My name is Liz, and I'm a freelance artist based in Northampton, MA. I am here to expand my portfolio, knowledge and creativity by collaborating with talented models, photographers, and stylists in New England (and beyond).
Interested in trade? I am actively offering makeup for shoots that will benefit my portfolio: beauty and fashion headshots that accurately showcase the face and makeup. Images should be high resolution headshots, retouched as needed and unwatermarked (fear not, you will always be credited!)
THIS is the kind of photography I would crawl over broken glass for! Please don't be offended if I respond with my rates; chances are I'll try to make it work as there are a wide variety of projects I'd love to sink my creative teeth into.
I possess a good kit (professional products not limited to one line, all kept impeccably clean), an eye for color, and a mature work ethic. Everything from natural, minimalist makeup to the avant garde lights my fire, but I'd say my main focus right now is beauty-with-a-twist (the twist, of course, being defined by the artistic direction of the shoot!) Makeup is the ultimate accessory and the finishing touch to a look, even if it's not meant to stand out. But if it is, all the better! I love the effect makeup can have on a person's overall style and attitude, and I strive to enhance both with my work.
Motto?
Blending is everything. If you want it fast and sloppy, I'm probably not the artist for you. Fortunately, you can count on me to budget my time and produce a polished look efficiently, but let's leave the five-minute faces to the morning talk show hosts!
Availability: I work full-time and am mostly available for evening and weekend shoots, but I have some daytime flexibility with adequate notice. When you contact me, just be sure to include the date, call time, location, who is involved, and other details about the shoot.
Thanks for reading; I look forward to working with you! Feel free to request references from my credits below, or message me with any questions.
