My collaboration with Kakie dates back to the beginning of my career as a fashion, beauty and celebrity photographer. I do not count, today the innumerable productions for which I had the pleasure to appeal to his talent. Kakie is one of those rare makeup artists to have in mind that an essential concern: reveal the beauty whatever the intentions of light and style, whatever the virtuosity of the techniques it calls. But besides, his incredible mastery of textures and color, which has always impressed me and has always impressed many photographers like me, it is the extreme delicacy of her mind and the incredible artistic inspiration she shows on each session. Kakie is much more than a great makeup artist, she is an artist who takes the photographer to surpass himself.

I assisted Kakie for 2 years and I still think those were the most enlightening of my training years. Thanks to what I learnt from Kakie, I was then able to widen my experience to other fields and I now freelance mainly for celebrity photoshoots, magazines as well as for video shoots. But my need for creativity always brings me back to catwalks and the fashion industry that Kakie introduced me to so selflessly.
If I were to remember one thing only out of all that she taught me: to be inspired by our models and clients’ core essence in order to beautify them.

Right after my makeup school, I had the chance to assist Kakie. I followed her for 1 year.
I could never get into fashion without her help! It's a very closed environment. Assistantship is mandatory. Even though my training has provided me with some basics, learning on the job with Kakie is a second school, more challenging, concrete and of better quality!
Kakie is a pedagogue, passionate and is especially a reference in this field. I owe her, she taught me a lot. Thanks to her, I also had the opportunity to become a part model. As a mentor, I could not have dreamed better! So a big thank you!

Hello. I do not know where to start, Kakie is a person with many creative facets, always looking for what’s new and beautiful, always looking to surprise and amaze you.
Whenever we worked together I was serene knowing things were always prepared in advance with well-constructed research. But the greatest virtue, as in all trades, is that Kakie is always on time and smiling! When I started as a photographer, one of my firsts jobs was with her and thanks to her. We’ve collaborated on many shootings since then.

After studying in a makeup school that taught me the job of makeup artist in its entirety and because I wanted to work in the fashion industry, I realized that it was complicated to work in this industry without having followed a fashion makeup artist. So I went to Paris, where I met Kakie, and had the chance to assist her.
Kakie has a great teaching method, learning with her is a real chance.
She taught me the specific techniques and skills for shootings, shows, campaigns...etc, encompassing fashion, with of course the « french touch ».
She is an artist, with an artist’s eye, a huge experience and mostly the envy of sharing it, which is rare!
Thanks to assisting, doors have opened for me. I was able to meet photographers, stylists, models... which allowed me to complete my book and start working.
I am so greatful and happy to be able to do this job now, thanks to this training with Kakie.
