I think it's been rather a long while since I've done a photo-shoot related post, so here we go. This serves mainly to remind you that I actually do work and don't just spend my time jet-setting to far-flung places and being generally amazeballs. A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of shooting the actor Marios Demetriou for the upcoming issue of Omikron Magazine. It was a fun shoot as we got to be really random and outlandish and not the usual pretty/styley/perfect/posey. I had two lovely friends helping me out as extra's, and they got into character so well, as did Marios who took to his villainous role with exceptional ease. I was also blown away by my make up artist of the day, Crystal Michael, who I had the pleasure of working with for the first time. She really brought the characters to life and complemented the styling perfectly. Also, I found a giraffe. So that was cool too. 

Hope you enjoy the pics and check out the full shoot in the next Omikron

clearly, I'm banana's

happy monday lovely peoples. I hope everyone is recovered from a weekend of banana debauchery (or any other kind).
I have come away from this weekend with two very important lessons; one being that I think it is time that I actually seriously give my drinking habit a bit of a break, I mean, as fun as it is - waking up and not remembering half of the night has become a slight worry. And two, when wearing a huge inflatable banana on your head, try your best not to smack too many people with it, as inevitably someone will get pissed enough to rip it off your head and throw it into the crowd (if anyone has any information as to WHO that douchelord was, please come forward, I am very sad to no longer have my banana headpiece!)
So for anyone confused as to the banana references, the highlight of this weekend was an Afro-Banana party. And from what I remember (not much) and what I was told (too much), I had an awesome time! (as I'm hoping everyone else did, be a bit awkward otherwise).
