Makeup Artists
By Joe Edelman - The Business of Modeling

Every model should learn how to apply makeup. HOWEVER - when you are building your portfolio - HIRE A Makeup ARTIST!

Your portfolio and comp card pictures are your primary and most important marketing tool. Not only is it important to hire a great photographer, but it is equally as important to hire a great makeup artist.

A good makeup artist not only brings excellent skills and artistry to a shoot - but also is very involved in the creative process and contributes equally with the photographer and model.

As a photographer, I have the pleasure of working with a group of excellent makeup artists from New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Florida. Feel free to take a look at some of their work and the images that they have helped me to create...
