While in the process of putting a few random photos and videos up for friends to see and I figured my “Makeup is Art” readers were considered friends as well, right? I mean, in the past 3 1/2 weeks you have seen this blog from it’s first post ever to over 360+ dedicated subscribers, not to mention over 1,000′s of individual views, not a small feat being that my last blog had all of 13 loyal and awesome readers!
So for that, I thank you and consider you a friend! Now that we are best of pals, I have decided to bring you some photos and very informal behind-the-scenes videos of the last shoot I did with my husband, photographer Luis Aragon this past weekend. This shoot was for a handful of Elite’s NY runway girls. NYC F/W09 Fashion Week is right around the corner so the girls are getting their books geared up for those designer castings. We wish them the best of luck!
On another note, I am always in love with the wonderful clothes stylist David Widjaja pulls for us on these shoots, including the infamous green Louis Vuitton dress Madonna is wearing on the front of Louis Vuitton’s website as we speak. Let’s see how fashion savvy my readers are. Let me know if you recognize anything. I know I had to be told 1/2 the time who designed what, but I’m getting there!

We stuck with a very natural makeup palette and hair look with just a pop of color on the lips or blush on some sets. The models, the legs, and the clothes, were the main focus so I wanted to keep thing fairly simple as to not compete with the overall look. I can not wait until Fashion Week rolls around and I will definitely put up more photos once the finals have been chosen.
Oh and one more video so I can feel like this post is more makeup/hair related…here is what my hair/makeup kit looks like when it spontaneously combusts by the last shot of the day, which ironically is of Angela Martini. The “Martini Shot” is an old Hollywood term used to describe, you guessed it, the last shot set up of the day!
P.S. If the videos aren’t showing up in the Feed Readers, I’m sorry. Just click on the title to head to my actual site. I just noticed it as I was checking through the other pages I follow. My bad!

Well, I can’t speak for all shoots many are extremely glam, especially when set in the Tropics, out at sea, etc. etc. It is always more glam with great editing and Fegie singing the “Sex and the City” movie theme song over the behind the scenes videos too. hah!
I love how photoshoot locations are never glam but the photos always look so.
