When you own a small, local business, you want to make sure your branding and professional headshots are nothing short of the best so you can feel confident about standing out in the community! So when Kendra Bills, owner of In Bloom Flowers and Gifts, needed updated headshots for herself and her team, she turned to AK Makeup Artistry and Colbis Photo! I had the pleasure of meeting Kendra and her team at their storefront in uptown Maumee where I was able to provide makeup on site before they headed out for their pictures. All three ladies wanted simple, natural makeup that allowed them to shine through in the pictures. Afterall, they were set in a flower field of their local supplier, Forget Me Not Farms. I stuck to earth tones and Ardell Natural Lashes to give just a touch of added elegance. We also kept their lips neutral with simple glosses that had just a hint of color creating the perfect finishing touch! When asked about the experience, Kendra said, "I enjoyed seeing the finished result of the makeup session of each of my designers and myself.  You captured each of us and our desire to be the best version of ourselves by enhancing the beauty you saw there, not by trying to make us look like someone we're not, but by working to make us feel beautiful in our own skin.  You were so kind and professional and I appreciate all of your efforts to be there for us that day!"

 It was my honor to meet each of them and I loved getting to know more about their shop and what they do!
