D Mag

Wednesday 25th January

Dalston Heights was the location for this shoot I was assisting Georgina Graham on for D Mag.  It's a great building for shooting, but absolutely freezing!  The windows are open even when they are 'closed', and no amount of heaters can manage to heat the space up, so if you are going to shoot there then take lots of layers!  There were 5 models, 3 girls and two boys, and Georgina created amazing conceptual looks using white Chromacake by Mac Cosmetics, Face and Body Foundation and not much else.  She took her inspiration from the clothes, which had a Sailor feel to them.  One girl had a white face, another girl had white on her forehead, one boy had a graphic blue shape around his eye.  Georgina is the Queen of doing fast make-ups and this shoot showed just how simple but effective make-up can be.
