It Is SEVERE Up In Here!

I got this chicken mask from work a few days

ago and I thought I'd do another fun shoot, 

and soon after decided it's a definite when

I watched season 2 of RuPaul's Drag Race

where Raven & Jessica Wild dressed up as

chickens.

THEN, I watched a make up tutorial

by one of my favourite drag queens Willam

Belli where he did eyeshadow in what he called a

dirty sunset and really wanted to incorporate that

in my shoot.

The result, was severity!

I then grabbed the chicken mask and make those

roosters clock the mug, twice, and do an Alyssa!

Channeling

I came up with the name as I was doing the #shotophoot,

listening to drag music. As soon as I done my blush, I

screamed out loud, "I am giving you Ongina, I am giving you

Manila Luzon, I am giving you Alyssa Edwards, I am giving you

Jinkx Monsoon, I am giving you Latrice Royale, I am giving Nina

Flowers, I am giving you Pandora Boxx..." And then it hit me.. 

"I am giving you Dorian Kyle!"

Gay Magik

Here is the full shoot for Gay Magik

[Preview Post] Gay Magik

Came home from work with absolutely no idea

what theme to follow, but a shoot I wanted/needed

to do. I think I've become comfortable acknowleding

the fact that the whole process of a shotophoot soothes

me, helps me escape from my stress & reality for a while. 

So I grab the first thing I find in my bathroom and went with

it. And so the idea came to realise: Gay Magik:

He Ate My Heart /Bleeding Love

This is the second part of the two piece shoot

where the theme starts kicking in. Within this second-part-shoot 

is also a two piece shoot, with the first part being

inspired by a piece renowned make up artist Mathu Andersen 

did. 

Here is the piece I used as inspiration:

And this is the outcome, which I call 'He Ate My Heart':

I then decided to spice it up even more. I have had the idea

to do a sequel of sorts of the zombie shoot I did, but not in the

theme of zombie as much as I wanted to use the fake blood again.

I then thought of tears of blood. When this idea of recreating the

Mathu piece, I knew what do with the blood...

This portion is therefor called 'Bleeding Love':

[Mini Post] ***Flaws & All

This is in fact a two piece shoot, as I had a concept

shoot in mind, but also wanted to put emphasis on

my contouring & highlighting skills, so I decided to

split the shoot up. 

This part, as I mentioned, deals with the contouring/highligting,

hence the name ***Flaws & All. 

 

Eye See You [first for the year]

Would of done this in the last few days of 2013

but got caught up in the festivities, and sticking on

eye for eye can be pretty time consuming. 

So here is Eye See You:

Celebration

Happy New Year everyone!!!

[Preview Post] Celebration

Because I didn't do a shoot for Christmas, I decided

to do a New Year's themed shoot instead. 

I will be posting the full shoot 10minutes to twelve Southern

African Time. ;D
