About me
**Please be advised that I am only doing TFP/TFCD on a Very limited basis.  My rates will be very reasonable, please contact me for prices.*******

My goal with MM is to connect with others who enjoy preserving our art in photographs.  Even though this is something I do for a living, even if you don't, as long as you are passionate, professional and good at what you do I'd like working with you.

When I'm on a shoot, I like having fun but I'm also serious about everyone working on a common goal and getting the best out of the shoot that we can.  But as I always say...Rock on!


I LOVE doing makeup...as a kid any time girlfriends came over they always had to let me make them up.  Professionally I've been a makeup artist and esthetician for 14 years.  I own my own skincare and makeup studio in NW Portland and am a regional educational artist for a major manufacturer.  On a daily basis I do everyday makeup, special event and bridal. I've gotten very good at covering very acne skin and making it look clear for photos. Most of the bridal I do is on location.   

I really want to do more ad looking shots now-single person or multiple. NO NUDES!! Think Guess, DKNY, Juicy, etc.


In several of the pics on my portfolio, I have done the hair as well as the makeup. (oh, I'm just double trouble, aren't I??).  While licensed for hair, it is not something I do on a daily basis and do not consider myself "great" at styling.  Please do not assume I will do hair on every shoot.

***Models - All eyes are on YOU! It is VERY important that you show up ready for our shoot.  That means have your eyebrows done (or any other facial hair) and your nails shaped with at least clear polish on.  Thanks!  :-)

Now let's get creative and have fun!!

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...

Hey,

I need a MUA that can also do simple hair (basically just hair spray to get rid of fly aways) for a digital video shoot - paid work - for the foo fighters. The make-up is a gaunt, lifeless look. Think starving model, the heroin look but more extreme. So making them pale, bags under eyes etc. It's 3 hours / 2 actors (1 male + 1 female / this Saturday (the 19th).

If you're interested call me @ 503.422.2596 I'll give you our website so you can see our work and we can discuss rate / I'll give you more details.

Thanks!

Thanks for the pic comment. I wanted this shot to honor the many Woman Warrior's, some famous others not, that history did not record with a photo.
