Just arrived home after assisting the very talented key makeup artist Anya De Tobon on Minimarket's fashion show in Copenhagen.

It was a wonderful show and I met some very nice and truly generous people I hope to meet and work with again.

Now it's time for bed. Photo shoot tomorrow morning!

Hi folks,

Finally I'm on my summer vacation and will be spending it reading books in the sun and just have a good time with my family and friends.

We have had a tropic summer here in Sweden and we have made some very nice photo shoots. You will see them in various magazines within a few mounths or so.

First up is the fashion story made by the young photographer Jenni Porkka in Contributor Magazine.

Have a look at the editorial page here on my site :)

At this shoot I did both makeup and hair. The theme was wet look and it was so much fun to work with this talented team.

Our fashion story  End of Sunrise is out in stores in the lovely SVA Magazine!

You can also see the story with layout in my editorial portfolio.

The fashion film End of Sunrise can now be seen at SVA in Motion

 

 

End of Sunrise is a futuristic fashion film inspired by the earth's doom theories and the transience of all things,
with influences from punk and 1700s romanticism.
This is the last warrior's story.
