Sponsored shoot: Van Cleef and Arpels + Chloe for Haya MBC Magazine!

What a great birthday present!!!

Worked on a fabulous shoot for Van Cleef & Arpels and Chloe....styled together! It was for Haya MBC Magazine. And the best part, it was art directed by me!!! I was very happy to work closely with the PR and marketing reps here in the Middle East, and to use their recent collection pieces in an outstanding editorial.

One of my fav's

A shot on the screen

Shot in the Cigar room at the Address Hotel Marina in Dubai, this place gave a dramatic feel to the story. It's dark, old English countryside setting, brought about the strong colors of camels, tans, and dark olives of the recent Chloe fall 2010 collection, paired up with the ravishing signature diamond clovers and floral jewelry of Van Cleef & Arpels. Did I mention that their long clover necklace cost AED 400,000 (equivalent to 108,902.80 USD)??

Militza from Bareface

We shot with the stunning Militza from Bareface....a tall and stunning Serbian beauty. Hair was done by the talented Tonee Robeiro, makeup by the awesome Zahra Kadom (I love working with her!), and story was once again shot by lighting fanatic Hussain Jian. Editorial is due to be published on the 2nd of September!
