Girl Profile: Christine Aguiling

Ask Christine Aguiling about her accomplishments and she’ll speak of the work she’s done behind the camera. She’s quite an accomplished make-up artist, having done work for projects like The Today Show, 48 Hours Mystery, and Cappel & Ride.

But in front of the camera, she is a natural model. I met her on Instagram (a first!) and based on her pictures and look, immediately wanted to shoot her. She was a joy to work with and I can’t wait to do it again!
