Backstage Omikron

Hitting the streets tomorrow is the latest issue of Omikron magazine, featuring a cover story we shot of the actress Elia Ioannidou. It was nice to do a pretty shoot with some of the new spring collections. oh so bright! oh so floral! oh so not my style! but oh well, it can't all be vomgirl related ey?

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

Sorry for being somewhat of a slack-alice lately, got caught up in wedding-ing, weekend shenanigans and whatnot. But you know, I have to experience things in order to be able to have some sort of excitement to write about, no?
The main highlight of late was being the maid of honour for my lovely ladyfriend Tania. I am no good with churches and priests, and weddings and tears... I'm good at the drinking and dancing portion of the evening so I did ok then... but I was a bit of a nervous mess until the booze started flowing. Especially as I had many awkwardly hilarious tasks to perform that I was unawares of... like dancing round the bride to a room full of people. Yeah I looked like a tit. But it was awesome. I also managed to behave somewhat normalsaucely in the church, which took a great deal of restraint on my part, especially when I was forced to embellish the truth about being baptised to the priest (I thought the church would burst into flames). But all went relatively dramz free, which was awesome. And the party was great- dancing round barefoot like a little child is always fun.

Me dancing round like a tit

The happy couple and parents!

Barefoot dancing like a tit. 

The rest of the weekend was sun-filled and fancy-free, my tan is getting pretty epic already considering it is only May (biggest benefit of living on a sunny island)  

Roof tanning madness

Little ladybird friend that attacked me on the beach!

That would be my posey suntan face. 

And as I haven't actually uploaded many of my finished shoots, but rather just silly behind the scenes shots, here are some of my latest Cosmopolitan editorials -

aaaaand we're back

Hola kitties, how goes it in the miserable weather? What a bummer having an awesome bank holiday yesterday, only for it to be shrouded in dust (dussst, bit of dusssttt?) clouds, and no hint of beach time. Even bigger bummer, waking up today to rain, rain, and oh what's that...some more rain. Don't get me wrong, I like me some moody weather, but it is not in the slightest bit conducive to my working day. It isn't exactly fun to tramp around from shop to shop while getting soaked, carrying a million bags and getting sprayed by careless drivers. Oh well, let's look at some happier times - This is my April

ohhhhhh so cuttte

Ok must go, wine is calling out to me..."shona" it's saying, "shona, come drink me, I've missed you so much, you've been neglecting me of late and we need to rectify the situation" (in a French accent)

Peace&Love
