TGIF

I have a feeling this weekend is gonna be THIS awesome! To kick it off, I have a photo shoot bright and early with some of my favorite ladies over at www.newbrahmin.com. From what I gather from the mood boards our painfully talented photographer Gillian Bowling put together, it's gonna be off the hook! Liana Krupp will be on the 1's and 2's styling treasures from Parrish Relics and Amanda Gordon (Model Club)will be our impeccable model. I'm on hair and make up and promise to take pics behind the scenes so you can see all the nitty gritty we get into. After the shoot, I'm off to NYC for a weekend of pre b-day celebrating. This will include but is not limited to Mexican festivities, nail beautification, brunch with my NYC peeps, the company of technological greatness and a field trip to Canal St in Chinatown to find the perfect hoop earrings. Sunday morning I head back super early to Boston for a shoot with designer Maya Luz (Project Runway), Jackie Puwalski (my partner in crime and fashion photographer), Jeri Evan (Maggie Models), and if I'm not mistaken,the uber talented hair stylist Yas Kosaka. Ready, set...

Unicorns...derrr

Just to make things clear, I love unicorns. My mind is currently brainstorming ideas on unicorn inspired make up. Stay tuned, glitter is in order!

more STUFF!!!


These pics are from STUFF's latest issue, Gems that Rock and the shoot showcased these gorgeous pieces of jewelry. I kept the make up sexy but minimal to maintain focus on the beautiful baubles. I especially love the tiny lizard brooch encrusted with diamonds. I would crawl under a rock and get dirty for that amphibian for sure!



Spring, time for new STUFF







It occurred to me today that I had a long lost blog. This is my blog. I hadn't posted anything in years and what I had posted was pretty lack luster. I deleted stale information in order to start over and rise above mediocrity. It's Spring now and time for rebirth. I feel like a tiny chick covered in new goo, ready to take on the world. Ok, well I guess I'll start with Boston and New York.

I've been working like crazy collaborating with some of my favorite creative allies to produce visually delicious images for my book. I'm super inspired to continue my life long dream of beautifying the world and high five-ing like a champ. Here are a few images that I'm proud to say have recently been published in STUFF Magazine in Boston.
