Laurel Black
Thanks for your interest in booking a test shoot with me! I specialize in beauty photography and I love working with both experienced and development models to capture stunning imagery that makes your portfolio stand out and helps you attract the modeling jobs that you want.
All photoshoots take place at my studio in 12South in Nashville, TN.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
* 4 hour in-studio beauty photoshoot
* 3 beauty/makeup looks
* 8 final retouched photos
* You can purchase additional photos for $45/image
* Studio fees included
Rate: $675 (team not included)
HAIR / MAKEUP: $200-$250
For the shoot, we'll need a hair & makeup artist on set. Below is a list of the HMUAs I prefer to work with. Take a look at their work and let me know which artist you'd like to have on set. Once you select one of them, I'll coordinate with them about scheduling the shoot. (Note: You'll pay the HMUA directly.)
Preferred Hair & Makeup Artists:
Christin Cook @christincookzitobeauty
Katie Galliher @katiegalliher
Lauren Martinez @laurendaniellemua
WARDROBE STYLING:
Depending on the looks you want to capture, we might need wardrobe styling. A good option for beauty test shoots is to style it yourself by using your moodboard as a reference. If you want me to style the shoot, it's $150 (note: I only style simple looks and this requires 2 weeks lead time). If you want to work with a wardrobe stylist, below is a list of stylists that I recommend who you can contact for their rates.
Preferred Stylists
Olivia Rose Mobley @oliviarosestyling
Taylor Richardson @styledbyleightaylor
