Location Photo-Shoot

One of my favorite models Chi Chi was returning to London for a quick visit. We had been chatting via facebook and decided to combine a catch up with a photo-shoot. I had been to the Excel a lot and loved the surrounding areas looking over the river and city scape. This would be a great place for the new collection to be photographed. I contacted make up artist Cassandra and we set a date.

Unfortunately on the day Chi Chi could not stay for long. We met at the multi-story car park and decided sitting in the car would be a good place to do hair and make up. When shooting on location any where can become your dressing room! As time was not on our side, the top layer on the car park seemed a perfect place to shoot. We managed to do hair and make up in 30 minutes, then shoot four outfits in 45 minutes! It was a rush but having such a great team every thing came together and I am so pleased with the images.

Professional Beauty Show - Excel London

I had been speaking with make up artist Anastasia Asenka via the site Model Mayhem. Ana had entered the Professional Beauty Show competition and wanted to use one of my designs. The competition involved styling a model from outfit to hair and make up. The theme for the show was 'Runway'.

It was a great day. The arena was full of stands selling a range of beauty products from nails to tanning systems. It was a great surprise to find out Katie Price's make up artist Gary Cockerill was judging the competition. We didn't win but Ana got great results for her choice of model and outfit.

New Collection Experimentation

For the new collection I really want to use different fabrics and techniques to what I have used before. Leather strips are going to be used heavily so I wanted to experiment on the stand with bondage style wrapping. Here's just a quick picture to show what I've started :)

New Website

After a lot of planning and experimenting the new website is finally on line and finished!

So here is it: www.stephaniedemelzab.com
