Makeup artist

New life in Toronto

I've visited Toronto a couple of times before. I like how similar it is to Tokyo, where I grew up. It's a city of many options, and I am happy to restart my passion here.

This is a sneak peak from a photoshoot done in our new studio.

Thank you to the awesome makeup artist, Rhia Amio, model, Agnes (Elmer Olsen Models) and the stylist, Michelle Davis, for this shoot.

Make up contest

A while ago, we collaborated with a talented MUA, Paula Lanzador, for her entry for a MUA contest. We ended up doing 4 different make up looks. Each one was a totally different theme and it was a pleasure to see such a variety in creativity.

I want to improve my retouching skills way more, but I need to accept the level that I am at right now.

Big thanks to the model, Isla Hughes and the stylist, Michelle Davis.

Hope you can enjoy the images from our shoot.

Please check out the final 4 images in my gallery page.

Winery

Today, I collaborated with Lindsay Lo, from Charles Stuart International Models and Joanne See, our makeup artist from our previous photoshoot in the cold cold forest...  Lindsay's posing skills really impressed me many times today. I highly recommend other photographers to work with her. Joanne's make up is always accurate and on point with the concept. I wish I could build a solid team with this busy lady. Many thanks to the Vancouver Urban Winery, and the wardrobe stylist, Michelle Davis. You can see the final image in my "Fashion_location" gallery.

Makeup School Shoot

The other day, I had an opportunity to work with a teacher and student makeup school in Burnaby. Everybody was collaborating to get beautiful images. I ended up taking beauty shots of eight models. Thanks so much to the make up artist, Yasmine Khan, and Daniel Mathias the International Fashion Division Director at Maijah Lewk, and all the models. More photos are coming soon to my "beauty" gallery.
