As you may have seen we have been posting a lot of our work to Flickr. Please check out our recent stuff at http://www.flickr.com/photos/insomniaart/sets.
We have busy in the last few months working with some awesome talent, although sometimes by happy accident. We had Nikita Kiceluk of Canada'a next top model fame fill in for us after a model no-show on Myst. Odessa was franticly calling models and our crazy cool makeup artist Joanne Black rang Nikita and she just happened to be a few minutes away. She was in studio in two shakes of a lambs tail and rocking Holly Irwin's (Dusted Rose Designs) period inspired togs in the fog. Thanks Nikita!
Another great place to find some incredible talent is apparently in elevators. On our last fashion shoot "Rainbow", one of our modelling twins got very ill and had to be hospitalized the night before. We found out that morning and again, Odessa springs to action, like she does so well, rousting the ever-so-striking Cayley Turnbull out of bed. Meanwhile Lisa Dawson, our MUA that day had trouble getting up the elevator so when Odessa went to collect her... the incomparable Alizee Paradis just happened to be in the same elevator, coming home after being on the Breakfast Show. Two great models in 10 minutes...a new record for recruiting at Insomnia Art!
Odessa and I are very excited and happy about how everything is turning out here at Insomnia Art and feel very lucky to be working with the extremely talented Joanne Black (MUA) and Jessika Morin (Hair Stylist).
We have lots more to come in the next few weeks. The "Rainbow" series is in post, we are getting our high impact shots to complete "Startled" with always alluring Aura Alexandra on Saturday, the "Tea Party" is ready to go for next weekend with a wicked spray painted background by Lee-Anne Kennedy.....and we have a contorted shoe shoot coming up....
