a party involving

lots of ladies, makeup, a magician (ok not really, but she is magic), drinks, and a few appetizers. which equals complete success if you ask me. thank you so much gina for pouring forth your knowledge of all things makeup and wonderful. i met gina last summer when i did the wiksten shoot for jenny. she had just moved to kansas city from los angeles the year before where she had been working as a makeup artist for years. of course i thought she was cool, but when i ran into her again a few months later, to my great surprise i found out that she was married to a friend of mine from grade school!! crazy coincidence. so crazy. i mean who could resist such a cute family? not me. so not only did this woman agree to celebrate a triple birthday party by giving us the best makeup tricks and techniques ever, she did it after driving 8 straight hours from chicago. you are insane lady. and awesome. thank you a million times over gina for saturday night.

oh and if you are in kansas city and in need of a makeup artist or a fashion consultant you are in total luck because gina freelances!! weddings, events, consultations, whatever, she can do it all. i am serious. shoot me an email if you would like her contact info. yay yay!!
