Model: Alexandra (Corestone Model Management)

Originally this shoot was going to be called Almost Famous, inspired by my all time favorite movie starring Kate Hudson, Billy Crudup and Phillip Seymour Hoffman. After seeing this epic film, I became obsessed with the music and fashion of the 60's--buying YES cd's and aviator glasses...I know...a bit much. So when I got the opportunity to style a 60's shoot, I jumped on it and automatically thought of the Queen St. bar the Cameron House for the location. This live music hot spot has a great stage, where I have seen many a band perform as I proclaimed that I myself was their Penny Lane, ornate furniture, and an amazingly colorful painted brick exterior. While 60's was the intention, I was led astray while shopping. The 60's style still rings through, but their is a very strong all american look enhanced all the more by the red, white and blue paint that adorns the Cameron House exterior. A special thanks to the boys who run the Cameron House!

CROSS YOUR HEART

Screen Goddess: My Blue Angel








Stylist: Vanessa Stein, Photographer: Sabrina Rossi
Hair: Amanda, Makeup: Kate Mackinnon, Model: Brooke

This shoot was inspired by the 1930's, specifically the classic style of Marlene Dietrich who was best known for wearing menswear suiting while remaining feminine, strong and sexy. Not only was wardrobe used to transform the model into a 30's icon, but a great technique of erasing her natural eyebrows in order to create a thin and more arched 30's look was used by our great makeup artist Kate Mackinnon. This was a great shoot to play with layering garments and adding witty accessories like sailor bow ties and an array of hats.
