Editorial Shoot: Fall Fashion for Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel
Yesterday I had the opportunity to work as the manicurist on the Fall Fashion shoot for the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. Editorial is what I love, and it was a blast to be a part of this. I felt very lucky – I had full creative license. Even so, my goal was to highlight nail trends without going too wild – I really wanted to focus on what women would wear day to evening. Big love to essie for previously sending me their limited edition Fall into Fashion collection. I knew the moment I saw the gorgeous, muted jewel tones that they had to be featured! What a way to swatch the essie colors – onto models 🙂
First up is Amber, who wore essie Sew Psyched, a green gray blend that perfectly complimented her skin tone. I have not been a fan of the green nail polish trend, but this color turned it around. When we got to Cuvee, the location for the shoot, everyone was asking about “that pretty green”. It is fall without being too dark, and is totally fresh.
essie’s Velvet Voyeur looked smashing on model Tiffany. It enhanced her beautiful pale complexion, dark hair and eyes, and the metallic brocade dress.
That’s Kristin Lindemann, esthetician and makeup artist, creating an evening look.
Location: Cuvee, Milwaukee

Ugh. Bad lighting. Wish you could see better how Heather rocked a fabulous mane of red hair, and essie’s neutral taupe Merino Cool.
Her nail polish was a perfect tie-in with the outfit and shoes. Also? I want that bracelet.
I didn’t get a chance to photograph Anne, the model wearing CND Shellac (just named a top 5 fall trend by People Magazine!). She wore Negligee.
Thanks to everyone that made this happen. Look for the full layout and clothing/jewelry/credits in the September 26th issue of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.
