Senior Photos in Dublin, OH with Claudine Kosier

Let’s be real—getting in front of the camera can feel a little intimidating, right? One of the most common questions I get from teens before their senior photos is:

“Do I really need professional hair and makeup?”

Short answer? Yes. But probably not for the reasons you’re thinking.

Professional hair and makeup aren’t just about looking extra polished — it’s about making sure you’re truly camera-ready.

Everyday makeup can sometimes look beautiful in person but end up appearing washed out or uneven under professional lighting and high-resolution cameras. Camera-ready makeup is specially designed to enhance your natural features, balance skin tone, and ensure you look vibrant, confident, and flawless in every single shot.

It’s Not About Looking Different—It’s About Feeling Amazing

This isn’t about turning you into someone else. It’s about helping you show up as your most confident, glowing, camera-ready self. Whether your vibe is soft and natural or a little more glam, my hair and makeup artists are so good at enhancing what’s already there—no heavy filters or overdone looks needed.

Makeup That Lasts (Even Through Ohio Summers!)

We all know that Columbus weather can be a little... unpredictable. From warm sunny evenings to humid golden hours, professional-grade makeup is key. My team uses long-lasting, photo-friendly products that hold up through the heat, so you’ll look fresh and fabulous from the first photo to the very last.

Hair That Moves With You

Whether you're feeling soft waves, a loose braid, or a simple polished pony, we’ll create a look that photographs beautifully and feels like you. No stiff curls or pageant styles here—just movement, texture, and natural beauty that shines through.

You’ll Feel the Confidence—And See It in Every Shot

When you show up feeling good, it shows. You won’t be worrying about flyaways or melting mascara—you’ll be relaxed, in the moment, and fully ready to shine. That ease and confidence? It makes a huge difference in your photos.

And that’s exactly why I include professional hair and makeup with every session—it’s part of the experience that helps you feel amazing.
