FAQ:

Why is professional makeup included with every photography session?

Answer:


Take a look at these two images above. Same studio, same lighting. On the left, I did my own makeup. On the right, a professional makeup artist glammed me up. A professional MUA’s eye is exactly what’s needed for creating a makeup look that shows up beautifully in photos!


In-depth explanation below:


Photos take away some of the depth, highlights, and shadow in our faces—things we usually don’t think about when we do our regular beat.


If you look at the photo on the left, my face:


  • Lacks the shadows that would make it look more sculpted
  • Looks more one dimensional. Even my nose seems to blend in with the rest of my face!
  • My eyebrows are unevenly defined and are very light, which adds to that flat/one-dimensional feeling
  • I have undereye circles I didn’t even realize I had (LOL)
  • My eye makeup application doesn’t emphasize my eyes very well


AND THEN LOOK AT THE RIGHT!


All of those features that didn’t pop on the left, DO on the right. A darker, bolder brow and eye makeup really balances my face better for pictures. There’s beautiful contour and the makeup colors make me look more alive and glowy. My face is more defined, and all my features are enhanced so nicely. My skin felt light and flawless, too!


Lastly, professional makeup perfects everything (minimizing things like skin discoloration, acne, etc) before I even get to editing your pictures—which means retouching and getting your images back to you goes SO much faster!


The *most* important thing is that you get to have a fun, pampering experience, and the stress of trying to do your own makeup look before your photoshoot is alleviated for you too! That’s why pro makeup will always be included when you book in.
