My entry in the CLEO Make up competition
When my gorgeous friend Katy sent me the link to the ‘CLEO Make Me a Make Up Artist Competition’ I was immediately excited. I had been wanting to shoot my friend Sonia for a while now and this was the perfect excuse.
Sonia is blessed with an amazing look but I don’t think she realises it. This was my chance to show her that she’s photogenic and that modelling is actually quite fun (yes I know it’s hard work as well but you can’t say it’s not fun at the same time).
We spent an afternoon doing two different looks, we could have done more but the light was fading and we wanted to use natural light. I hope you like what we created, leave a comment if you’d like to give us feedback.
Thank you Sonia and thank you Katy, you ladies are top notch x
