make up class

Yesterday my sister, Shasta, and I took a makeup class by Paula Dahlberg. It was an amazing class packed full of information on face, eyes, brows, & lip shapes. We learned the history of makeup and the different ingeredance in the cosmetic products. After the theory section, we had the chance to do a natural look & an avant garde look on models that had their hair done by Steven Robertson and they shot with Jake Garn & Ryan Muirhead. It was so much fun to watch the whole process take place and see my work on film! I learned a lot but I think the biggest thing for me was feeling more comfortable with what I do.
I'll soon be getting the photos back and I'll post them on here as soon as possible

Photo Shoot

Today I did a photo shoot with Mitch Meyer for IN magazine. The photos will be used to advertise for IN's Fashion Night Out on November 6, 2010. I did the hair and Gorgeous Jared did the makeup and helped with styling. We had two models from Fresh Clothing. I loved being on location with the models and playing around with things outside my box. I'm use to very natural looks and this was bright and sassy! I'm loving working side by side with Jared to pick his brain on all this editorial stuff!
Good things are coming and I'll post pictures as soon as possible!

Exciting News!!

Today I was asked if I would like to take on my own part in IN Mag's Fashion Night Out on Nov. 6, 2010. They are choosing one stylist from a few different salons to create a look for 8 models that will represent a local boutique in Salt Lake. I will be shooting an editorial shot with a well known photographer named Mitch Myers and have my look published in IN Magazine. Then, the night of Fashion Night Out, I will build a team of stylist that I want to work with to help me achieve my look for the fashion show... This is all exciting news for me! It's exactly where I'd like to see my career headed! I will keep everyone posted!
Thanks for letting me express  my exciting news...

pondering some new ideas...

Dear followers,

I would like to offer just a bit more than a few random pictures here and there... I think I might start to blog a little about my weeks in the hair world. Talking about new ideas I have, hair news, or anything I think is exciting in my world. I have a million thoughts everyday about my career and I figure this is a great way to express them, help improve my page, and help education...

Today, my topic is make up... A new topic for me, and I'm loving everything I've been learning in this field! I took my first make up class a year ago from Paula Dalhberg and I will be attending a more in depth class on Oct. 25th.  I've been doing more wedding stuff and a few editorial work, but this is going to give me the chance to do two different styles of photo shoots. I'll be spending my whole day learning the history of make up, all the ingredients, face,eye & lip shapes, and a lot more! We'll have 2 models that will be shot by Jake Garn. I'm excited to build my portfolio and get as much knowledge as I possibly can for my clients!

I will keep everyone posted on my class!
