intimately You blog - taking boudoir photography to the next level

…both of them! I’ve been a proud user of Apple Mac and MAC Cosmetics for far longer than I care to remember. I’ve also been excited at the prospect of telling you all about what’s been in the pipeline…

Yesterday, we had a very positive conversation with MAC Cosmetics and as a result there’s a gift for the ladies at the bottom of this post.

But first…

There’s such a difference between doing your own makeup for a photo session - especially an intimately You™ photo session - and having it done by a qualified professional makeup artist.

We always recommend having a professional makeover before your photo session to get the maximum impact for your images. Take a look at flawless Kelly Rowland on her latest album cover, her makeup was applied by professional makeup artist Kamanza (www.kamanza.com), who worked with us when I photographed soul diva Keisha White, Reggie Yates, MC Harvey, Aml and Chucky Venice. Kamanza, like the majority, if not all independent pro makeup artists, use MAC Cosmetics in her repertoire of makeup.

On a slight aside, can you spot any similarity with my award-winning image captured in April 2007 - makeup by Jacqueline of makeupme (www.makeupme.eu)…

You can have a professional makeover at MAC Cosmetics in House of Fraser, Centrale Shopping Centre, simply by telephoning them on 0870 192 5111 to book a consultation with one of their professional makeup artists.

The MAC Cosmetics consultation is £25, you’ll have your makeup applied by one of their qualified professional makeup artists (I’ve worked with Sam and Verity on photo shoots and they’re brilliant), PLUS the consultation fee is redeemable against any products you may purchase.

Here’s our offer…
All the lovely ladies who:

1) book a consultation with MAC Cosmetics in House of Fraser, Centrale Shopping Centre, Croydon followed by
2) your intimately You™ photo session using your complimentary intimately You™ £70 gift card

will receive an additional £25 credit to redeem at your intimately You™ photo session Preview.

Contact us to get three alternative dates/times for your intimately You™ photo session, so that you can schedule your MAC consultation in two hours before your intimately You™ photo session. Then just bring your receipt from your MAC consultation and we’ll validate your additional £25 credit to redeem against intimately You™ products.

It’s been a while, as I’ve been crazy busy.

I’ve already spoken to a few anxious clients about the superb intimately You ‘Select’ days that are coming and it’s starting to get hot now.

Selecting the accessories and props is so exciting, I can hardly wait to tell you all about it.

What I will say is that it’s quick, fun and gorgeous!
