Yana’s Brithday Bash

/1 Comment/in , /by

My friend Lizzy dropped me an IM asking me if I wanted to do a photo shoot with a friend of hers. Yana tuned 14 earlier this summer and Lizzy said she was really into fashion and photography. She dreamed of doing a photo shoot some day. Lizzy thought it was a good idea to give Yana a photo shoot for her birthday.

So together with stylist and makeup artist Nadia, we set out to give Yana the best birthday gift ever.  And even though Yana had never been in front of a camera before she came to my studio, she rocked the set. Here’s some of the incredible results from our collaboration.

I really have to thank Yana for modeling for me, and Lizzy and Nadia for their awesome work in preparing and executing the shoot.

Model for a Day Shui

Shui is a fellow Springsteen fan and a fellow photographer. We bump in to each other at concerts a couple of times a year and sometimes shoot side-by-side. A couple of months ago, she said she really liked my model photography and she asked if I would want to do a photo shoot with her.

After My friend Elem was done with makeup, we went ahead and shot these beautiful portraits:

Friends in Latex

Remember last month’s posts about shooting lingerie with Shannety and Kyara? Well, since I had both ladies in the studio together, I asked them to do a quick session together in latex. We found matching dresses in my collection: Kyara is wearing a dress by House of Harlot, Shannety is wearing one of her favorite dresses from Kinkykex. Makeup by Elem again.

When Lizzy came to my studio last September, she brought along an amazing makeup artist and stylist, Nadia Janssens. Nadia styled Lizzy in this very fashionable outfit she got from MOOD-S. It didn’t take us very long to shoot these stunning photos of Lizzy.

Meet Fernand, aka Ferre. He’s an English bulldog, about 9 months old now. He is best buddies with his owner Shannety. And Shannety is so fond of him, she wanted a photo shoot with him. So we set out for a little walk and shoot at the Turnhout Begijnhof.

Ballet Heels with Carol-Ann

/0 Comments/in , /by

I met Carol-Ann about 10 years ago at a networking event for photographers and models. We did a shoot back then, but had since then not worked together. But we though it would be cool to work together again after all those years and a shoot with ballet heels in the spotlight seemed like a good plan.

Lingerie Shoot with Kyara

Yesterday I posted about a lingerie shoot with Shannety. I mentioned that she brought a friend. This is Kyara. It was our 1st collaboration together and it sure was fun. I look forward to working with Kyara again: she’s a very nice person and she has the most amazing hips…

Makeup by the immaculate Elem.

Lingerie Shoot with Shannety

I had a lingerie shoot with Shannety a couple of months back. And she brought a friend. I will share those pictures tomorrow, but for now, the attention is on Shannety. Next to wearing her preferred lingerie, she wore a harness and feathered epaulettes by Lovechild Boudior and her make up was done by Elem.

There’s nothing wrong with combining latex fashion with regular clothes. It’s a combination you more and more in mainstream media and even on the catwalk of fashion shows of haute couture designers. And if they can do it, so can I. I had my muse Shannety in the studio earlier this year and we shot cool portraits.

The make up for this photo shoot was done by my dear friend and make up artist Elem. Latex fashion by William Wilde, Marquis and Mico Couture Latex.

I have this cute little portrait of Shannety that I wanted to share with you all today. It was just too cute to not share.

Shannety’s beautiful make up was done by Elem.
