~~~~~~~~~~~~~TRAVEL and FREELANCE SERVICES~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I Have been a model/talent myself so I know the value of beautiful makeup and hair styling. I take pride in being well versed and highly experienced at both. I only do TF ANYTHING -with pros, who take a project seriously, are prompt and organized and those that follow through- I do NOT chase you around for prints/CD (edited and in a format we agree on) Otherwise, no deal.
If you only one ONE person to create a total look for your talent/cast- look no further. I am able to communicate well with directors, photographers and cast or models alike to create a result appropriate for a role or project.
I have a stout fine arts background and it shows in my abilities to create elaborate designs in both hair and makeup.

If your needs are for:
~ natural and clean- I can create precise designs and natural beautiful finishes for HD Digital photography. I can achieve and "no makeup" look for models for all important headshots. This is useful for film and television. My technique for contouring and shading/hilighting to enhance or diminish features desirable or undesirable is key for photography mediums-such as fantasy.
~ high fashion/ glamour for your shoot- I have an extensive background on working within the pageant industry as well as the all important wedding. I am able to create elaborate "airbrush" designs with use of airbrush or a similiar look with amazing use of colored mediums.
~ discreet men's makeup and hair for corporate events, headshots and print advertising.
