My vision for Runamuk Photography & Makeup Artistry has always been to enhance women's self-esteem by providing them with inspired hair design, makeup artistry, and wardrobe styling paired with perfected poses in a comfortable, safe and supportive environment. I have been a photographer most of my life, but professionally since 2009 (a makeup artist since 1997) and take pride in creating a high level of comfort during sessions and trust between myself and my clients. I want to show ALL women how beautiful they are!!!
I am perfectly imperfect. I have a lowbrow sense of humor and a highbrow IQ. I'm part dreamer, part realist. I'm mostly introverted but can be equal parts introvert and extrovert, (whatever you need). A connoisseur of the irreverent + untamed; but also a purveyor of the quiet + peaceful.
I am an empath, a nurturer and a tough-love hard-ass with a soft voice. I am a born healer even though I myself have broken parts, too. But more than anything, I am a woman that is confident in who she is and wants the same kind of joy for you. I know that life is simply too important to take oneself too seriously. And, if you read this far, something tells me you believe this, too.
Like you, I've battled my shyness, my insecurities, my dysfunctions and my demons. But the DNA of my inner artist knew that these "imperfections" were the perfect recipe for being able to show up for others. To show them that they are loved and supported while becoming ART. I believe that there are wonderful adjectives living inside each of us. They are more than words; They're feelings and dreams trapped within, like tiny prisoners. Beautiful. Accomplished. Strong. Liberated. Sensual. Courageous. Amazing. Perfect. We each have our own imprisoned adjectives, which are often buried so deep by the years of poor conditioning, we cannot even fathom such beautiful words can belong to us, too.
My job is to make you feel like the most beautiful person on the planet. More than a photo session, this is a life experience that allows you to see YOURSELF with kind, generous eyes. You become ART. Your definition of beauty is personal and unique. Your ideas of sensuality are just as unique, too. I design your session accordingly.
As your dedicated artist, I choose a creative genius of photography that allows me to give you an inspired, dreamy, romantic interpretation of real/sensual/beautiful YOU... I hold your hand as your ambassador of empowerment!
