Is it time to get a new professional headshot? Have you ever had a studio headshot with professional hair and makeup services? If not, let me tell you why it makes a big difference.
Shana Astrachan applying makeup before a photo session
I was a photo client myself a few years ago and experienced a portrait session in the controlled environment of a comfortable studio with a hair and makeup artist on-site. I went into the session wearing the minimal amount of make-up that I usually wear and one of the three outfits I planned to capture in the photos. After choosing background colors with the photographer, I spent fifteen minutes in the makeup artist's chair. She took care of the mascara smeared on my eyelid, applied a natural amount of makeup that made me feel years younger, tickled soft brushes everywhere to tame the shine, and herded my flyaway hairs to better places. It was soothing and spa-like to sit in that chair and transition away from my stressful day and toward the moment before the camera. I felt relaxed and attractive, which is exactly how you want to feel when having your photo taken.
I now offer studio portrait sessions in my San Francisco studio in Potrero Hill, and am partnering up with local hair and makeup artist Shana Astrachan to offer a limited number of sessions for a special rate on Sunday, August 27. Details & Booking Here. We can't wait to work with you!
