My make-up artist is someone that I've recently met. At my first appointment we hit it off. She's a wife, a mother, and a consultant for Younique.
Before meeting Ashley, I had no idea what Younique was. I'm not much of a make-up wearer. I did a little research and found out some great things that this beauty company does. It sets itself apart not only by their high quality ingredients with a goal to provide healthy, clean, and pure cosmetics, but they also support and defend women and children in the fight against sexual abuse. As you know, I am a volunteer for The Martin House locally, which encourages potential adolescent victims of abuse to come forward and speak out. Knowing that Younique is such a big supporter of these victims, I am seeing what I can do to help. Just purchasing their make-up is a beginning.
Ashley has done my make-up twice. Once we did a test run and then I had her apply my personal branding session make-up. Being a photographer, I don't get to be in front of the camera very often, so I wanted to make sure I looked natural, but good. Once, before I moved to Longview, I had a make-up artist use a white foundation on me. People, I am not extremely tan, but I am not white. My face did not look natural. It was a real disappointment.
Ashley did such a good job and understood the look I was going for. I'll be sharing my personal branding images soon. They'll be posted on my website in a week, I hope. I digress. When Ashley and I set an appointment, she was careful to take into consideration the shape of my face, my eyes, and asked for images to show her the look I was hoping for. I had never had anyone ask me some of those things. I had never considered that not all eyelids are created equal. lol It actually makes a big difference on the way eye make-up looks. Just like we can't all have those gorgeous full lips naturally, we don't all have the ideal eyelids either.
Some of my exciting news is that Ashley will be available to take your make-up appointment should you like to have that added onto your next photography session. Who doesn't enjoy being pampered?! She's also able to do make-up outside of my connection for engagements, bridals, and wedding party make-up. You are welcome to contact her directly at (626) 379-1125, ashleybri88@gmail.com, www.youniqueproducts.com/ashleyquintanilla or you can reach out to me and I'll connect you.
Shout out to Sola Salon in Longview, Texas for allowing us to use a studio space for this session. If you're not familiar with Sola, you can learn more about them here: https://www.solasalonstudios.com/locations/longview. There are several hair designers and a nail technician under one roof there.
I look forward to helping you look great at your next photography session with me! You'll like Ashley, she's southern sweet.
Blessings,
Zoe
