MUAS & HAIRSTYLISTS

Please register and pay the fee prior the shoot at least 1 week in advance.If you cancel you most let us know with time to find a replacement.If you cancel you cannot get a refund since we count with your fee to pay the rented location.Muas please bring immaculately clean brushes and equipment and many different fake eyelashes.Bring tall chair, your own light with extension cord,and come well dressed, please try to avoid sleeve-less & low cut blouses. 

Hairstylists need to bring the exact same additional equipment as MUAS, also a power strip to connect all your tools, we do not provide them, also make sure you bring heavy protection to cover tables and chairs before putting any hot irons anywhere.Your hair tools and brushes must be disinfected and clean. 

The Director will check personally all equipment for sterilization and overall quality and safety during shoots.

For everybody: MUAs do makeup, Hairstylists do hair.Wardrobe designers bring clothes..."You are not a photographer" so please do NOT take photos with cell phones, do not stand in the shooting area, do not direct the models, don't distract or talk to photographers or ask them to how you their shots from cameras, this only slow down the shoot and is a waste of time.

We are a group and several photographers will provide you with great quality photos, if you want all of us to give you good shots please work *fast*, try to avoid wasting time chit-chatting with models and do not pay attention to their demands or complains, you work for the group and only the Director of the group can make decissions about changes, styles, makeup colors, hair, accessories, wardrobe changes, etc.

Time is very important

As artists we understand that art takes time.If you come late, you will give us a bad impression about your reliability and we probably will not contact you again.We, as a group required a lot of time to shoot and prepare,that's why typically our shoots last 5-7 hours sometimes more, if the makeup and hair takes for ever the photographers get upset and they don't shoot well tired or mad and they won't come again to our shoots and you probably neither.

We want good work done fast, people who follow instructions well and don't give us hard time are welcome to shoot with us many times and we appreciate your cooperation a lot

Warning: We have zero tolerance for Divas and big headed people who give us hardtime.Remember we do this events just to create art, enjoy a nice day among artists and to network.We provide you with a great service almost free so just be nice and enjoy the shoot.Thank you!
