"AND THE DAY CAME WHEN THE RISK TO REMAIN TIGHT IN A BUD WAS MORE PAINFUL THEN THE RISK IT TOOK TO BLOSSOM"
**********************************************
Hey!! My name is Gianni and I have been doing make up for the past few years. Believe me. I didn't think I'd love it as much as I do. BUT I DO! It's one of my many "PASSIONS"! I've had the honor of working with some great photographers and directors among them: Matthew Rolston, Dewey Nicks and Forrest Whitaker. My philosophy comes from the words of my loving mother "Just pray and keep on going!" I'm so blessed that each day I get the "opp" to be better and better. As Maya Angelou says: When you know better. You do better. I'm definitely going for the "DO BETTER" part.
*******************************************
My goal: To work more in T.V./ Movies/ Do major fashion shows/ celebs/ commercials / videos/ I choose to be a creative force and be recognized in and stay in the wonderful loop of all great creative endeavors dealing with make up, beauty and glamour !!! "If you don't want lashes then stay outta' my chair!" (smile) COMIN' AT YA' !!!!!
