September
We recently got together with Amanda, a trained vocalist, musicain and singer with an ABBA tribute band 'The Abbarettes', to do a promo shoot.

With the help of makeup artist Claire Kay, Amanda was able to transform herself from 'girl-nextdoor' to 'sophisticated lady' and to 'vamp-punk' with ease. Astonishingly, the weather changed to compliment each mode, making it a perfect day for the shoot. You can see on one of the photographs while Clair is 'punking-up' Amandas makeup, it is pouring with rain and Jeany is holding a light reflecter over her to keep her dry. Poor Amanda had to change outfits on the spot, rain or shine - what a pro! A terrific shoot.
