Seen The September Issue yet? I can't wait - beauty editor friends that have say it's great and made them smile because even on US Vogue the planning meeting seems pretty similar to any other magazine - beauty editor tries to convince disinterested editor-in-chief that her idea for a story is the best ever...
Fashion shoots are all about showing the clothes, but when you come up with an idea for a beauty shoot, you're trying to put across a concept or just something you have in your mind's eye, and trying to describe that to a sceptical editor can be tough. That's why I wish I'd had a resource like Boubou Teatime. Her collages are always gorgeous and inspiring, a visual feast. But then you might think, why spend thousands of pounds on photoshoot at all, just use the collage...!
I love doing mood boards. They're brilliant for a bit of inspiration (clearly why all designers/creative directors et al use them still). Check this one out: http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o1/jessgear29/bEAUTYwOObACKGROUND-2-3.png
