THE IMPORTANCE OF USING PROFESSIONAL HAIR AND MAKEUP ARTISTS

Having professional headshots is so important for every professional. They’re not just for actors & models, they’re for doctors, managers, small business owners, and anyone in-between. A professional headshot is made that much better when you include a professional team of Hair and Makeup artists. If you’ve ever seen the acronym HMUA this is who we are talking about! (Hair and MaukeUp Artists). :)

When you book a professional makeup artist you save yourself the stress of planning your looks. You have a part in direction and style choices but the beginning to end production will be handled by your artist. They are professionals for a reason! (Your face will look amazing and photo ready!)

If you opt for all-day packages the Makeup artist and Hair stylist will be there to touch up your looks throughout the shoot. Sometimes you will have multiple looks that will need to be changed during the shoot. Having a professional team to do that for you saves you the stress and obligation to trek your personal items around with you.

You may have a vision of how you want your hair but not the skills to make it come to life. That’s where your professional hair stylist comes into to shine. You will get the chance to chat with them about styles and they will have the experience to know when look should be shot where and when. The order of when your hairstyle is done can play a huge part in the flow of your shoot. The time crunch is real and having a professional team at your shoot will ensure the you look great and that you won’t go over your time.
