The Style Box

This shot is for The Style Box - the fashion-baby of agent, Gail McInnis (4th from left) and actress, Amanda Brugel (5th from left). For more information on their innovative and stylish venture visit http://www.thestylebox.ca/.

The shoot was very cool. I had the honour of working with Alice Kilpatrick, esteemed makeup artist. The clothes were extraordinary and the style team got to pull inspiration from classic beauties such as Audrey Hepburn, Sophia Loren, and Elizabeth Taylor.

Recent and upcoming

I forgot to mention that a few weeks ago I worked with the picture, Adam, starring Hugh Dancy. Rose Byrne, and directed by Max Mayer. I did the grooming for the men. The day was similar to most press days - tv interviews in the morning, and print in the afternoon.

It was an early start, but done by 1...just enough time to get home and do a hair and makeup trial for this Saturday's bride, Karen.

I will post photos of both Hugh and Max, and Karen too soon!

More Fox Searchlight

Last month I worked with Chucky Klapow, the choreographer for all three High School Musical movies. He had a few television interviews at a dance studio downtown. He taught the hosts of SunTV and the Family Channel moves from HSM3, with me in the wings trying to learn some new party moves!

In early March I accompanied Bob Baker (master puppeteer) and his assistant on the 70th Anniversary of Pinnochio tour. Bob's stories were insane - from working with Judy Garland and Walt Disney, to performing in front of Bette Davis when he was young. Plus, I think this 85 year old found the fountain of youth - he didn't look a day over 65!

Canadian Film Centre


For the past 4 years I have done make-up & hair for the annual CFC Gala. This year Eugene Levy hosted the event and Jasmine Richards (singer/actress) performed.

The event was beautiful and raised money to support the arts!

Miss March

Zach Cregger & Trevor Moore were in town promoting their movie, Miss March, which is in theatres in .....March. I did their hair and make-up for the day. If I gave out awards to the people who's make-up I have done they would get the "Tallest Actors" award!
