One of my favorite forms of photography has to be beautography portraits. It’s most likely because I’m a girl and I appreciate the makeup artistry at work, but at the same time, these photographers have become more innovative with not only their particular shots, but also with the direction they give to their makeup artists.
Check out these beautography portraits to see the directions cosmetic, hair and photography industries are going down. Perhaps it’ll inspire your holiday looks.
