Purple Beauty

In this shoot we demonstrate how the tones of purple can give life not only to the model but on the set as well. We use all tones of purple to bring out the features on the model, this can be seen from the purple smokey eyes and light tint on the cheek bones. The deep purple to blue backdrop helps the skin look extra smooth and elongate the body. We hope that these photo's display a great way that purple can be used to enhance any models portfolio. http://makeupbysuheli.com/
