Misc.

Two models here. One playing as a school teacher and the other one as Gothic dude. Unfortunately I forgot to make the 'Before' photo of him.

Another internet film project.

IKEA Shoot

This was a project from IKEA Netherlands. It's a company interactive internet film . Collaborating here with director Andrew Crawford. This project gave me a whole new experience with interactive filming.

Here retouching make-up for actress Ching. Other examples here are Joost and Henk. You can see the rest of the my work in this project at http://www.ikea.com/ms/nl_NL/jobs/afdelingen_functies/index.html

Inge

Inge wanted to be daring for a special theme party. Here I did a 'Biker's Chick' look for her. We had a lot of laugh that evening.

Esta

My very first magazine debut, an article about some Dutch entrepeneurs. Wanda, my mentor, suggested that I do the shoot with her. It was fun and really informative. Photographer: Martin Bouwman.

Naomi

This is a project I did with director Steven Geldof of Geldof Film for internet film on http://www.helpmijnhuis.nl/. The talented Naomi played a young lady in distress. The filming was done on a green background which later was digitally imposed to different scenes.

Liza (Final Exam)

The much awaited final exam. The theme is 'Circus'. This is my finish look for my final make-up (visagie) exam. The look has been enhanced with a few more ideas. I love this look better than the test look (see also under my 'Blog Archive').

Changes has been made in the lip, and eye make-up. I used hair extension to create fullness with her hair. I also added a tulle train to the back of this corset dress. And some butterflies to the hat and the dress.

Yvonne

These shots were made in collaboration with fashion stylist Gillian and photographer Roos Kroes. Clothes: H&M. Accessories: Stylist's own. Model: Yvonne. The look here is modern woman. Structured but yet feminine. Face is clean with a flash of red lips. Hair neatly swept away from the face to accentuate the strong bone structure of the model.

Gaelle

Gaelle is half Dutch and half Colombian. She reminds me of Eva Longoria. But she is very sweet so don't expect her to be your typical Desperate Housewife. ;) Sultry brown hair and great smile. Her skintone is generally even with freckles which I adore. A little bit of concealer under the eyes and around the nose and very light foundation. I didn't want to hide her beautiful freckles. Accent is given to her eyes but her lips are muted. The rest was more about her smile.

Yara

Yara reminds me of Maria Callas in the 60's. She has that elegant face. I started with a clean base and played around with her eyes with a deep olive hue. Eyebrows neatly darkened to match her beautiful raven-black hair. Finally a touch of bright red lips to compliment the monochrome look.

Liza (Test)

This is a test make-up for my final exam look. The theme is 'Circus'. My model here is Liza. The look here is ex·ag·ger·at·ed ringmistress. I began with an evened skin as canvas. Colour scheme here is probably what you can find in a circus scene; happy colours. Her hair has been tied up in a tight chignon. This look will be enhanced later for the final exam with more ornaments.

Chani (Expressive)

Here you see Chani again. This look was my initial idea for my final make-up show. The theme was 'Moulin Rouge Goes To Space' but it the idea developed a bit too abrupt.

Playing again with Silver & Magenta. Foundation I did here was a shade lighter than her own skin tone. Silver is very dominant here to create that spacy look while the magenta spots and Swarovsky crystals portrays the flow of a comet in the space but still keeps that extravagant and glittery look of the Moulin Rouge. Her nose and cheeks has been shaded to create depth.

Finale IV

An idea about the hairdo to go with the theme. May not be final yet. :t

Finale III

The idea board (comes with an apart story-line book) and the costume with accessories.
