Why I include professional hair and makeup in your session

Why I include professional hair and makeup for your boudoir session:

1. It's an Immediate Confidence Boost.

There are very few women who have the confidence, knowledge and talent to say that they FULLY trust their own hair and makeup application skills. Most women are at best average with their hair and makeup application, and that's OKAY. It's exactly the reason why there are people who's primary full time job is to have this product and application knowledge. I hire a professional hair and makeup artist to ensure that you not only look your very best, but you will FEEL like a damn queen when she's finished. A professional hair and makeup artist will know what products to use and which hair styles will look best for you. The professional Hair and Makeup artist will ensure that not only will you look your best, but that your makeup will stay put for your session. The last think you want is makeup that smears and lashes that lift. The professional Hair and Makeup artists I hire have photo knowledge. They will make you look amazing for you and for ME - to ensure that you will LOVE your portraits. 

Every day makeup looks extremely minimal in photos. Trust the professionals!

2. Less stress for you > Less stress for me.

My hair and makeup artists come to my studio for you. They all run successful businesses, but will bring their business to me JUST FOR YOU. This is important for several reasons. First, you have your hands full with everyday life, this aspect of your shoot should be the least of your worries.  We will be at my studio before you arrive, waiting to make you FEEL like the masterpiece that you are. You will receive all the pampering with a glass of champagne, and1.5 hours in my hair and makeup chair being glammed up. my HMUA's will create an amazing full face makeup application including lashes, and a beautiful hair style will will last through all the posing. And best of all, you get to just sit there and enjoy the experience. It's nice to be pampered, and become a bombshell while you relax.

 3. Less Edits.

Professional Hair and Makeup artists ensure better hair and makeup for you, and less editing for me. You will feel more confident sharing and displaying your final images knowing that it looks just like YOU, and not a photoshopped version of yourself.

4. Get Pampered. And enjoy it.

It's not everyday that you treat yourself to a full face of makeup and a head of perfectly styled hair. When it's time for your boudoir session at our Vancouver, Washington luxury Boudoir studio, we think you deserve it. 

No one can deny how much easier it is when you let a professional help you get all dolled up. You are going to hold onto these photos forever, meaning that you will want to be confident about how amazing you look each and every time you pull out your boudoir photo album. When you invest in a session with Trillium and Fir, I invest in the BEST HMUA's for you. Because you deserve it. You deserve a day to feel like the most beautiful you.

5. Nervousness disappears in the Hair and Makeup chair.

Everyone shows up nervous. EVERYONE. There is always a little self doubt that you won't look like the other women in my portfolio.  While you are in the chair, I'm puttering around watering plants, probably redecorating for the 100th time, or sitting and chatting with you to get to know you better. For 1.5 hrs you get pampered while listening to your favorite music, sipping on champagne, and laughing with my HMUA.  You will feel like you had the needed girl time a lot of us crave. It's a good feeling! You feel great about YOU and that feeling gives you the confidence to start your boudoir shoot like a bombshell BABE. By the time it's time to start, you are ready and you are excited.
