was also great to know that I can be the photographer in a pinch~

At 5'11," with features like an elven, magical being, Tara is an aspiring model whom I have the privilege to work with regularly. She has become my new canvas for hair, makeup and creative ideas. Not only is she a beautiful, she is possibly the most kind hearted person I have ever met. She is always down for whatever look I want to try and any pose I put her in. 

Book her!!

Oh hello! As many of you know, I'm diving into the world of makeup artistry as more than just a hobby. The above video is the result of a nice experiment of creating a fake wound from scratch on my very tolerant friend's face. If you would like to see the making of the wound, stay tuned as I shall upload a video in a few days.

For now, enjoy this lovely SFX in action of me putting nails and a needle through my friend, Bernard's face. My bestie, Reginald was kind enough to film this whole process for me and provide amazing commentary which had me laughing the whole time. Thank you guys-- you rock!

Enjoy the pictures too!!! (No Models or Bernards were harmed in the making of the SFX makeup job)
