Just a peak of some of the gorgeous shots we achieved during our photoshoot the other week showcasing the work of Anita Davies and Sam Cross. More can be found on Rachel Spivey Photograher site.

As you can see Veronica went from girl next door to showgirl (and everything in between) without batting an eyelid! She’s a natural and totally beautiful. Inside and out! Would love to work with her again. Note to would be models: Working with a good attitude like Veronica’s will get you far. Kind, gracious and calm (she had a lot of make-up and clothes changes to do in a very short space of time and not once was she flustered) Kudos!

As for working with Rachel Spivey, never again! hahhaah. No I’m joking!!! I love this woman. She’s just ace to work with. Totally great at communicating what she wants and also letting the model do her thing and the make-up artist (moi) create look upon look.

We did miss vintage hairstylist, Jeni Aldridge, though and their was a point I was faffing with some hair pieces for the last look I was wishing Jeni was there. Jeni creates amazing hair styles (some can be seen on Rachel’s site) and I really hope she’s with us on the next shoot.  It’s nice to say yes I can do hair, but it’s nicer to actually focus just on the make-up as that’s my forte. It makes it all more balanced.

I’m looking forward to seeing these on Anita Davies’s site (it’s being revamped to include the jewellery). I can vouch for their beauty!

I would like to thank Rachel for giving me a chance to prove my worth as a make-up artist and to hopefully continue to work for her again x lots.

I’m happy that everyone got the shots they wanted.

Go and have a look at more fine pictures on Rachel’s site.

P.S There was a few shots where Veronica was rocking an ASOS dress. She was very keen to tell me when she put it on, very proudly, ‘This is from ASOS’ hahah. Bless her!
