Northbound Leather Catalogue Cast

NLC_CastThis past Saturday I staged the sexiest game of Clue to ever be played. The entire event was art directed & photographed by yours truly for the 2013 Northbound Leather Catalogue. The cast was composed of Swedish webcam amazon Skyler, boss lady Laura Martini, porn star Casey Calvert, Chanele the Lolita, exotic beauty model Jessie Y., Grace Jones’ and Tyson Beckford’s chanteuse love child Peter, gentle blue-eyed bear Cal, our angular twink Andrew, & cut personal trainer Brandon. Lord Morpheous, author of “How to Be Kinky” & “How to Be Kinkier,” opened the doors of his impressive penthouse with a panoramic view for the shoot. My awesome beauty team (Bronwen Weiderick & Amber Fairlie of The Manor Salon) exceeded all expectations true to form and I couldn’t do it without them. Oh, and that’s George, the owner of Northbound, down in the front there. I think he had a bit of fun too. I am very excited to get the catalogue printed and show off the scintillating scenarios we staged in stunning light. Stay tuned! xo

L’Oreal Colour Trophy Semi-Finals.

TheManorSalon_ColourTrophy_Digital

 

Our team from The Manor Salon participated in the L’Oreal Colour Trophy Sem-Finals yesterday. We were the youngest team from the smallest salon there and felt honoured to be chosen as one of Ontario’s best. We left the show as runners up feeling like we had just been privy to the making of Zoolander 2.  It was a hilarious day with fantastic hors d’ouvres and plenty of people watching. Our model, Natalie Sirianni, managed to look effortlessly stunning after being forced to stand for approximately eight hours straight in heels without heating, food or drink backstage. Sonia Anjos and Ambler Fairlie of The Manor Salon created a soft, short, blonde ombre hair style that fit well with the show’s Retro Spring trend. Bronwen Weiderick worked her make-up magic with Natalie’s face in her usual expert way. Take a look at our winning photo above and a sneak peek at the show itself.

BADBITCH2013 – Video Tease

My team and I shot a solid creative on Monday called BADBITCH2013. The shoot was inspired by all the talk of bad bitches on the radio lately. The boys seem to love them so. We dressed up our bad bitch Teisha from NEXT in six completely different looks with corn rows, and mohawks to boot by the ever talented Amber Fairie of The Manor Salon. Megan Ann WIlson, who has the baddest wardrobe of any bitch around, seamlessly pulled together six outfits that were at once sexy, fierce and intimidating. Make-up magician Bronwen Weiderick evolved Teisha from a baby-faced beauty into a full on threat throughout the day. And Asia V. mixed up a selection of cocktails to top each outfit off. We are shopping this unpublished editorial around. Inbox jennifer@jennifertoole.com if you’d like to secure it for your publication. This video was my very first attempt in video editing so please forgive my beginner status. Enjoy!
