Bio

For Monique Jones, there’s a certain kind of magic that happens when a creative team come together on set. “I love the unlimited possibilities and dynamic illusions that can be created within the four walls of a studio,” Monique says. Motivated by a desire to connect and create beauty, her work is an effortless mix of refinement and edge. “I love a brief that allows the collective creative energy to harmonise and flow,” she says. Staying grounded and grateful are cornerstones to her approach. “I always arrive on set with a ‘can-do’ attitude and make the moments count with gratitude.” My muse is… my grandma, beauty personified on every level. The energy I bring to a shoot is… positivity, calm and gratitude. My favourite work to date is… my 10Mag cover with Tiffany & Co! Ten models, all beauty, and an epic team with good vibes! If I could shoot an editorial of anyone (living or dead) it would be… Oprah, Dr Jane Goodall, FKA Twigs, Zoe Kravitz. The one item in my kit that consistently saves the day is… hydrating mists, the best skin refresher and multi-use product ever! I’m still dreaming of shooting… Vogue covers. If I wasn’t working as hair and make-up artist, I’d be… working with animals and travelling the world.
