Week 9: Makeup & Hair

In the ninth week of the 12 Week Startup course, Sue discusses what having hair and makeup specialists on the team means to her personally and things you need to consider when it comes to glam. She will walk you through the different types of business models, including doing the hair and makeup yourself and outsourcing to professionals, whether you bring them on full time or just contract them for a shoot. There are many levels to choose, and Sue will walk you through each one so you can decide what is best for you and your business.

Topics of discussion include hiring/bartering with hair and makeup artists or going DIY. In the end, the best thing to do is educate your clients on their options and learn what they want.

Whether you are new to being a portrait photographer and need advice from the ground up, or if you are an experienced portrait photographer who wants to take their business to the next level, this course is going to help your business grow.
