October 2012 Theme: 1700 Masquerade Ball. These gorgeous models rocked it last night but the true star was my makeup and hair artist M.J. Butler. http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=659891253 If she can do 5 models hair and makeup this amazing just think of what she can do with your hair.
Book an apt with her! She is FABULOUS! ~ read below for all the kudos!
Melodie~her hair was too short to get that era's style so she was wearing a wig. It was so gorgeous you would have never known! We went out in the street for a few pics and some people asked if they could take a picture with her. They were from Alaska. Melodie did look like a famous star!
Sandy~ Owner of The Off Broadway Theatre. She let us shoot on stage at her theatre and just take over the building. She is amazing! She was my little china doll. You have to check out her theatre and improv shows. They are so funny and witty! http://www.facebook.com/theobt1994

Kiera~ She has natural curly hair and is 6'1". Her high and poofy hair was fabulous! She came all the way from Snow collage after doing finals all this week. What a sweetheart! She went outside with Mike and I can't wait to see what he did without me. Check out his work too. http://www.facebook.com/#!/michaelbatemanphotography


Scott~ His wife signed him up for this gig and he had some fabulous hair. He was hesitant to be in make up and a "funny" costume but I heard he went home and said it was fun and he would do it again! Love this guy. He is a contractor and helped with my studio. Hire him for all your construction needs. He rocks! http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=1483660353 He had an idea and wanted a picture with just all the ladies!
Good thing his wife was in the audience watching! :)

Brandon~ He came to hang out with Melodie and ended up being part of the shoot. Eric (Sandy's husband and owner of the theatre) had to leave and I was short a model. So Brandon stepped up (but wouldn't shave!) and gave his own idea for a mask.

And of course, Our fun silly out-takes.
Last but not least a great big thanks to Michael Bateman for sticking with me throughout all my craziness! He is the best! Light King. Second hand man. Oil boy. You name it! He does it for me! Oh wait, he also takes some amazing photos himself.

M.J. Butler for all your hard work on this project alone! She was stuck doing this whole thing alone about 15 mins. before the shoot. She stepped up and handled the pressure wonderfully! Not to mention her creations were AMAZING!
I can't wait to continue working with her on all my projects.
Sandy and Eric Jensen for letting me shoot in their theatre and take over the place.

All the models and families for the support and patience they show me as my anxiety comes out with perfection with each shoot. I couldn't do it without great supporters!
