When people find out I'm a makeup artist, they instantly think of beauty and glamour. While bridal makeup in Syracuse NY and the surrounding areas of Upstate NY is a huge part of my job another part of my job is commercial work.
A commercial makeup artist makes "talent", the people featured in video and print ads, look like polished versions of themselves. Nothing fancy.
Here's some behind the scenes from a commercial shoot in Ithaca NY for a Senior living community. The talent consisted of residents at the property.

| Our talent had rescued her dog companion a couple months prior to the shoot. She'd never been outside on grass before she was rescued! |
 |
| My job ensures all talent is camera ready. She got a good brushing before her call time. |
