The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. - Abraham Lincoln

Lincoln was so right and I took full advantage of this day I was given!
I've been so lucky to be busy with all of my June Brides and the beautiful wedding day makeup looks I've helped create for everyone. It was fun to sprinkle in something a little different...

I was given the opportunity to step out of my "Train Case" a bit and do some fun character makeup for the June 15th edition of Style Weekly Magazine. We shot at deLux Diner & Lounge located in the historic fan district of Richmond for The 2011 Bar Guide issue. Bartender Otto Bartsch of deLux and Bandito's Burrito Lounge was a really good sport as I transformed him into a modern day Abraham Lincoln. As you can see, he looked amazing and was a lot of fun to work with.

Thanks again to everyone involved in such a fun project.
Cheers!

Belle Magazine Shoot

We just shot another issue of Belle Magazine on location at Aloft Hotel in West Broad Village, Short Pump that will hit stands in June. The makeup was fresh and light to go with the summer fashions selected by my friend and Fashion Editor Lauren Healy. I had the opportunity to work with Hair Stylist, Kate Montgomery again who I worked with on the Summer/Fall issue of VaBride Magazine that also comes out in June. As always, the fun and creativity were in full swing...another job enjoyed!
