October 30th - Marcellino Bogaert

Yesterday I did a photoshoot with photographer Marcellino Bogaert and make-up artist Elien Op De Beeck. We did portrait and fashion shots on a white, grey and wooden backrgound. It was great to work with them and I'm very happy with the result, I will post photos as soon as possible!

September 25th - Nico Ego

Last Saturday I did a short shoot with photographer Nico Ego and make-up artist Peggy Timmermans in the Middelheim parc (Antwerp). We started at 11am with the make-up in a nearby café, it was raining cats and dogs but luckily the sun started shining once we went outside. Two and a half hours later, we were ready, just in time to avoid another shower of rain.

These are the first results:

September 19th - Frank Maesen

Last Sunday I did a shoot with photographer Frank Maesen and make-up artist Sanne De Wolf.
We did a variation of conceptual, fashion and beauty. This is the first result:

August 29th - Katrijn Michiels

Today I did a fashion portraits shoot with photographer Katrijn Michiels, make-up was provided by Kathleen vwl and clothing by Ellen Lloyd, the second model was Annik. These photos will be used for the Weekend Knack contest, details and photos will be published after the contest.

August 27th - Daniel Doyen

Today I did a shoot with the very talented photographer Daniel Doyen and make-up provided by Connie Van Noten-Zandbergen.
We had one idea in mind, which was a bit difficult because of the weather so we started in the studio. We used a combination of my clothing and Daniels stuff and I even ended up jumping.
After it had stopped raining, we headed to the location, which was a spot in the woods with several lakes and plenty of reed to use as a background.
In short, this was a very nice collaboration and I'm excited to see the results.

Casting Kenovell

About a week ago I got a message from another model, she told me that a production company called "Kenovell" might be interested in my look, a bit insecure I sent them an e-mail with 3 of my photos and indeed, I got invited to their office for a casting.
That casting was today, I filled out a form and got some photos taken of me, who knows, maybe I might get some small jobs for movies or ads.

August 21st: Antoon Torrekens

Today I did a very arty shoot with photographer Antoon Torrekens involving a horse's skull, cloth, pearl necklaces, dolls and a floating table. Thank to Connie Van Noten-Zandbergen for the make-up and assistance.

Preview - shoot Michel Melsen

These are the first photos I received from the shoot last Wednesday, please help me choose which one to use... Credits go to photographer Michel Melsen and make-up artist Kathleen vwl.

August 11th - Michel Melsen

Today I did a shoot in a very modern surrounding, photographer was Michel Melsen and Make-up artist was Kathleen vwl. I want to thank both of them for this last-minute shoot! As usual, I'll post photos as soon as possible!

August 7th - photoshoot day Waterschei

I was one of the models provided by Michel Engelen and Peter Nackearts for photographers in the mine buildings of Waterschei. I got to work with 4 different photographers in and around the buildings, if I receive any photos I'll try to post the best results on here.

August 6th - Blackstar Photography

I just returned from my second collaboration with photographer Didier Van Acker (Blackstar photography), we worked in his studio in Ghent. We used a diversity of tops, a gorgeous classy beige dress and a black monokini, that in combination with his use of light and wind and I'm already looking forward to seeing the result. I'll hopefully post a first result next week.

July 30th - Gunther Frans

Today, I did a beauty shoot with photographer Gunther Frans, Make-up artist and hair stylist Monika Stepien and assistant Irma Pelgrims in The Hague (Den Haag - The Netherlands).
The make-up artist bought fresh fish (for sushi) and fresh flowers, she gave me 4 different and amazing looks with those flowers and the photographer experimented with his new 'Beauty Dish'.
I'm looking forward to seeing the result and will post it here as soon as possible!

July 25th - Alex Vandenbroeck

Today I went to the seaside with my mum for an eveningshoot with photographer Alex Vandenbroeck, we did a combination of bikini and something with the dramatic clouds and rocks.
It was so cold on the beach, my lips and fingertips were turning blue, but I had a lot of fun and I've seen some very nice previews. This is a first edited photo, thanks Alex for finishing it so quickly!

Shoot with Stephanie Fraikin (July 4th)

I forgot to post something about the shoot July 4th, it was an awesome shoot and I'm in love with the result!
The photographer was Stephanie Fraikin, make-up artist was Daisy Vermandel and there were two other models as well. We did the shoot in a museum near Sint-Niklaas, I got to wear a very long black dress with an amazingly long train and a beautiful golden corset.
I hope you all like the result:

July 13th: shoot with Michel Engelen

This morning I had a shoot with photographer Michel Engelen and make-up artist Connie Van Noten-Zandbergen. We started in Antwerp at 8am and it was definitely worth waking up for.
Michel wanted to give me a totally different look, so I ended up with a very special hairdo and of course some well-done make-up.
We took photos in the surrounding of the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, I think we got some amazing photos, so as soon as I get them, I'll post an example here and on my website: http://www.ivimodel.com

Photos: July 2nd

Here are 2 examples from the shoot with Wyoming, the black horse.
Photographer: Connie Van Noten-Zandbergen

July 2nd: Shoot with a black horse

Today, I was finally able to realise one of my own ideas, a shoot with our black horse.
The weather wasn't great: it was too hot, not enough clouds, ... but we had a fine afternoon and hopefully some great results.
Photographer: Miech Rolly and Connie van Noten-Zandbergen
Make-up artist and hair stylist: Connie van Noten-Zandbergen
Assistant: Maaike VI
Horse: Wyoming

It is really difficult to shoot with an animal, especially to make them stand still, luckily we and the horse were a bit more comfortable after a while, I'll show some of the results as soon as I get them.

Shoot Inge Houwen

I got my results today: 81%!
Anyway, I promised to show you a picture from the shoot with Inge Houwen, so here it is:


We did the shoot in Ghent (Citadelpark), it was a very hot but nice day and it was also a very nice and relaxing shoot. I hope you all like the result!

Shoot with a black horse

Hello everyone!

I'm trying to organise a shoot with a black horse, I already found the horse and a location so I'm just looking for a photographer and make-up/hair stylist.
If you are interested, please contact me through modellennet, Modelmayhem or my website (http://www.wix.com/lxfemme/lafemme)

Photoshoot (May 13th and May 14th) + Catwalk

So, I know, I'm a bit late with this but since I just started this blog I'll give you a bit more info about my last 2 shoots:
On May 13th I had a shoot in an amazingly beautiful house in the region of Brussels. We originally planned to shoot around the train station, luckily the photographer had this house as a plan B because the weather was awful. The photographer was the very talented Mehdy Nasser, here is a result of this testshoot:



The day after I had a very nice shoot with Blackstar Photography, this time I spent the afternoon in his studio in Ghent. It's funny to see how a photographer can make me look completely different:



And to end this amazing weekend, I participated in the Fashionshow for charity in Antwerp - Kammenstraat: Naked10. I put some videos on my websites (I know my walk isn't perfect!):

First time
