Yay! After much blood, sweat, and tears I am pleased to announce that my tv commercials – ads where I have done hair and makeup have “officially” aired.
The job was with Sockeye Productions and the client was Albertina Kerr.
The director was the awesome James Westby and I was so excited to finally get the chance to with such an amazing director. Check out the footage!!!

I have been working with one of my favorite photographers,Pete Springer for a few years now and my new agency has not been very fond of any of the beauty shots taken. Today things changed. They not only liked the beauty shots but actually added them to my file. My agent feels I have much stronger images in my port but I was pleased she finally saw some redemptive stuff from this photographer.
These are some shots of a girl named Haydn. She has just signed with an “agency” here in town. I say that in quotes because the “agency” is not a real agency and charges a ton of money to get started. I was sad when I heard her mom tell me all the stories they told this girl and all the promises they made that will never happen.

Needless to say, these images are a huge improvement over ones in the past and I was delighted to have them added to my file. I would so love to see this photographer succeed and if not here, then somewhere else.

I have been doing tons of headshots the last few weeks and have been enjoying the process. I worked with a photographer friend of mine, Pete Springer, a few weeks ago and we were both excited to work with this model from Mode. She’s african american which delighted me since I desperately need women of color in my book.
Since she was from Mode, I expected her to walk in and deliver her “A Game” meaning some stellar modeling. Not so much…. Even though we changed hair and makeup repeatedly, we basically got one look for the whole day. I was so disappointed to say the least…
Here’s the best photo of the day!

So one of the photographers I work with, Pete Springer, showed me a new photo editing program he has. You select an image and you mark the main features and then the program basically uses an algorithm and changes to the face to meet society’s conception of “beauty.” I was amazed when I saw it in action and promptly sent over my picture to be analyzed.
The program didn’t make too many changes… it basically spaced my eyes a little further apart and gave me a more rounded chin. I didn’t notice much change in my nose which is my least favorite feature I might add. I was pleased it didn’t touch my lips or my eye shape. It did, however, get a little crazy on the skin smoothing.
Check out the pics…
This is "before"
This is "after"
Apparently, another program is soon to follow that will do the same thing with the body. We will all then be able to have longer, thinner legs and bigger breasts… all with just a click.
I’m not sure what I think of it to be honest… a little eerie. Isn’t it our individuality, our unique features, what makes us beautiful? Are we really all supposed to look “perfect” like dolls? I don’t think so…

HI Everyone
It has been a long time since my last post on here…I have been so busy. I have made a lot of changes to Blush Premier Makeup Artists in the last 6 months. Specifically, the biggest change is that I assumed sole proprietorship of the company and have since added on a team of brilliantly talented artists and hair stylists. They are each amazing people and incredibly gifted in their fields. I feel honored to have them aboard.
I have also been blessed enough to meet up with some very talented photographers from the LA area who have decided to mentor me and help bring my skills and abilities to a whole new level. I am so lucky to have their input in my life and in my profession.
Let me introduce you to my new team….
Arienne White (first photo) is an amazing makeup artist and hair stylist, Julie Ruckman (2nd photo) is a gifted hair stylist, Sunny Fire is wonderful mua, and Nanette Marx (4th image) is new to the makeup side but has been doing incredible hair for years.

I did a test shoot last month with a new photographer and I finally received the images today. I will often do a test shoot for TFP (trade for print) with a new photographer so that we can “try each other out.” Sometimes it turns out fabulously and I’m thrilled, other times, I get the images back and (sigh) I’m just sad. There has even been the occasion where the photography was so bad that I couldn’t use a single image. Luckily, this time that was not the case.
Overall, a majority of these images turned out well. The photographer is just starting out, kind of getting his legs so to speak. The model is a sweet girl who dabbles in modeling for fun. She was really nice and easy to work with. She was also very petite…5 foot 2 to be exact which is tiny in the modeling world.
We met on the river in downtown Portland and I brought my new kit…in a shoulder bag. That would have been fine if we had done makeup in one location. What I didn’t realize is that we were going to walk along the majority of the river and back for our shoot. I think we were all worn from packing our/my stuff!
Here are some of the better pics:
I did both makeup and hair which is a nice change. I’m not so confident in my ability to do hair so this was a good chance to practice and play. All I had with me was some clips and hairspray. Not bad if I do say so myself.
The photographer, Chris from Intelligent Designs, loves to play with angles. I really like some of his ideas but I didn’t care for a few of these pics. The concept was cool but I don’t think they ended up showing the best of the model or of the photographer.
Overall, I’m pleased with this shoot and with my images. Anything that expands my portfolio and stretches me to be a better artist is what I’m going for.
