Fight Club shoot

 Here is a shoot I did last summer. I was asked by my friend Shawn Gordon to come help with some make-up. I did a few tattoos for this shoot and Laura Watkins assisted me with them. Shawn and I did the sleeve.
 This was Tye Nelsons project and he is also one of the models. I can't remember all of the models names. The photographer is Matt Barr. Here is a link to Tye's work

a faery


 This is my attempt to doing a Faery. I was nervous at first but it turned out better than expected. The model is Stacy and the photographer was Jay.
 She brought some wings that I had to repaint with my airbrush. The original look of the wings was not that great. This was a lot of fun and I still can't get the glitter off my clothes.

werewolf


 I was approached by Becky Costa Rockwood to do a werewolf shoot. The model is Chase Weston and I had to improvise on this one. I only had crepe hair and the cat teeth I had made for myself. I had to fit those cat dentures to Chase's teeth which worked out for the photo shoot.
 Becky's daughter is the little girl in these photos. This was a really fun shoot to do and we went on location to a few farms and fields. I saw this house that was kind of sinking in the ground that Chase could get on top of easily that was the above picture. Thank you Becky Rockwood of Little Mischievous Studios for the great experience.

Adam and Eve

 So as part of my Gods Vs. Monsters series I did an Adam and Eve shoot. Shutter Release had come and asked if I would like to do this theme and I was more than happy to. He had already talked to Paola who is the model to the left.
 I figured I would find someone to be Adam so I asked my friend Kyle. I like to go with the non traditional approach to everything I do and getting a young kid to be more cavemanish would work for this shoot.
 This was the second time I worked with Paola and I will be posting the other shoot here soon that I did with her.
I used two different size leafs for the stencil and wanted a basic shape with some coloring on it. I was going for something simple that wouldn't be too distracting.

some beauty make-up


 I just wanted to show some of the beauty make-ups I have done. These are my favorites of what I have done. The photographers are Midlight studios and MarylinC photography.
 The top 3 models are Makell, Lauren, and Kristy. They are awesome to work with. I had to get some beauty make-ups in my port because some people didn't think I could do that.
 I can't remember the name of this model to the right, I don't know if she gave me her name. It was for a demo for my friends make-up line Nature Source Mineral cosmetics. Which is the only beauty make-up I will use.
This last picture is for a jewelry line that's based out of California. MarilynC took the photos and Lauren is the model.

Aphrodite and Hephaestus


 This is the Aphrodite shoot that was postponed for a few months due to an accident. Jessi Fox and Tycen are the models. I wanted Hephaestus to look scared and dirty since he is the god of the forge.
 I wanted to do a broken marble design on Aphrodite since there are so many statues of her around the world. I can't remember who helped with the hair and make-up on her so sorry to those who helped and aren't mentioned.
Jeets took the photos and Justin helped with the scars on Tycen. These kind of shoots are always really fun during the summer. We usually have a huge bar-b-q going on during the whole thing. Thanks to everyone who was involved it was a fun experience.

ECHO & NARCISSUS


 This shoot was another one of my Gods Vs. Monsters series I am working on. Laura Watkins is the model and it was the one she wanted to do. Tycen is the model who is Narcissus. I wanted this to be a simple design and I also used stencils to get the shape of the leaves and scales.
 Travis Hoaglund is the photographer again and he brought the perfect dark mood to this shoot. The coloring of both characters where based on the fantasy element of the story. Narcissus was a water nymph and Echo was a wood nymph.
 Both models did a great job with the characters here. Echo is madly in love with a character who is more in love with himself than anything else.
