My First Video Shoot: Too Quick by Zeus Irons

Sneak Peek: Ypsilanti Photo Shoot
Sorry I’ve been MIA lately guys! I’ve been doing some traveling for the last three weekends which has really interfered with my regular blogging schedule but no worries I’ll be back on track soon!
I did get a chance to squeeze in a quick photo shoot between trips! Here’s a little behind the scenes sneak peek of the look I did on my model, Sarah.
I also stole a preview of a edited shot from the photographer’s instagram! Can’t wait to get the final images!
Also special thanks to everyone who entered my Mehron Pressed Pigment Palette Giveaway! I hope I’ll be able to do more in the future!
Photo Shoot: Lillie Park, Ann Arbor
A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to work with a local photographer on a beautiful outdoor photo shoot. I love the way the images came out so I just had to share them with you all. I hadn’t worked on any shoots in a while because I’ve been so busy with other projects but it was really fun to get back out there!

Whew! University of Michigan EnspiRED Fashion Show
I know. I know. It’s been sooo long since I’ve been able to blog. My personal life has been cray! between Work, family, boyfriend, && grad school applications, I’m beat. I’m also in the process of moving and had to pack up all of my cosmetics :-((( for the next few weeks so you probably wont be seeing any new looks anytime soon. I’ve got a few small hauls I need to post but I’m a slacker so hey.
Anywho on to the point, last month I unexpectedly had the privilege of doing makeup for the EnspiRED Fashion Show at the University of Michigan. I had a really good time but didn’t get to take a lot of pictures for the blog because I had to do 38 girls in 11 hours BY MYSELF! ONE MUA! ONE BRUSH! BY MYSELF! **Kevin Hart voice** It was a ton of work, I was super tired & covered in glitter by the end of the day but it was an awesome experience. I’ve done big shows before but I usually work with other MUAs but due to some last minute conflicts I was the only MUA that could make it to the show. I’ve never worked on so many different faces in one day && it definitely was a learning experience for me!
Luckily they hired an awesome photographer and I was able to get a few shots of the ladies!
