Go behind the scenes of MAYRAH’s Resort 2015/16 ‘RADIATE’ photoshoot.
Introducing Kayla Brown as the face of MAYRAH’s Resort 2015/16 campaign, ‘RADIATE’.
Kayla is a proud young Gamilarray/Yuwaalaraay woman from Lightning Ridge, outback Australia.
A regular on the catwalks of Melbourne Fashion Week and Indigenous International Runway showcases, this was Kayla’s first foray into editorial modeling and as the face of an Australian fashion campaign. And she took it all in her stride, impressing the creative team with her natural effervescence on our location photoshoot, captured at One Mile beach on Australia’s beautiful NSW north coast.
When taking a break from gracing the runways, Kayla is busy studying Primary and Early Childhood Teaching (Honors) at the University of Newcastle, working towards her dream of becoming a role model and mentor for all young people. Kayla hopes to inspire the next generation of children to grow up believing in themselves, knowing that they can achieve their goals, and encouraging them to follow their dreams.
Kayla Brown is definitely one to watch on the Australian modeling scene, and we are incredibly grateful to have this inspirational young lady embody the MAYRAH brand.
The talented hair and make-up stylist behind the MAYRAH Resort 2015/16 ‘RADIATE’ campaign is Jessica Zoellner.
Jessica worked alongside MAYRAH’s Founder & Creative Director to create a look that captured the natural beauty of Australian model Kayla Brown, the face of the Resort 2015/16 ‘RADIATE’ campaign.
Here is Jess’ run down on the inspiration for the look:
“We worked together to create a vibrant look that captured the natural Australian beauty using earthy tones with a hint of shimmer to highlight Kayla’s features. We decided to feature the eyes in the ‘RADIATE’ campaign by creating a crisp double white underline, inspired by the current directional trend, and keeping the dewy finish for the rest of the look with bold eyebrows, translating into the ‘sunkissed, Australian essence’ of the MAYRAH brand”.
Jessica graduated from the Napoleon Perdis Makeup Academy and specialises in creating the perfect, flawless and personal look for any campaign or occasion. She began her journey as a makeup artist after discovering her true passion for being creative and for all things beautiful – and making sure that everyone feels beautiful!
Jessica interpreted the MAYRAH look to perfection. She is a true professional and creative innovator in the Australian beauty industry.
