More wedding make-up!

A few beautiful brides from 2008. Here, Alicia, Sarah, Lindsey, and Melissa work it for barebonephoto photographer, Emma Smallbone.

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!

Green Gala 08

November 8th brought Fashion Takes Action to agencyVert (formerly Green Beauty). Our full crew was assembled and yours truly was Key Hair. Since this was a very eco-friendly event we weren't allowed using hot tools (electricity!). This was a bit of a shock to the celebs who were walking in the show but we made it work beautifully. For the models I designed the hair around the fish-tail braid. I also roped front sections and intertwined them with the long fish-tail. The direction was more sleek since the models wore cool headpieces designed by Lori-Anne Krausewitz (LA Krause Headwear).
