A friend had referred me to a Fitness Model/ Trainer who needed a makeup artist for an upcoming photo shoot. After corresponding via email for a few days we discussed all the details and she decided to work with me. Now this being my first "fitness model" photo shoot I needed to do my research on the type of look we were going for.
Now when I think fitness model/trainer I think natural, fit and glowing. I found some looks that I thought my client would like and emailed her my ideas. She loved them. Her excitement and enthusiasm was flowing through her words and I was eating them up, and my excitement grew and grew for this project.
The day had come and when I met my client in person she was just as bubbly and full of life as her emails. Her friendliness and energy was inspiring and contagious. After hearing all about her journey to have a "clean" lifestyle, her goal to become a fitness competitor and how she was already a certified trainer... all I could think was...... AMAZING! So driven and determined, I loved it. Even though we work in different fields, I was able to totally understand her wants to better herself and others around her! I was so happy to work with her and help her translate that inner beauty into the already beautiful woman she is. We went with natural/healthy/glowing look for a few shots and then amped up her look for a bit more drama and VaVaVoom. She looked amazing and you could tell she felt that way too. Well deserved day of pampering and feeling like a model, she earned it. So to my client, Get it Girl and keep working it!
Austin Heckman of Freedom Still Photography was the great photographer that I had the pleasure of working with that day. Watching him work with my client and guide her to showcase all her hard work was a true gift. The passion he has for what he does is 100% shown in his work.
I hope you enjoy my work and if you have any questions about products please feel free to contact me!!!
