Gabby-Portland Senior Rep

Gabby is LavendaSeniors newest senior rep.  She loves makeup and was all about having her makeup done.  For some people it's really hard to have someone else be near their eyes but she was totally relaxed.  It was actually pouring while I was doing her makeup but everything cleared up just in time for us to head outdoors.  I was digging her colorful wardrobe and that scarf!  Lavenda captured the sun beautifully behind Gabby while she was wearing her sunglasses.  Getting senior portraits done is a highlight of many high school students and I'm thrilled to be a part of their experience.

Take a moment (or two) for yourself this weekend and breath.       

HD makeup vs. everyday makeup

I hope you are having a terrific Tuesday!  The IMATS in Vancouver, B.C. was a great experience and I gained some more makeup knowledge in the process.  It was a gorgeous day in Vancouver, I can't wait to go back there on vacation.  Without a doubt, one of my top favorite international cities.

Now on to today's topic.  Many people wonder what the difference is between HD makeup and regular makeup.  And why should I hire a professional makeup artist who uses HD makeup for my wedding or senior portraits?  The picture above shows you what happens when you combine an awesome photographer and a top of the line camera with everyday makeup.  You can literally see the makeup and the coverage isn't invisible as it should be.  HD makeup creates a soft focus effect for the camera, covers imperfections, and can withstand bright and harsh lighting.  It also means less work for a photographer in editing the images.  I hope this visual was helpful in showing you the difference. 

Sneak peak of tomorrow's dazzling senior, Shelby!
