Angels and Demons.

DEMONS

TodayI spent the afternoon doing two of the things I love most.....makeup and photography.

The picture above is one of my favourite shots of Daneeka from today. I think maybe my favourite from all of them today. Below is one of my favourite shots of Jamie. Some others are further down in this post.

ANGELS

Now for those of you who dont know me very well, I am in the beauty industry and have done makeup professionally for about 20 years. I am also lucky in that I have a sister who is a hairdresser so she came along today to do the hairstyling for me.......a job she did perfectly.

I was wanting to shoot two very different models. One who was to be all dark and scary. Kind of demonic and evil looking. The other I wanted a beautiful, etheral look. Bright and pretty yet still kinda funky.

The models were 2 lovely young girls who work with me in my business. Thankyou to Daneeka, who is my dark demonic creation and also one of the therapists in my centre. the picture below is straight after I had done the makeup. We were still waiting on my sister getting to the shop to do their hair. I LOVE these contact lenses!.....scary scary stuff.

Thanks also to Jamie who is my bright, beautiful creation and also my work experience student.

Some of her shots are below. She was made for black and white pictures I think....or it could just be the fact I love black and white pictures!

It is so much easier to do this when you have models who will happily let you turn them into anything and will put up with contact lenses, glitter in their eyes and lipgloss in their eyebrows!

So, once again, thankyou girls.

There were many great photos but I will try to not put up too many. I would love to know what you all think.....that is if anyone actually reads my blog!

Finally I also took a few shots of them together.....I wanted an agels and demons look to it and as it turns out the girls didnt let me down. I like the shot and how completely opposite they look.
