American Beauties Calendar shoot

Last week started a project of shooting for the American Beauties Calendar. It is a "motorcycles with beautiful models" calendar.
I was asked to join the group as makeup artist by Kim @   http://www.bigpawphoto.com/ Since I have worked with her before, of course I said yes. Tiffany DeWald is doing hair on the shoot when possible & I stand in for her when needed.
Some shots not being used in the calendar, but beautiful none the less

The calendar will be available for pre-sale in the near future. More to follow!

Tiffany Dewald Syracuse Hair Stylist joins forces with A-List Artistry

I am pleased to announce a new collaboration with Tiffany Dewald, master hair stylist. Tiffany & I have worked together on several projects over the last year and I find her professionalism & style to be outstanding. We spent 5 months working on designing & creating makeup & hair for the METANOIA project with Kelly Bogan. Spending 9 hour days together on a film set lets you see what a person's true personality & work ethic. Tiffany did an amazing job. 

 

Tiffany is one of Syracuse's "in demand" wedding hair stylists as well. We are working together on numerous bridal parties in Syracuse & throughout the Upstate NY area. Choosing a makeup artist & hair stylist that work well together and collaborate can make any wedding day or photo/film shoot a better experience.

Tiffany also shares my love of philanthropy. She was a stylist for the Ophelia's Place fashion show & was on the ARTISTS for AIDS team this year as well.  Look for us to continue that volunteering spirit in future events.
