Make up for 12 year old doing first photo shoot

[Domino25]

My 12 yr old DD is doing her first photo shoot on Sunday. We've hired a beautiful tutu and just wondered what ideas you have for make up styles.

Hello Domino,

 

I've added the tag "makeup"  to your thread.  If you click on that a number of threads come up that may have useful advice not only for now but the future.

 

Does the tutu indicate a character eg Kitri or Aurora or Odette?  That could influence how you apply the eye shadows/liner and even lip colour.

 

Could her teacher offer you any advice?

Might be worth having a look at some of the backstage photos from ballet companies for ideas. I feel like I watched a tutorial from Olivia Cowley possibly ?

Yes, the thread comes up if you use the tag.

What is your photo shoot for? Is it in a studio, theatre or on location? 

Check out Instagram for ideas too, I take a lot of photos for my dd who is 12. 

My dd does own make up, we tend to avoid eyeliner, blue eye shadow (stick to neutral tones), concealer, mascara, touch of bronzer/ blush and just a tinted vasaline for lips. Natural fresh look.

My DD did a Jon Applegate shoot and he requested light make up as stage make up doesn’t work well with the lighting if that helps? 😊
