'Twister' promo shoot with St Andrews based Photographer Gillian Gamble

Recently I was asked to provide hair and make up for one half of the Perth-based band 'Twister'. The sun came out and Gillian managed to obtain some fantastic images at St Andrews Beach and other local locations and I enjoyed meeting Leah and Stew.

Dundee's Victoria & Albert Museum

Last week I was hired to work with Green Room films who are based in Edinburgh who were producing a short ad promoting Dundee. 'The View', the Science Research centre and the Law Hill also feature and very surprisingly I was asked to be an extra!The Director was Peter Richardson and the Producer was Lou Kiddier. I had a brilliant day filming at the 'Vision' Building in Dundee with the crew and Niall who was to be Kengo Kuma who created the winning architectural design. As Niall was at least 20 years younger than Kengo I had to age him to approximately 50 years old and everyone was pleased with the result.
"Reliable, hardworking and a talented make-up artist, who stays till the bitter end! A pleasure to work with and would highly recommend". - Lou Kiddier (Producer, Green Room Films).

Apex Hotel Wedding Fair Video



















I had a fantastic time creating the hair and makeup for the models at the Apex Hotel Bridal Fair. Click on the image above to see a video from the event.

In January I worked with the Refet Afrique team and Kayhan Photography on a creative photoshoot in St Andrews.

Airbrush Makeup
I now offer an airbrush makeup service to achieve an even more flawless finish. Airbrush makeup is like laying a soft veil over the skin and it tricks the camera into believing it's skin, not makeup. Once reserved for professional use behind-the-scenes on film, television, and fashion shoots; Brides in particular are looking more towards airbrush makeup to look their very best. It last for up to 18 hours with no touch ups and is smudge and sweatproof (handy when you're up close and personal!)

Drop me a line for more details.
