HAIR AND MAKEUP - DOING IT YOURSELF
If you will be wearing makeup and doing it yourself, keep it simple, we want very natural looks.
If you have any blemishes, etc., those are simple fixes in editing, so no need to go heavy on the makeup to cover this.
Remember; less is more.
Also make sure to moisturize your face and lips. The camera sees everything and if you have dry skin or lips, it will show.
HAIR AND MAKEUP - HIRING SOMEONE
If you are interested in having someone on-site to do your hair and makeup, I am happy to hire someone on your behalf. I work with many; and am extremely picky about who I use. They are masters at creating looks specifically for natural light. You can check out one of my primary artist's website here:

If you are planning to hire someone yourself make sure that they understand that we will be shooting strictly with natural light, so makeup needs to be acurately color matched and not applied heavily.
