Calling all Models!! 
I am proud to announce a new premium service COUTURE DU JOUR.

This is a chance to really live out your modeling fantasies, or for professional models to add something to their portfolio that is totally unique. On a Couture Du Jour shoot you will work with myself a photographer and a second makeup artist/stylist to create a one of a kind temporary wardrobe assembled DURING the shoot and then shot for your fashion portfolio!

This is a premium service and is not for everyone, it's something special to treat yourself to, or to give your fashion book that extra special kick!  Please visit the Couture DuJuor page on my top friends for more information and rates. 





My passion is creating characters either high fashion or theatrical.  I have a strong awareness of detail and love to create specialized concepts to enrich portfolios.  I am only interested in TFP that is interesting, well thought out, artistic and will add to my portfolio.

I am always interested in good, artistic conversation!  So hit me up, Let's Chat!!

Reviews:

" Lauren was excellent to work with! She took clients advice and delivered exactly what was asked, with of course her great artistic vision. She was extremely friendly and fun and very considerate of her models. After my experience with Lauren I'm sad to have to work with any other MUA's and hairstylists. I would definately recommend her to any and all photographers to hire her. We couldn't have done it without her. Models who need to improve their shots, she is the go to girl. She's great with knowledge of each model individual strengths and weaknesses and knows what to work with to make the best of the shot. Besides being the perfect combination of being excellent with hair AS well as make-up, you really can't go wrong with her." - Model: International Assassin
