Boxes.

Boy.

Every so often you'll come across one with a face incomparable to even the most beautiful girl.

These are stills from Georgia's film, which present profiles of different characters. The teaser for the film will be coming very soon, i need a stronger internet connection to load said art work!

Face Paint.

Like real full coverage make up. Face altering stuff. With Naomi on photography and with Nikki as my face.

I love the way Naomi put's the editorial together on her site. Gypsy, mystic, but still very wholesome: www.naomi-james.com

The glowing ball of cosmic light is my ikea lamp.

Red Bull.

Sarah Young's Red Bulls music class of 2010 (with stylist Sarah Young) This was a three day project i embarked on earler this year. It was a style meets music collaboration with the following artists:

Mistajam (BBC Radio One DJ)
Roses Gabor (Artist)
Toddla T (UK producer)
Redlight (UK producer)
Swindle (UK producer)
Jammer (MC)
J2k (MC)
Donaeo (Artist)
Mz Bratt (Female MC)

The make up for Roses was based around a 1960's white graphic eye (to compliment her futuristic black and white catsuit) and Mz Brattz had a very slick glamorous classic eye with a liner and red lips. The guys all (rather resentfully) had all the basic grooming. It was a really laid back enjoyable three days (and this is also where i meet Geogria!) Sarah's styling was outlandish and very high end, which was new to some of the artist, but they all embraced it with great enthusiasm. I was taken a back by how these people, who all front what could be argued to be an aggressive and intimidating music sceen, were quite possibly the most polite and friendly people i have ever worked with.

And I'll post the pics when there out of course!

Moving pictures.

Sorry, I know I said 'tomorrow' in my last post, but anyways here it is!

Georgia.

Georgia's studio is right next to the Peckham Rye station, I've been looking at it every time i got of the train from Victoria for 15 odd years. And so now I've been testing in it with Georgia Hudson. Georgia makes beautiful, original and enticing films for fashion and art. This is just a small snippet of a film i did the make-up for back in September. Films going up tomorrow, and there will be much more to come from the studio over looking the station very soon.

Autumn.

Summer is over and its time to settle down and work. These images are from the summer, but i only just found them hiding in my inbox! They were from a day back in July shooting for Sketchbook in Kingly court. Styling by Auk Anurak Homme, and Photography by my favorite girl to ever hold a camera Naomi James (so talented its quite frankly starting to annoy me!!)

And so here it is. The first Blog entry that signifies the start of serious work as I have now left Uni and am entering the real world.

Testing Peckham.

Me Naomi and Holly test out my dad's studio as a possible shoot location, which would be especially usefull when the winter comes round again. The one one with the sickeningly short legs in my friend Nikki. Make-up: Artificial freckles and clean skin!

5am.

So I'm shooting with Naomi and she casualy throws in that were meeting in Waterloo at 4.30am. I'm slightly taken aback, because that is actualy kind of still night time, but I trust her completly and jumped on the 171 at 3.30. I meet Naomi, Auk and Camila at the London eye at 5am and we begin. Early mornings are amazing, they make you feel really smug, like your in a secret 'pretty sceenery' club, just you a drunk man and a very enthusiastic jogger.

The light was beautiful, and we had the whole of the Southbank to areselves. My make-up for Camila was glossy/ grunngy, and her hair (all her own!) was windswept and messy.

I had an insane caffine high and then completley crashed at 10am. The other three were fine I'm just pathetic. I love these pictures and will be doing the early morning thing again very soon.

This is alot of words for me sorry about spelling etc!

Blog Therapy.

Soon to be my business card.

Preview

Preview of me and Daniel's mug shot creation (that started life as 'fashion suck') here are three simple head shots of characters, Bitch, Guilt and Slut. Plenty more to come including the mug shots, group shot and videos so massively, massively keep watching this space.

A Productive Thursday Morning.

Katie, Naomi and I hit the streets again, looking to create a few images for Katie's current project for LCC. Here are some of the images, there may be more to come. Katie crimped her own hair, so I won't be taking credit for that! Katies make-up is the kind I love the most, heavy, editorial and edging ever so slightly on the side or drag queen. Naomi makes the most of an empty street in south east london, I know I've been banging on about this alot of recent but she really is a genius. Katie is so tiny we managed to fit her in a box at one point, utterly adorable.

Glossy Faces.

Glossy and finished. These are Kristin's Bunny ears, I want a pair.

The Hottest Day Of The Year

Hand back over to Naomi James who's pictorial skill really made this shoot. I also love the bleach effect and colour of Katies (this is Katie Snooks my hot model who's also a photographer too) hair against the backdrop of such a beautiful day. This was meant to be a conituation of Put It On but rather turned into a thing of its own!
