Model: Iryna
Stylist: Trexie Dorrell
MUA: Chyeeda Burt
Everything you want in a model with everything you want in a stylist and makeup artist. This photo really is what we have wanted for years. It is a culmination of all that we were longing for. We wanted a high fashion model with superior looks and talent along with the threads to match. 

Iryna literally personifies fashion in a way we had not thought possible. For years we have sought such a look and only with her and the stylist/lighting assistant Trexie Dorrell could such results have come to be. Perfect styling, exceptional lighting and sophisticated garments and accessories. We sought a look and went for it all in and the results were even more remarkable than we anticipated. 

This look holds all we want to do. We want fashion, and we wanted high class style and sophistication.The stylist had everything flawlessly prepared all the way down to the stockings. It was a perfect look and she had the shoot well organized from start to finish. We had discussed the look, the lighting setup and gave Iryna a vibe to shoot for and she not only nailed it, she surpassed it. She really took ownership of the look. Sure she gave us a few complaints along the way about the weather and so on, but nothing can deny the results. She is easily among the top best models we’ve had (not just within the last 10 years) but possibly ever when it comes to fashion. 

Her attitude somewhat brash and her personality feisty and mildly confrontational but Iryna is what she is and we love her for it. It is part of what makes her a great model. She knows what she wants and she lets you know. We may have done much much more with a bit of diplomacy but quite frankly, she could have had and can have anything she wants along the lines of modeling. She is unsurpassed by every measure. She captured the looks flawlessly and this image best exemplifies the direction we wanted to go and the sense of fashion we have been striving for for years and would like to continue to do. 


It was a beautiful collaboration throughout. The garments were perfect. The lighting was supple yet punchy while the styling and makeup was flawlessly executed. Thanks to the entire team for making this image possible. Special thanks to Iryna our very special and talented Cover Model of Sircus Magazine Issue 8 for bringing it all together and achieving this heightened level of fashion and finesse. Thanks to my booking agent & stylist Trexie Dorrell for helping to discover Iryna and assembling a masterpiece. She truly makes everything beautiful come to life. Also thank you Chyeeda Burt for another well executed makeup application. Also thank you Nique Haggerty for coming by to help tweak the makeup to our liking between looks.
