Why We Work With an MUA
Why We Choose to Work with a Makeup Artist
We often get asked why we use makeup artists and how they can really benefit our seniors. There are many reasons why we choose to work with an MUA. We want to make you feel like a glamour model – using a makeup artist adds a special treatment that you don’t get every day. I mean, come on, who doesn’t love a little pampering?
Most importantly, they also help you look your best. Even though I’m sure you do an excellent job with your makeup on an everyday basis, when it comes to photoshoots, you have to apply your makeup a little differently to make your best features really pop on film. You may not put on enough makeup normally to please the camera but may put it on too heavy when trying to get it right for your session.
We choose to hire a professional so you don’t have to worry about it – just sit back and let them work their magic. They’ve done this a million times before and know what looks best on camera. Cameras are very technologically advanced and pick up everything, even things that may not be noticeable to the naked eye. Makeup artists know what to look for, what to enhance, and what to cover.
MUAs also know which shimmery shadows will photograph weird and what colors to avoid for photos. Some things that look good in person tend to look strange on camera. They know what eyeliner to use to make your eyes pop instead of hiding them in shadows, and they’ve got the 4-1-1 on photography makeup. I prefer to leave this matter in the hands of the professionals. We include this service with most of our packages. If you have any questions, you can contact us at tiffanibrayphotography@gmail.com
