My first makeup artist interview...


My first makeup artist interview...

Now On youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qe8lwB5flGs

I had met a wonderful woman named Monica via email. I had contacted her as I sent out copies of my resume, portfolio pictures and a cover letter in order to spread the word that I was a new makeup artist out there ready to work. Monica responded among many others, but none wanted to help quite like she did. She had been a makeup artist herself and experienced the struggle that making the job a success is. She gathered all of the relevant information from me and created a number of website profiles for me such as a profile on http://www.makeuplistings.com/. She began forwarding clients to me who were in search of a makeup artist for their graduations and weddings. I had enquiries and bookings coming in and I was so thankful for her help.

Later I recieved a request to join up to a www.meetup.com group entitled, Vancouver Makeup Artists and Beauty Lovers, http://www.meetup.com/Vancouver-Makeup-Artists-Beauty-Lovers. I was appointed admin of this group and helped in the organisation of our first meetup which I have previously blogged about, http://fayesmithmakeupartist.blogspot.com/2010/03/faye-smith-makeup-hair-artists-review.html. Little did I know, the first organiser of Vancouver Makeup Artist & Beauty Lovers, Constantin, was actually Monica's husband! They are doing so much to try and promote me as an artist, and I have never known any two strangers be so kind and helpful in all of my life. A truely warm hearted couple that I wish to stay in touch with for the duration of my time as a makeup and hair artist.
