Behind the scenes on a Glamour Magazine shoot

In the November issue of UK Glamour magazine I did the make-up and hair for a shoot with Timberland and  the make-up for a shoot with Calvin Klein, hair by Choccy.
See pictures from behind the scenes below. The Calvin Klein shoot was shot on location in a beautiful location house in Camber Sands, it was the hottest day of the year it felt like we were working in Spain not England.  The Timberland shoot was shot on location again this time in Camden, a minibus was our base for styling.  See how rain was created for the shot!  The official tearsheets can be seen on my website

October Update!

I hate winter it is official but thankfully October has been relatively mild and sunny in parts so it is not all bad, plus we have just booked our belated honeymoon to Mauritius so we have that to look forward to before Christmas which will be here before we know it!

The wedding season has started to slow down after the crazy summer whirlwind of fabulous weddings I was lucky enough to be involved in.  I have now had time to catch up on the admin' that has been piling up and recharge my batteries a little!

I love Christmas and am very organised this year I have made two Christmas puddings and a Christmas cake.  I have also already started the Christmas shopping and gift wrapping already!

My Macmillan coffee morning held at the beginning of the month raised £281.00 which I am thrilled about.

Below are some of my pictures from October.

March Update

March has been very busy!  I have had shoots for magazine's including 'Glamour', shot in a studio in London and 'Bon Marche' shot on location in Margate.  A day spent shooting website and advertising images for Asquith Yoga also in a London studio. I have been lucky enough to work with a few celeb's this month too including Adam Hills, Jerry Hall, Michael Parkinson (he had his own Make-up artist), Kevin McCloud, and Professor Brian Cox.. As well as a lot of wedding trials, wedding make up's, special occasion make up's and make-up lessons. Phew!  I am definitely ready for an early Easter break!

For Mothers day I took my fabulous mum for a lovely champagne afternoon tea at Sopwell house followed by some shopping in St Albans.  It has been absolutely freezing and unbelievably we have had yet more snow at the end of March, so lots of cold winter walks with my doggies who absolutely love the snow and a lot of film nights this month snuggled in the warm by the fire.

Easter is going to be spent decorating as for the first time in year's I actually do not have any work booked in so I will be happily swapping my make-up brushes for paintbrushes!
