Before & After with Miss A

Here’s another set of Before & After. First, we took a few Before photos without any hair and makeup styling, then AFTER she got her hair and makeup styled, and we recreated those photos again with the same woman, the same outfit, same lighting, and same pose.  Then, we changes things up for something completely different. If this is what we can do with just headshots, image what we can do with a whole body. Special thanks to Lauren Hall of Up Dos For I Dos for styling Miss A’s fabulous hair and makeup. Without further ado, here’s the second of 7:

    Before & After with Miss N

    You asked for Before & After Photos, and we answered with Before, After, and WOW with a headshot/beautyshot series we did this month! We like to go BIG, so instead of just 1 or 2 we have 7 different women that we will share their photos with you. First, we took a few Before photos, then AFTER she got her hair and makeup styled, and we recreated those photos again with the same woman, the same outfit, same lighting, and same pose.  Then, just because we can, we took some other nice headshots/beautyshots and then we changed the lighting to something completely different and took some other looks. Special thanks to Jessica of Royal Volume Salon for styling Miss N’s fabulous hair and makeup. Without further ado, here’s the first of 7:
