Sometimes you just get lucky.
I got email a few months ago from photographer Michael Yates asking me if I was available for an agency test. Yes Please! It is a real pleasure working with agency girls (usually), and the pictures from that shoot remain the first two pages in my portfolio.Yates called upon me again - only this time with a girl he wanted to throw in to a high fashion editorial. Jenya - the doll. She doesn’t look like a conventional model - she reminds me of friends I adore from my punk rock/hardcore influenced circle of friends, without the anti-social stigma. All week I have been awaiting the results, with teaser shots here and there. Today was the day! I am so excited to share these…

A few KEY products I used for her eyes:
Clinique Cream Liner in True Black, MAC Eyeshadow in Pincurl, MAC Shadestick in Sharkskin, Clinique Superfine Liner for Brows in Deep Brown
I made the edging of the winged liner with a super fine angled brush.
We transformed Jenya into a fierce high fashion piece of art, and she worked it out.
