Why I love professional hair & makeup for senior photos
When I starting shooting senior photos, the experience I offered was so basic compared to the one I offer today. One of those differences is coordinating hair and makeup the day of the senior photo session for my seniors. Session days start at the Stay Wild Studios with professional hair and makeup.
I’ve seen firsthand the confidence boost that good hair and makeup provides. If you’re feeling and looking good, you’re more confident. If you’re more confident, you rock those poses and come out of your shell faster and I love that.
The hair and makeup artists that I work with know exactly how much makeup to apply for natural looks and how to create staying power for curls that can hold up in the Kansas wind. I have the best team!
