*****Hi Everyone! Just wanted to give a general notice that I am, indeed, still booking work etc. :-) ...I've been away for a bit because I was just plain swamped (working 7 days/week, then I was horribly ill for a couple months- mono relapse, yikes!). Now things are settling a bit so I will be sure to be more active once again. Miss you all, talk to you real soon!!!******
I am interested in working with models of all ages, types, and looks! I specialize in portfolio diversification/expansion, natural looks, and use of bold color (art pieces, high fashion, and "urban"/street fashion looks). I am not a "one look' type of artist- I take skin/eye/hair color into great consideration before beginning, and usually adjust the look per outfit as well.
I used to work for a talent management company, and was responsible for reviewing photoshoots, choosing headshots, and putting together composite cards. So please let me know if I can be of assistance in that area as well!
I am also skilled in special effects makeup artistry (in particular: aging tecniques and gore- such as bruising/wounds/scars/disfigurement- i.e. an artificial broken nose) and would love to do a TFCD shoot to add these images to my portfolio...a little unusual, but I'm up for it if you are! :-)
I take a lot of pride in making my models feel comfortable- with everything! I see their time in my chair as a little break between shoots, and/or a warm-up before the first camera click....this can be a nerve-racking time, and I understand that! I am generally quite talkative, and enjoy discussing everyday life as well as modeling/makeup/industry- whatever floats your boat! :-)
It's very important to me that parents/chaperones of minors are comfortable as well. I am more than happy to discuss absolutly everything I am doing/plan to do/want to do with any parent/accompanying adult! I don't even mind parents literally watching over my shoulder at all- as long as you don't create a shadow over the model's face so I can't see what I'm doing, physically get in my or my brushes way, or continue to ask your child so many questions that they end up not being able to sit relatively still for me. ;-P I joke, but do take my model's comfort seriously...and simply ask that you do as well!
Here is a recent comment from a mom: Hi Christina! Wanted to say thanks so much for working with us on the shoot that day. You were so nice
your makeup was great
and we definitely would love to work with you again. (model's name) really liked you!
I can assist with hair and wardrobe/style as well. My hair styling skills are somewhat limited (i.e. no formal training) which is why I offer to "assist" rather than be responsible for the total look. But I'm happy to do what I can!
Models I have had the pleasure to work with (* denotes each time worked with if more than once): Saraa (OMP# 372654) * Alyssa (OMP# 387566) * Melanie (OMP# 124963) Emily (OMP# 403039) Katelynn (OMP# 405055) Jennifer S. (OMP# 409692)
Photographers I have had the pleasure to work with (* denotes each time worked with if more than once): Alan, Oblique Photo Randy Gerdes, Gerdes Images (OMP# 192072) * Michael Savage, Savage Photography (OMP# 54931) Lou DiGesare (OMP# 3399)
