If I'm going to be shot, I want a blindfold and cigarette.

Awwwww Herb...

Steve did not OFFER me either one but then neither did he ask
for a blindfold when he shot me under the waterfall without makeup or the magical help of a MUA or Stylist...but I think he required several hits of Black Jack before and after the shoot...

I love to shot models with and without makeup.  Very useful for trying to get work or an agency for they can see what you look like.

I am more of a color person lately.

Here is one that I did recently.

I have a whole book of no makeup shots.

I keep thinking of the Simpsons episode where Homer invents a makeup gun and shoots Marge while it's set to "whore".

Maybe Rajan has loaded such a gun with blanks...

No, make-up errrr.... that scares me. But if there is photoshop I am always up for it. I dislike how I look without make-up. For some reason the Boyfriend LOVES it!

Some of the best natural looks I have shot have make-up. The process of taking a three dimensional object and making it two dimensional always changes the way it appear, to create something natural looking you actually have to shoot it in a way that is not natural,

Sure, that way in ten or twenty years I'll be able to say, and back up with proof, that there was once a time when I could not wear makeup without frightening people.

I think photoshoping defeats the point of it. Everyone I've dated has told me not to wear make-up. Its nice cause i'm lazy:)

I love the natural look. Only time I put make up on is if I'm going to go out to a show or something. I dont wear it around the house most of the time or around town. There's no need to. I like how I look alot more when I have make up because it does help enhance natural beauty and make you feel more secure. But the natural look is awesome.

Since I don't wear much make-up anyway, I wouldn't mind at all.  The only thing I usually wear as far as make up is eyeliner, mascara and some eye shadow...and sometimes some lip gloss.  I couldn't put foundation on if it saved me!  LOL

I've been photographed with no make-up, but rarely. I don't generally wear make-up in real life anyway unless I'm going to to be social. Which is hardly ever.

How I have looked in my photo so far, is how I look everday. I dress well and wear make-up all the time. I think men have a thing for women without make-up.  Maybe they think your hot no matter what?

No problem with no make up, have done it for realistic portraits and before/after demonstration photos.

Raj, is this a literal or hypothetical question? Are you looking for models for an actual shoot? In Bombay? smile

The natural look bores me. I like to look glamorous in my pics, farther away from what I look like in every day life.

All of my waterfall shots are "no makeup/no stylist" and are both color and B/W.
I love my MUA/Stylists...but the client wanted au naturel....so they got it.

First,

That is no speech impediment.   That is my super power,  the power to daze the enemy with mindnumbing speech.

Oh by the way,  On the topic,  yes I love as Marksora pointed out that no or low makeup shots are great,  especially for portfolios to get work.    A fine thesperian can play a clown but a clown cannot play Romeo.
