The past two weekends have been chocker block!

Saturday 14th April, I had a great day doing makeup for a wonderful lady called Sheila. She was having a home photoshoot promoting her music website, as she teaches violin and piano. Then later in the afternoon she had a few shots taken with her daughter Zoe!

Sunday 15th April, I had a great experience of being the makeup artist of a local up and coming band called ”Switch Transmission” for their music video, which was being filmed at Fort Widley, Portsmouth. Amazing lads and an all-round amazing day – even though it was absolutely freezing that day!

Here is a sneak peak of me doing the makeup:

Here is one of the images from the day:

I had an amazing shoot with an up and coming hair salon in Havant on Sunday 11th March, where I worked on 6 stunning models. 4 females and 2 males! They all looked amazing – can’t wait to see the results!

Then on Wednesday 14th March, I had an absolute beauty come round my house for a shoot, her name is Taz Keens and the photographer was Dave Greensmith.

Dave brought round some beautiful pink roses and daises that Taz modelled beautifully with. I made her eyes fuschia pink to go with the flowers and she pulled it off perfectly!

As Taz had beautiful blue eyes, I wanted to add a slightly stronger colour to the already existing pink to make her eyes really pop, so I chose to add purple! And to make it really wacky, I even gave her purple lips!

And for our final set, we all agreed to do something totally different, weird and bright!

Dave had a search through my “Makeup Ideas” folder on my laptop and one photo really took his fancy, so I recreated it with my own personal touch to it – and my gosh, it was friggin’ hard work! May not look hard, but maaaaaan! It was trickier than I imagined!

But when it was complete - I was extremely happy with myself and Taz looked AMAZING!

What do you all think?

So I jumped at the chance! I had never organised such a big event before and I was unbelievably nervous on the night.

I managed to get us a lovely venue, the Old Customs House in Gunwharf Quays which was prefect location wise as it was close to trains, taxis, buses and even had an onsite hotel for those traveling from further afield.

Well the night arrived and once everyone started turning up, I’d never seen so many people! It was Crazy!

All in all I think it was a Great Success!

I managed to get us 2 rooms all to ourselves and that wasn’t even enough at the end of the night. We were all crammed in like hot sardines! Ha-ha! So everyone started leaking out into the corridors.

Considering this was my first ever attempt at doing anything like this, I am so happy with myself and I’ve never had so many handshakes, hugs and kisses in my life! I don’t think I sat down for more than 5 minutes at a time – it was crazy!

It was a fantastic night, I got to see many faces I already knew and many that I didn’t – so a very successful networking meeting! I was told my turn out was even bigger than the last London Social – How mad is that!

So my final conclusion is that I’m definitely going to be hosting another in the near future! Next one is in the planning for Summer time 2012!

What this space people.

I’ve had a few offers in my make-up work, which is great! So at the moment, I have two weddings booked, a 40th birthday party and a family photoshoot!

Who knows…? I could get more offers yet, its only February!

One other Very interesting opportunity came up for me last weekend – I went to a casting to hopefully be an extra in the up and coming Hollywood film “Les Miserable” acting alongside Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway – just to name a few…

As well as modelling and make-up, acting is a very big passion of mine and I would love to be picked as part of the cast. So pray for me people!

I’m up against thousands and I really am hoping they see something special in me.

Just need to wait and see now…
