Mantini Jewellery Shoot

One of the advantages of having a little brother who is a renowned photographer (brag brag) is that sometimes I get to have some fun on a shoot with him. Recently he was assigned to do some photography for Mantini Jewellery and required a makeup artist for the models he had to photograph.

Because the models hired differed in style, I was required to think and create differently for each of them. Also, because the photographs were close up and very sharp, I needed to be very fastidious about the details. I needed to ensure colour balance, that there were no clumpy eyelashes, the symmetry was correct and the lipstick didn't bleed. All in a day's work, really!

Here are some of the images from that shoot.
