SOME OF MY BEAUTIFUL BRIDES

WINNER OF WEDDING EXPO COMPETITION

A big congratulations to the winner of our Hil Cook  "Win a wedding hair and make-up" for your big day

My Fabulous business partner Ange and I ran a booth in the Wellington Wedding expo which was a highly successful event and whilst into our second day we held a competition for a hair and makeup package to the value of $450.00 for all you lovely people who are about to get hitched.

The lucky lady,  Shelly, was totally over the moon to hear her good fortune.  She is getting married on September the 19th this year so we will keep you all informed as to how it all goes and hopefully post some fab pictures  of the day

For those of you that didn't manage to get to the wedding expo, I just have to show you our booth.

I just wanted a place that was incredibly lush and girly that just invited you to come in and sit down but with a little edgy twist to it. Hence the French powder room was created and how it went off!!! everyone loved it.

Thanks to everyone that participated and entered our competition.

MODERN TWIGGY FOR VOON

I just did a fabulous shoot for designer SOPHIE VOON and what fun we had!

Sophie is an incredibly talented woman totally true to herself.  She has an amazing flair for mixing beautiful vintage style fabrics and looks with modern to create a complete unique look of her own.  Sophie has a huge dedicated client base that just keeps coming back for more and more.  She also has  an amazing knack of coming up with incredibly different themes that she bases her collections on each season.... 

Check out our gorgeous model Jess whom I have re- invented her as the infamous" Twiggy" from the 60s modelling a sneak peak of the up n coming collection from Voon.

WOW FACTOR MAKE-UP FOR THE BENDON LAUNCH

Wellingtons latest and slickest store launched its opening with a glamorous red carpet event.

I was asked to design wow factor make-up for our beautiful lingerie models and had my wonderful "Hil Cook" team to help with application on the day.  I chose this gorgeous geisha girl look with a modern day twist to it.  I wanted to portray a beautiful airbrushed look but at the same time it needed to be mimicking extoic textile silks and satins to compliment the stunning garments. 

The event went off with a bang with most of New Zealands A listers being present and a wonderful night of expensive bubbles to finish!
