When planning some of life’s biggest moments, it’s important to think about all the little details. Whether it’s your high school graduation, prom, homecoming or even high school senior photos you’ll think about locations, outfits, manicures, hairstyle, and even your makeup. Hiring a professional makeup artist for these moments can not only elevate your look, but it can also add to your experience. Below I’ve listed a few makeup artists I recommend in the Oshkosh area as well as the importance of hiring a professional. I hope it helps you as you search for makeup artists in Oshkosh Wi.
As an Oshkosh senior photographer, I recommend considering professional makeup for a couple of reasons. If you have skin imperfections and struggle with things like acne, scars, etc then a makeup artist is going to be your saving grace! They know how to cover up your imperfections and will make it look completely natural. Another situation where I’d recommend a professional makeup artist is if you’re not comfortable doing your own makeup. If you don’t typically do your makeup or you’re worried it might be too much pressure, then hire a makeup artist. This will make your overall experience way more enjoyable without the stress of applying your own makeup.
When searching for makeup artists in Oshkosh Wi, I highly recommend reaching out to at least two – three different artists. This way you can compare your options and ask any questions you may have before booking. I would look at their portfolio and make sure that you like their work. If you have a preference on type of makeup application, look through their website or send them a quick email. It’s important that you find someone who will give you the look you want because your makeup is going to be in every single photo at prom, homecoming, senior photos and graduation.
I know many of the high school students I’ve worked with in the past prefer to have a more natural look. To ensure that you have a finished look, but still feel like yourself just let your makeup artist know that you want a soft glam look that focuses on your natural beauty. The makeup artists listed below definitely understand this style of makeup and will be able to help you!

She works with each of her clients closely to ensure that she provides the perfect customized services for you. Katie typically applies makeup with an airbrush and will have you looking flawless. Her experience with skincare is also amazing and she can offer you advice about a regimen leading up to your session. I’ve recommended Katie for years and she’s one of my preferred makeup artists in Oshkosh Wi.
Another makeup artist in Oshkosh I recommend is Alyssa Brayton of Beauty Mark Studio. She’s a professional makeup artist who loves to help her clients look and feel their best for life’s biggest moments. Alyssa prefers the traditional application for makeup as she feels it provides better coverage and gives a more complete look. She goes above and beyond for each of her clients ensuring that you love your makeup look. Alyssa is incredible at what she does and she offers some of the most stunning makeup looks in the Oshkosh area.
