Summarize the following:
While they don’t have to be professional models, find people whose makeup you enjoy doing and whose faces are compatible with your style. Consider snapping some "before and after" photos of your models to include in your portfolio. Consider doing trade-for-print work with models. Ask your friend who's making a music video if she could use your makeup artistry services, or offer to do your coworker's wedding makeup. You'll hone your skills and start making a name for yourself at the same time. You may even need to volunteer your services in the beginning stages of your career to develop more content for your portfolio. Consider investing in a high-end camera or hire a photographer to help you put your portfolio together. The quality of the photographs can make or break a portfolio. If you’re still early in your career, it’s acceptable to take photos with your phone camera. Just make sure that your photos are well-lit and crisp. Your portfolio should reflect the brand you are creating. Your best, most creative work should be showcased at the front so prospective clients get an immediate impression of your unique talent. Include a range of makeup styles, from fashion to special effects to film and television. Your portfolio should exist both online and in print. The benefit of an online portfolio is that it reaches a larger audience and can be promoted through various forms of social media.
Find models to showcase your looks. Get creative with collaborations to build your portfolio. Take high-quality photographs of your work. Create a compelling portfolio that features all types of makeup styles.
