Calling all hairdressers!
Yesterday I had the pleasure of working with a brilliant creative team to put forward some images for the L’oreal Colour Trophy in 2015.
I was asked by photographer Amanda Thomas to do the makeup, I have worked with Amanda before on various high end fashion and celebrity shoots and I love working with her as she nails it every time plus we share the same sense of humour which I think is always important!
The hair team was the wonderful Central Studio in Bristol. I have worked with Zoe, the salon manager before at a beautiful wedding in the Brecon Beacons so it was great to work with her again.
The male and female models were supplied by Gingersnap and both had incredibly strong looks. Of course the focus was on the hair and the makeup had to enhance yet not overtake the general look so the main thing you see in the image is the beautiful hair. The male model had simple grooming to go with his stunning Norwegian blond quiff. The female model had a face to die for and we wanted a smoky yet soft and striking look to go with her gorgeous new hair do. I got one behind the scenes shot – as it’s for a competition I couldn’t take too many snaps and give too much away!
I can’t wait to see if we get through to the next round!
