Hi all,
I understand that you are supposed to look natural and not overly "made up" for headshots. I will be taking some new shots soon and I would like to know what you think about eye makeup. The makeup artist and photographer will probably have their own ideas, but I just wanted other opinions, so I'll know if my preference (to go dark around the top and bottom) is out of line with industry standards. I attached two photos that were similar except for the eye makeup. One is heavier with a coal color on the top lid, while the other is more natural. Is the heavier makeup too much? I feel like my eyes don't pop without the darker color around them. Or is there even a difference, LOL... I appreciate your constructive feedback. By the way, I am not using either of these photos for headshots. They are just a couple of snapshots. I know that the jewelry and apparel are not appropriate.
Thanks! |
