Birds for Birds

Following the success of the 2011 Puppy Love charity calendar
www.PuppyLove.ie, the idea was hatched to
create something similar to raise some much needed funds for Woodlands
Falconry. 
“Birds for Birds” is a fundraiser in aid of Woodlands Falconry and Bird of Prey
Centre to help them continue their good work. Woodlands Falconry and Bird of Prey Centre houses a large variety of raptors, which cost over a hundred euro a week to feed and maintain. The centre is run
mainly by voluntary help and generally takes in enough profit weekly to cover
the cost of their bills and specialised raptor food, but bad weather conditions as
well as the rehabilitation work they do for wild injured Birds of Prey has drawn
heavily on available resources.
So the organizers of Birds for Birds Calender asked talented fashion photographer Maik Sinkovec to submit a month for the charity so i joined him in beautiful Co.Wicklow to provide hair for the shot.  Joined by the beautiful Maja Stina also the brains behind Burning Violet Latex Clothing the shot really came together, but you wont see it here, you will have to go out and get a copy of the calender when it hits newsstands soon...

Call Marta Foto

I have started on a new series of shots with the talented and very good friend Marta Trzeciak of callmarta foto. Although I cant say much to give away what exactly is going on with this series but the beginning stages have started and the series is on its way.  We will be working hard on this one for the next few months, so if you don't hear from me I am busy hiding away in Marta's studio, doing what i do best...

Mime's

Look at me staying on track!!!! Spent the afternoon in Dublin with the fantastic Peter Buckley Photography for a mime shoot with talented make up artist Nina Whitt.  Black Swan Persona and Raissa came along as models.  I created some wild head pieces for the shoot and with all that white make up, the girls really came together, great group effort.  Here are the final images...

And again for a visit with Jason McDonald Digital Photography for another Pin up shoot but this time with a little twist.  MUA and model CosmAddict Make Up and the beauty Trisha Leslie teamed up for a zombie inspired pin-up shoot. With a few hours in make up and roller sets from the night before, the girls were the most glamorous dead girls in town.  Special thanks to Baby Doll Boutique Dublin for the lovely corsets.  And here are the images...
