Important: I believe in giving credit where it is due.
I give credit to each contributing party for every photograph I post anywhere. If you do not have the same philosophy, then we probably shouldn't work together.

"There is a good principle, which has created order, light and man; and a bad principle, which has created chaos, darkness and woman." -Pythagoras

My main motive is Makeup Artistry for the expressive outlet, which I pair up with Hair Styling and Wardrobe Design to round out the Model and Photographer in me.

I'm always open to new ideas, jobs, and styles. If you think you can challenge me I'd love to talk to you.

I pride myself on giving people a good experience with getting their Hair & Makeup done. Many people can find this nerve racking and an annoying experience- after all, someone is really in your face, and space. I work with the way a models face expresses emotion, and it's relaxed shape to enhance natural beauty and make their greatest assets pop. [It's just a bonus that I promise you won't look like you just came out of a porn movie... unless that's what you ask for!]
