About me
Important: I believe in giving credit where it is due.
I give credit to each contributing party for every photograph I post anywhere. If you do not have the same philosophy, then we probably shouldn't work together.

"There is a good principle, which has created order, light and man; and a bad principle, which has created chaos, darkness and woman." -Pythagoras

My main motive is Makeup Artistry for the expressive outlet, which I pair up with Hair Styling and Wardrobe Design to round out the Model and Photographer in me.

Rates
Makeup
- $70 per face (approx 1 hr)
- $110 for bridal makeup (this includes a run through prior to your wedding day)
- $220 half day rate (4 hr)
- $400 full day rate (8 hr)

Hair

I'm always open to new ideas, jobs, and styles. If you think you can challenge me I'd love to talk to you.

I pride myself on giving people a good experience with getting their Hair & Makeup done. Many people can find this nerve racking and an annoying experience- after all, someone is really in your face, and space. I work with the way a models face expresses emotion, and it's relaxed shape to enhance natural beauty and make their greatest assets pop. [It's just a bonus that I promise you won't look like you just came out of a porn movie... unless that's what you ask for!]

"Alicia is not only a great MUA but she is also invaluable as a second opinion in providing ideas to help make the photos come alive. She's a triple threat: MUA, Model, with a Photographer's eye. I would gladly work with her again."
-Isaac L. Koval of Koval Productions #380831

"I was sad when I took a shower and washed away all the make-up, you really did a fantastic job. I didn't know I could look like that. I need a make-up artist more often."
-Sie Ist Idaho #381942

"You were great with the makeup and did a great job keeping the shoot on schedule."
-Michael Zaugg of Michael Zaugg Photography #180452

I am a photographer from Los Angeles, California and I'm doing a special shoot in Portland for one day... Friday, February 27, 2009. I am looking for Makeup Artists and Hair Stylists for TFCD work either half day or full day. It will be a great opportunity to receive a large variety of photos done on multiple models in one shoot. I am very conscious of making sure I get you the shots you need for your portfolio so let me know if you're interested.

(If you are only available for half of the day, that would be acceptable as well)

Please message me if you're interested...
