What if I Don’t Like Wearing Makeup?
This is a common question that we get as senior photographers. We understand that makeup isn’t for everyone, and there is a myth that to have a successful shoot, you must wear extremely heavy makeup, and be edited completely. I believe there is a healthy balance between enhancing your naturally beautiful features, and you feeling nothing like yourself. I want to encourage you today that if you are worried about professional hair or makeup, here are a few reasons that you can rest assured:
- Our professional team cares about your feelings: If you prefer a more natural look or a more glam feel, our team will listen to you, and understand your concerns. They will also consult with you about the look you are going for, and help you feel confident and happy. We want you to walk away feeling amazing, and not worried that your images will be too edited or covered up. If you LOVE makeup and want a more editorial look, we can also do that! It’s about what you prefer.
- Our team knows what looks right on camera: Makeup in person in natural light, and on camera, looks completely different. Our trained team knows how to apply your makeup so it photographs beautifully, so you can trust them, even if you’re not familiar with wearing certain styles. They know how to make you truly feel your best.
- We recommend professional level makeup for a reason: On camera, those who choose to wear no makeup at all end up looking a bit washed-out or have shadows and blemishes that they are oftentimes unhappy with at the end. We instead recommend that you use professional makeup, but ask for a very light, natural look. This will give you the look of “no makeup”, but still give you the finished product and images that you are hoping for!
