Gigi X Kate Atelier

I was working on Germany’s Next Top Model season 20 as a PA when I went to Milan and Zurich for the LAFC fashion shows. For the Zurich show, I contacted eliminated contestant Gabriel von Schinckel and got him to walk for Septimius the Great. While there, Gabriel met salon owners Gigi and Kate, and we were invited to do a shoot for them! Joined by GNTM 20 contestant Ethan Moore, we received full HMU makeovers and were photographed by their in-house photographer, Echoes of X. The full-service salon also has a professional studio where we shot a variety of dramatic beauty shots, playing with lighting and focusing on posing and form. It was an absolute pleasure getting to work with such talented models, especially after getting to watch Ethan and Gabriel on the show. The creative team at Gigi x Kate Atelier are all amazing artists whose talents collectively act as a full-service production team. This was such a fun impromptu shoot and I was so happy to be involved!
