Central Coast Makeup Artists and Photographers I recommend
OPTIONAL *ADD-ON SERVICES FOR YOUR VIP FILMING DAY
You did it! You finally took the plunge, stopped agonising over ‘What to post!?’ and booked in a VIP filming day with ‘that-social-media-girl-with-the-THICK-eyebrows-and-the-impossible-to-pronounce-name’
AKA, Moi
*claps for you, my friend; WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A RIOT
As many of you know by now, this is a premium service I offer to my clients whereby I come-to-you and film in-person with you. I seperate these types of clients into 2 categories:
Those of you who are attending/hosting/speaking at an event of some kind and want me to come along to document it all, take some photos and put together some reels, OR
Those of you wanting to batch create a tonne of video content in the one day at your house/office/shop/airbnb. Perhaps you’re stockpiling content for an upcoming launch, even!
Depending on your situation, it may be necessary for you to factor in and book other creative peeps to help you get the most out of your content creation day with me.
Allow me to explain….
Say you’re used to just slapping on some tinted moisturiser and swiping some crusty, old mascara over your lashes. Perhaps you’d like to book a makeup artist to take care of you on this occasion? I have some names I can recommend
While we’re at it & you’re all dolled up, swanning about an aesthetic Airbnb mansion (or, insert wherever else we’ll be) it might make sense for you to add on a mini-branding-shoot!? Again, allow me to be of service. I’ve worked with some great, local photographers that I know you’ll love
To make life easier for you I decided to write this blog post with a list of people I have worked with in the past and can recommend.
MAKE UP ARTISTS I’VE WORKED WITH
Taylor, Holidai Beauty Gosford
Makeup By April (located, Saratoga but can also travel to site for a fee)
Makeup Artistry by Daniella (works out of Mayfair The Salon at Erina)
Elke Jean Hair & Makeup
If you can’t secure one of the face wizards from my list above, rest assured you’re also in pretty safe hands with the girls at MECCA Erina Fair. The makeup for ‘natural' costs $120 and ‘glam’ makeup is $150 but this can be redeemable for products purchased in store. HOT TIP: Wait till you’ve run out of your foundation and a few other things & then you can book your makeup to be done on the same day.
PHOTOGRAPHERS I’VE WORKED WITH
Ingrid Sjodahl - Ingrid has had such a diverse photography career, from fashion editorials, commercials to cooperate headshots – to branding photography - I know you’ll love her shots as much as I loved mine when I worked with her.
Claire, Oak Street Creative Co. If this name/face looks familiar to you it’s because we recently launched a Content Creation Day offer together! Claire owns and runs a creative agency that specialises in graphic design and personal branding photography for women in business. She recently opened a BRAND NEW studio space in Gosford too (Studio Central Coast).
Chris Sulpha - Chris and I worked together on a fashion photoshoot for a client and he’s quick, agile (poor guy had to scamper over rocks and run over hot sand on our shoot day - in 40 degree heat) and has a natural eye for ‘the shot’. He’s also runs fitness retreats and co-hosts breath work retreats. Very cool. Look him up here and here.
Jaypee (Coast Wedding Photography). Jaypee is predominantly a wedding photographer but I’ve worked with him on fashion/modelling type shoots quite a few times and everything he snaps is beautiful and his photos are some of my favourite. He’s also captured a number of family portraits for us and our extended family.
I’m confident you’ll find the right fit for YOU from my recommendations above and I’ll continue to add to this resource as I get to meet more local creatives
