I am happy to share that my picture “Shadow Queen” was recently featured in Dark Beauty Magazine. I have been following their social media feeds for the last year and I love all the creativity that is show cased by them. Thank you to everyone that liked, shared and commented on this piece. I am always happy to hear from you and know that my work has brought a little bit of magic to your day.
Recently I was inspired to try playing with bold colours and dark shades. I think it came out well. Anna as always was a great model and made my ideas come to life.
Looking forward to more of these creatives! ❤❤❤ (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧

With summer just around the corner and the weather finally getting warmer I decided it was time to get out of the studio and shoot outdoors! 🙂
This very natural shoot was inspired by the beautiful bohemian Anna. Hope to shoot more of these looks now that she’s visiting Toronto from far away Russia.
I recently did a shoot with Lauren and wanted to share the results of some very simple PS tricks.
I’ve been using PS since the year 2000 and over the years it has changed how I look at beauty and photography in general. I believe that perfection doesn’t exist, instead our uniqueness should define us and attract us to each other.
Commercial photography has very defined ideas about beauty and many people outside of the editing community don’t realize how Photoshop can change digital images. Never trust the pictures you see in magazines 😛 We can all look like that if we had a PS pro process our images.
Ask yourself: Why would you want to look like everyone else? Embrace your beauty ❤ Strive to be the best and healthiest version of you!
Let me know what you think 🙂

Had a great time shooting a beauty look with the beautiful half European half African model Kubota. We also shot a creative look that day which should be coming up shortly 🙂
