Take Possession...

Here are a few pics from the film, "Take Possession" that I worked on recently with Nicole Patterson Hair and Makeup. This is her design for the zombie/creature in the film. I went down to Ft. Myers last Saturday with Nicole to help shave some time off on hair and makeup so they could start the filming earlier. Nicole hand made the latex-based fingers that you see on the creature, and the model also has two foam-latex appliances attached to her face around the eyes to give her an even creepier effect. It was a really fun night of shooting out in an old abandoned cabin in the woods, very creepy, and it should make for an awesome final product! :-)

Flash Out Makeup and Photography

For a while now, I have wanted to open my own studio... just recently I decided that what I really wanted was the creative freedom to be able to 'create' art on people's faces, without being limited to what I could do. I also LOVE to make everyday people feel as gorgeous as the supermodel's of the world. Earlier this summer, I met photographer, Stephanie Curnutte, of Curnutte Photography LLC and we began to brainstorm ideas for what we could offer together. Out of these late night conversations, our sister company, Flash Out Makeup and Photography was born. A place where we both had the creative freedom to work and create our art, but also a place where we could offer makeup, hair, gorgeous photography, styling and more all at the same time to all different ranges of people. The pictures shown here are from our first joint shoot as a company and they feature the stunning model, Miss Katie Levith!! There will be much more to come from Flash Out in the future so stay tuned and I will keep everyone up to date here! :-)

Intoducing... The Fabulous Wendy Starkand

I recently had the pleasure of meeting accomplished stage actress, Wendy Starkand recently. For Wendy, we did some basic 'clean' makeup and styling to make her look as camera-ready and natural as we could to come up with some outstanding head shots for her to use for her upcoming auditions. Wendy can be found on stage performing at many Tampa area venues, and is an extremely talented musical theater performer. Her true personality shined through while we were working out in Plant City and she turned on her charming personality for my camera. Make sure to check her out in some of her upcoming roles,which I will post and keep you all up to date on where you can find her next!!
