Sneak peak at The English Department's 2012 look book shoot

I had the privilege to work with the ever lovely Elizabeth Dye of The English Department again yesterday. She is so much fun and I'm always excited to be a part of her projects. Hopefully I'll be able to get my hands on some of the images when they are finished but here are a few behind the scenes instagram shots, courtesy of Lisa Warninger, our photographer extraordinaire! Hair and makeup, yours truly.

Kerry Herta Workshop

I have been brimming with excitement for Emmy nominated makeup artist Kerry Herta's workshop taking place here in Portland. Tomorrow will be the first of a five day stint going over all things makeup. I look forward to updating this blog with the new things I will be learning! I'm also looking forward to building new friendships within the makeup community; I can't wait to see who will be in the workshop with me.

For now, check her blog, Beat Around the Brush, and website for information on Kerry as well as her workshops. Don't worry if you are missing this workshop! I missed her the last time she was in town and odds are good you'll be able to take the opportunity to learn from her on her next trip through.
