Makeup Artist Options.

You are free to choose any makeup artist you would like and bring them to the shoot or have them prepare you in advance. I do not recommend heavy makeup or much makeup at all for headshots as the look you choose should be easily repeatable by you for auditions and should look naturally like what you wear. That being said, for your ease of choice, below are two makeup artists that I recommend and you can contact them an arrange for their services if needed.

Natalie Anne Pagano

Her pricing list for our studio will be available soon, however she is very reasonable. If you are interested in using Natalie I will forward her contact information when we book our session. Natalie's specialty is HAIR, but she can also assist you with makeup.
