Photo Shoot w/Tom Kim and Model Misty Rose

Another successful and fun shoot in downtown LA today!  Beauty was NOT the topic of this theme, the photographer wanted to go for more of an underground reality type feel..

We actually went around the city looking for homeless people to photograph with but didn't find any that were "suitable".  The model was very outgoing and friendly.  She was up for just about anything, very easy to work with and we all had a lot of fun!

This was my first time doing bruise and dirt makeup...it was interesting because I could be as sloppy as I want and not care if the liner isn't perfect or if the eyeshadow had some fall out. 
I didn't have to use any special makeup, just a few different eyeshadow colors for the bruise and darker foundation with dark loose powder for the dirt effect.

Photoshoot with Photographer D.W. Kim and Model Iris Rocha

Just finished one of my first Beauty/Glamour photoshoots last night.  It was a small little group, just me, the photog, model, and her escort.  The photog actually does jewelry photography full time, but wanted to take some beauty shots for fun.  He took over 600 photos and gave them all to me!  It took a while to sort through all of them, but I think everyone did a great job considering how we are all fairly new to this.
The model, Iris, is actually a full time RN ~! Imagine having her take your temperature!

Here are a few of my favorites!


Makeup that I used for the shoot:

- Graftobian HD foundation
- NYX shadow pencils and eyeshadow
- Face Atelier eyeshadow pencil
- Graftobian eyeliner pencil
- Bobby Brown bronzer
- La Femme Blush
- Smashbox lip palette
- NYX finishing powder
