We generally do our Headshot sessions outdoors using New Mexico's great natural light. But due to the Spring winds, we've been spending more time indoors in our studio working with some talented area models in improving their modeling portfolios.
One of my all-time faves is Celeste. We enjoy working with her for a lot of reasons. She knows makeup and hair and does a great job on both. Celeste can leave the studio for 10 minutes and return with an entire new look just by putting up her hair and changing her eye makeup. We've been working together for over 5 years and so has gained a lot of experience and confidence in that time. She's always ready to assist me in trying out some new studio lighting or locations. And, she uses Bare Escentials Mineral makeup because it photographs so well and applies so easily.
Celeste spent a few hours in-studio with us last month and we created some magazine and catalog-quality images for her. She's moving to California in about 6 weeks so we're builidng a strong portfolio for her to shop around when she gets to Los Angeles.
Here's an image we made with Celeste last October on location in the Cerrillos area.
Unlike our headshot sessions, we have a 3-hour minimum for modeling portfolio work.
If you're an experienced model wanting to update your personal or professional portfolio, email us for more information.
Till next time -
