Hello :-)
I am a Vancouver based freelance makeup & hair artist looking to branch out a bit more and do fashion/commercial/ editorial style photoshoots in the hopes of adding to my existing portfolio. I have worked in the makeup industry since 2003 doing mostly beauty, bridal and fashion makeup/hair after I graduated from Blanche Macdonald's Makeup Artistry Diploma program.
I created Kiss Couture & Beauty, with my partner, Deena Safi in 2005 and since then worked on numerous Indian brides, fashionistas, and grads in the Lower Mainland. Check out my website for some of my work:
www.kisscouture.com
Also, I have worked in the retail industry - MAC for about 3 months and at Make Up Forever for 10 months. So, I have lots of different types of experience and I love to try different things.
Oh, and along the way it doesn't hurt to make new friends in the industry :-) So if you have an idea for a shoot, lets get together - send me a message on MM.
I am open to TFP/TFCD shoots if they add to my portfolio, but would really appreciate a kit fee, and any paid assignments are fantastic!
Thanks, Paula
