I get asked on almost every job, how long I've been in the business. Here's the answer
I promise I've improved since then
I guarantee profesionalism from my end and I expect the same in return. If I take photos, expect to receive digital copies within a week at the very most. If you take the photos, I expect the same profesionalism in return. If you have participated in any way to a photo in my portfolio and you are on MM you WILL be credited appropriately. I expect the same in return. Thank you.
I am passionate about art.
I am in my fourth year at Goucher College majoring in Studio art with a minor in Psychology. I have always had a passion for makeup and just want to get involved in the industry. In addition to makeup I love all kinds of art. I am experienced in photography, photoshop and I've studied at Philidelphia University for fashion design. I would love to someday be an art director (you know like Mr. Jay on America's Next Top Model?). I also do some professional photography. If you are interested in portraits- please know that although I have a very nice portrait lens and digital SLR, I do not own studio lighting (can't afford such luxuries when you're a MAC and Urban Decay addict), so it would have to be an outdoor shoot, but I would also be able to photoshop the photographs to enhance the final product (see my link at the top called "Lily's Art" to see other portraits done by me). I also want to gain experience working with other photographers.
I want to add variety to my portfolio am willing to do some makeup for free if it will benefit my portfolio, but products are expensive and I am currently doing limited TF*. Please ask about my rates, they are very reasonable.
I have experience in runway shows, photo shoots and other performances .
I am willing to do all sorts of makeup but I would always prefer go over-the-top and surreal.
My one pet-peeve: I will not do makeup for a model wearing real fur or excessive leather (more than shoes). Sorry, but hey, Pamela Anderson is an animal rights girl too!!! : D
Loves: ALL art- fashion, photography and makeup especially, bme, bright colors, metal, Japan and Mark Ryden.
Favorite style of art: pop surrealism
Favorite Makeup: MAC & Urban Decay
Passions: Vegan, Straight-edge
Dream Photo Shoots include: water, rockabilly/psychobilly, trapezes, trampolines, motion, bunnies and kittens, kids' toys, hello kitty bright colors and Dita Von Teese. (not all at the same time)
