Just Another Girl That Wants To Rule The World

Here are my favorite shots from this shoot I did with my girl, Beatrice Neumann.



Look for the shoot in the new issue of YRB magazine.

She Hangs Brightly

Benefit's It Stick is a great concealer, but I've found a new use for it!


Try using it as an eyeliner to line the inner lid.  It makes your eyes look big and bright without the retro look of a white eye liner.

Littlest Things

Sorry to have disappeared for a bit!  The loss of Paul Starr really knocked the wind out of my sails, but I am looking forward now.  Paul's memorial service was so inspirational.  I left there wanting to be a better make up artist, a better friend, and most of all, a better person.  So... as Paul would want it... onward and upward!  

I had the absolute pleasure of making up Lily Allen for the September issue of Paper magazine!  She's always fun and wants to do creative stuff with her look!  We ate some In n Out burger (obviously) and listened to great music (I even got to hear some of her new stuff which is AMAZING!)...  





The amazing Dan Monick was the picture taker, and Johnny Stuntz was the hair do-er. :)

A Fond Farewell

Today the world is a little less beautiful.  I am devastated that a hero and mentor of mine, Paul Starr, has died.  In my brief time assisting Paul, I learned so much.  He was always so kind and so supportive of me.  I would not be where I am today without him.  He has been an inspiration to me since day one and he will be so extremely missed.  I know he is in heaven making all the angels look fabulous.  We love you Paul.

Soon

I did the covers of this months Althernative Press magazine with Phil Mucci, but I also did this great piece for the mag with actress Sarah Wright from the new movie House Bunny.  



We got to go to this cool Karaoke bar in Korea Town. It didn't seem much like work...

But what's EVEN COOLER, is that my fiance's band is featured in the same magazine!


Crazy!!!

Dirty Boots

I did this cool shoot with Chris Fortuna out in Ventura.  Everything was going great until I saw a snake. I love the way the photos came out. Chris rocks.

Slow Hands

I was working with my friend Claire and she decided she wanted to paint her nails blue...  I never realized how many different shades of blue nail varnish I own!


I'm totally going to copy that.
