About me

Hi! My name is Karen Koenig and I am a freelance makeup artist and hairstylist in the Chicago area. I have extensive experience in many forms of media including television (live tv and commercials), printwork and advertising, fashion (runway, promotional, and porfolio development), indie films, actor's headshots, internet advertising and training, coprorate video, and theatrical and live performance work. I have recently also done more work in the music business which I absolutely love and would like to focus especially in television and production, and music and fashion related aspects of my job. My work is my passion, I truly love it and the more creative the better!

I look forward to working with you!!
Thanks!
Feel free to call me if there's a project I can help you with.

(847) 845- 6422

Sorry, No TFP, this is my full time profession. However, I may be open to testing if I feel it can benefit my portfolio with exceptional photographers, models, and concept.

Take care and I hope to work with you soon!
: )
