Por fin!
I finished my fashion & beauty portfolio finally. Makeup, Photography, and Photoshop editing done by yours truly. The portfolio process began at the end of November, and I feel as though so much work and time has been applied to so few shots. That's the way it goes, I suppose. I still have to print them, and put the contact sheets together. I also have one shot left to edit for my client (whose portfolio I also shot), so it's not over yet. But I'm confident I can get it all wrapped up for the due date, this Friday.
I was supposed to begin Special Effects makeup (!!!!!) today, but there was a schedule conflict, so I begin tomorrow, bright and early at 8:30am. It'll be nice to end at around 2pm instead of 6pm, and good for me to start waking up early.
There has been a lot on my mind that I would like to write about here, but now is not the time. Soon, though. For now...
The order they're in is how I will have them in my portfolio. I think the rhythm is fairly good.
Keep in mind that I was quite liberal with my Photoshop editing, I wanted the main focus to be on the makeup, and didn't want anything else on the face to distract. Funnily enough, I didn't end up editing the makeup much, it was a lot more the skin.
More than half my models have livejournals! Thanks guys!! I can give you more images from your shoots later if you'd like. :)
