Blaire Rose Makeup Tutorial!

Last year I got the chance to work with Blaire Rose last year and shoot a makeup tutorial for her. This was the first full makeup tutorial I had shot for a client at the time. The experience was great and Blaire was a great person to work with. Here is some info about here and the link to the video we filmed. Please be sure to like and subscribe to her youtube channel.

Blaire Rose is the owner of Snatch Her Face, LLC est. April 2019. She has in been in beauty industry for years but finally decided to manifest her own brand. Snatch Her Face provides makeup artistry services, a cosmetic brand that’s launching Aug. 2020, beauty blogger, entrepreneur speaker and more. Blaire Rose didn’t find makeup it found her. The impact is more powerful than the creativity and I’m honored to be an upcoming beauty icon. Blaire Rose is the Jack and Jill of the industry. No matter the task she does it with feminism.

Brittney & Jarvis Engagement Session | Jackson, MS

"Our love story wasn’t so perfect. When Jarvis and I first met I couldn’t stand him. It was an automatic no new friends zone, 'Don’t look at me or talk to me' type thing. It was completely opposite for Jarvis though, he thought the world of me and I just couldn’t understand why because I was always so mean to him. After months of Jarvis trying to befriend me, he finally said something that I actually thought was funny. That was the little spark that started a new beginning for us. It is true when they say opposites do attract. Lol "

A few months ago I had the pleasure of capturing these images of Brittany and Jarvis engagement session. When Brittney first came to me and described the look they wanted for their shoot I was so excited and immediately had the perfect locations in mind in downtown Jackson Mississippi. My goal was to make it look like I was in a bigger city than Jackson.

When I asked about their love story this is what Brittney had to say below! Enjoy the images!

For Washington for Worse

You meet people who you instantly connect with and you think, this could possibly be my husband/wife. Well that wasn't the case with Kametrice & Quinton. They began their love journey in 2008 while still in high school. A daily walk around the block became a love story in the making. Love licks and all night phone calls brought these two together.

For today's blog I would like to share with you a love story and an engagement session that I shot for Kametrice & Quinton at Grace Gardens in Richland, MS. Below is their love story as told by Kametrice.

The two were constantly on and off with their relationship. But no matter the time apart, the two always found their way back to each other. A great connection was bonded. Kametrice went to college and the distance made things rocky but they maintained.

They then had their 1st child "Kinsley" while Kametrice was still in college. Her birth brought them closer than before. Juggling school, work, & a long distance relationship. Kametrice needed all support she could get to keep a level head. Quinton traveled every weekend to Starkville to help with baby duties. It took a lot of patience and time to get where they are now.

MAKEUP BY CHELSEY | YOUNG ENTREPRENEUR

I love showing the work of other young entrepreneurs. Today I'd like to introduce you to Chelsey who is a very talented makeup artist in Jackson, MS. She is very passionate about makeup artistry and views it as a way to express herself, free of restraints.

Screen Shot 2017-09-27 at 6.41.01 PM.png

I love showing the work of other young entrepreneurs. Today I'd like to introduce you to Chelsey who is a very talented makeup artist in Jackson, MS. She is very passionate about makeup artistry and views it as a way to express herself, free of restraints.

Chelsey started taking makeup seriously late 2013. Compared to some she is very new to the industry! Although she has had no formal training she has learned everything through much practice and research. Chelsey’s first cosmetic job was Estee Lauder. Since then she has worked at Sephora, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics and currently Maison Weiss.

Most of her clients know her for creating a "natural look", or what she calls “Nude Glam”. It's her trademark. This look goes beyond just "natural". It enhances what's there, and adds a dose of glam. This look isn't a carbon copy on each of her client's faces. She enhances the features that make you, YOU. That’s why she feels so many of her clients love the look. They still see themselves when she hands them the mirror. Pushing herself to push her business has been an exciting journey for her and she considers this as only the beginning!

You can see more of her work on  instagram page @makeupbychels or website http://makeupbychels.com/

Screen Shot 2017-09-27 at 6.47.14 PM.png

Now that you know a little bit about Chelsey let me share with you a project we recently collaborated on. The idea originally started as a photoshoot but we decided to shoot video as well. If you know me you know I’m passionate about both so I’m always glad when I can do both for a shoot. The best thing about this shoot it that it allowed us to play around with a few ideas and concepts we have both wanted to experiment with.

Before and After of our model Imani, Makeup by Chelsey

Check out the video and images captured during the shoot below! Also, special thanks to our model for the shoot Imani, who brought some serious SLAY, and my friend and fellow Photographer Donald Bilbro for coming and assisting me with the shoot even shooting some behind-the-scenes shots! You can follow Imaniand Donald @photo_by_bilbro on instagram.
