Introducing Grace Powell

So its been a little while since I've done a post, but I've been a little busy of late!
However we did get to do a shoot with the lovely Grace Powell the other week and I've only had time now to update you guys on the shoot! :)

This shoot was shot with Nick Shek as photographer and Philip Wong as the photographers assistant and Amy as MUA/Hair and me as the stylist.
Grace is very young but we wanted to create a look which looked fresh and summery without making her look too young.
Heres what we came up with:

This is the first look that we came up with. The playsuit is from a small market stall in Hong Kong and as is the denim Jacket! The wedges are the models own and the belt is from Bershka. The outfit is a mix of random things just thrown together which worked really well.
Initially we styled this outfit without the belt but found that it lacked a little something with the belt we created this look! Hope you enjoy!

As for the make up we kept it very natural with some greens and a very natural complexion with a little blush.
I came up with the idea for fish plaits for the hair as it reminds me of summer and youngness. Everything was kept simple so that the focus could be on the model.

Look 2

For this look we originally actually styled it with wedges but when we were walking through the dene to this doorway there were a lot of nettles and prickly things so Grace changed into her uggs. We thought that the work looked so did a couple of shots with the uggs!
As for the t shirt and the shorts, I was originally going to put her in a pair of darker denim shorts with a white tank top but then she showed up with these and I had that t shirt which made outfit number 2!
As for the hair and make up we darkened it up a little still keeping it looking quite natural. We took the plait out backbrushed it a little and put the had on her! and Voila look number 2!

Here's what it looked like with the Wedges
The day wasnt the nicest of days being very rainy and a little damp and clammy it wasn't very warm either so grace had a jacket with her
It was a fur jacket that she just happen to have, when she threw it on with this look it worked well and we kept it on for a couple of shots heres the picture

We got to an old church after the Dene and went for one final look which was to be a little darker and a little more mature.
This look actually came from Nick and Grace themselves we changed the make up and the hair up by making the eyes darker and the hair well... you can see for yourselves...

I really love these pictures and proves that with some subtle changes in make up and clothing you can totally change your whole look with minimal effort!
Hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them!
