Elizabeth Rose MUA
Canon Z115 35mm
I met Elizabeth about a decade ago in Kalamazoo, Michigan through what I can only describe as an extraordinary series of events. She has been and will always be one of my nearest and dearest friends.
We are sincerely joined at the soul.
Elizabeth is by far one of the most creative and talented cosmetologists I know.
Her makeup artistry is captivating, gorgeous, and truly unique.
One glance at her Instagram and it's completely obvious.
Elizabeth graduated from Empire Beauty School in Portage, MI with a degree in Cosmetology. Currently working for Juice Beauty as an Account Coordinator, outside of her daily work schedule Elizabeth also freelances and has a super fun YouTube channel where she gives makeup tips, tricks, and tutorials as well as product reviews.
This Summer, Elizabeth and I took a day to hang out and play around with my two cheap but functional cameras at her house where the scenery is absolutely gorgeous. My main focus was to promote her artistry and essentially get some awesome portraits... which is not at all difficult with a natural beauty like Liz.
Here are some of my favorites :)
