Hello 34 years!

This year my birthday lasted much longer than it normally does, because I was in LA with L'Oréal Men Expert while I had my birthday. My lovely colleagues from L'Oréal got me flowers and cakes. My friends and family from Europe send me lots of videos and text messages.

It felt nice to know that many people think of you on your 'special' day. It also made me realise that I have so many wonderful people in my life that care about me. You tend to forget that when you are busy with thousand things. Presents are nice, but what is more valuable to me is when someone gifts you their time and attention.

I wanted to say thank you for taking the time to write me birthday messages and making short Instagram videos. I've seen them all and they warmed my heart! You are the best!!!

Thank you!

xo

Happy New Year everybody!

I hope you had a wonderful time during the holidays. Did you guys also eat a lot? 
The night before New Years I slept really bad so I had a hard time staying awake until midnight, hence the photo of me with the NYE party hats and espresso on Instagram. I was trying to depict a NYE Espresso demon. 

A couple days before we made the switch to 2019, Jen Majura, guitarist from Evanescence, came to visit me at my studio for a portrait photoshoot. 
We officially met in the summer of 2017 in Greece. We played together on a festival. We stayed in touch ever since. Last year we met again when she played in Stuttgart. She said she is from around the area, so I thought we could hook up for a coffee some day. 

That coffee turned out to become a make up session and photoshoot. To warm up we had a drawing session with Vincent. He really liked Jen and I must say she is great with kids! 

After we were done drawing crabs and unicorns, it was time to shock Jen with my make up collection. We found out that we both have the Urban Decay Moondust eyeshadow palette. A favourite from both of us. 

For the start of the shoot I wanted to do a soft smokey eye with a neutral lip. This photo is black and white, the make up is not that visible. If we would have extra time, we would switch it up a bit. In the end we ran out of time, mainly because we had such a good time just chatting about our lives as traveling musicians. 

Her idea was to look different than what people normally expect from her. A little bit more toned down in every aspect. Her choker should be in focus. On this photo it is not haha, but on the others it is. 
Whenever I do portraits, I like the clothing to not be too distracting. Less is more and neutral colours without prints work best in my opinion. 

Jen filmed our session which you can find here: JenJen and Simone

Thanks Jen for being my model, spending time with us, drawing unicorns and sipping coffee!

Ps. What do you think Jen was thinking about during this shot. I think it was Thai Food ;)
