Southern California Hair and Makeup groups
Does anyone know of any groups here or maybe even Facebook that are specific to Southern California. I run group shoots every month and am having a hard time getting Hair Stylists. Im usually pretty lucky with Makeup but even then I get a lot of flakes. Commit one day, cancel the next. or Cancel the day before or day of a shoot. It's frustrating. Thanks in advance if you know of any good resources!!! Sep 13 15 12:27 pm Link out here I give muas free business cards with our logo and their name to push both of our names. I also pay a kit fee $12 for them. It helps to encourage them to show up. Many are flakey but I also shoot weddings and sometimes it leads to real jobs with my team. Sep 13 15 10:16 pm Link We do pay a $25 kit fee plus we ask for tips from the photographers. So they end up getting between $40 & $60 Sep 14 15 11:21 am Link wow. you guys pay a lot more. Makeup costs the same whatever country. That's good to hear. I thought that would be enough to keep your makeup artists happy. Sep 16 15 02:12 am Link Group Shoots rarely result in images that can be used by the Makeup/Hair Artist in their formal portfolio. So, there has to be enough Value in the offer to make it worth their time. $25 Kit Fee is typically not enough - especially if the Networking opportunities at the Group Shoot are not in the markets they with to pursue. While it is NEVER professional to Flake, there can be little intensive to hold the date.
