See the full gallery on Posterous

I know, I know. This is story came out in May. I'm a little late in posting. Thing is, it's been busy here in Toronto, not jut for me, but thankfully for most artists & photographers. It is our 'busy season' after all. So, better late than never right?

The great hair work here was created by hair guru Justin German of Shagg Salon and shot by one of Canada's top fashion photographers, Chris Nicholls.

Love, love, love the opening hair cut. If I wasn't hidin' so much with my long locks, I'd chop it off to match!;)

Models:

Kat Cameron, Elmer Olsen Models

Rochelle T, Next Canada

Sasha Barns, Spot 6 Management

Quo 10th Anniversary Couture Collection

I'm a little late in posting as the special edition line is almost run it's course, but here is my latest work with Quo Cosmetics for their 10th anniversay Couture Collection.

I've been working with Quo since I helped launch the line across Canada 10 years ago and I'm mighty proud to still be working with such a great Canadian, cruelty free line.

Those that know me know I L.O.V.E. their brushes and from this collection, you really should check out the Face Palette in Rosey Outlook and their Perfect Polish in Bliss, a stunning shimmery teal.

Beautiful Breanna of Elmer Olsen Models was photographed by one of my favourite photographers, John van der Shilden who also shot Tribal Invasion and Divas Sport. Photo assistant, digi tech and all around amazing man on our shoot was Paolo Cristante.

The new look of Sears, part deux

Here is the stunning result of our 'Film Noir' shoot with the lovely Tamara shot by Gabor Jurina

for Attitude's Fall 2010 Collection.

If I hadn't fallen for this old trick about a thousand times before, I would be heading straight to Sears for a little retail therapy. I mean look at her... she looks stunning in that dress! But I know better. I've spent hundreds of dollars purchasing items I've seen models wear on set and no matter who makes 'em, they never look the same on me. Why is that? Wait.. don't answer!

The new look of Sears

Here is my latest advert for the Sears' Jessica line. Not the Sears of old is it? That's because Sears have teamed up with Fashion Magazine and fashion photographer Chris Nicholls to produce these modern advetorials. Smart no?

Just look at Breanna in that red dress... Sears has never looked so good!
