Photographer Gavin Thomas


Kaori Oiwa a female boxer who works out in one of the best gyms in Brooklyn.  The same gym where Millionaire Dollar Baby Hillary Swank trained.  I recently was approached by Gavin Thomas a photographer, who showed interest in shooting portraits of athletes.  Great timing I thought because I am going to be doing the makeup for a film Directed and Written by Ed Ronin who has an actual female boxer as one of the stars. 
Basically we got the ok from Kaori and the gym to shoot there, and Gavin photographed some fantastic shots.  I then put some FX work into hand and gave her a bruise and a gash below her eye.  She never knew what hit her.

Boxing around

Going to shoot with Gavin Thomas tomorrow.  He usually does high fashion work with me but we are shooting a female boxer tomorrow, so I think its the perfect time to break out some injuries.  Even though this boxer has never been knocked out I'm going to create a bruised eye, scrapes and cuts.  Hopefully she doesn't knock me out in the process.
Ill keep you posted with some pictures soon but in the mean time here some new photos.
