I often think we underestimate the value of having makeup professionally done.  When I was editing this momma's gallery I reached out to her to see if her makeup was professionally done. It makes a big difference and I could tell! 

If you aren't sure about spending the extra money or feeling "too extra" here are some reasons to consider:

1. Boosts your confidence: Pregnancy can bring a lot of changes to a woman's body and some may feel self-conscious about their appearance. Having professional hair and makeup can help boost your confidence and make you feel more comfortable in front of the camera.

2. Enhance natural features: A professional hair and makeup artist can help enhance your natural features and create a look that complements your individual style and personality. This can help bring out the best in you and make you look and feel your best for your maternity pictures.

3. Create a cohesive look: This can ensure your hair and makeup complement your outfit and the overall theme of the photoshoot, creating a polished and put-together look.

For your next family or maternity session, I would encourage you to go all out! Get professional hair and makeup done. Afterall, you will have these photos to look back on for years and years.
