Simple Make Up and Hair (not bridal) for a Honeymoon Photo Shoot

[Minkishly]

I'm looking to get my hair and make up done for our honeymoon photo session, but I'm having a little trouble. So far, all the artists I've approached mostly do bridal make up which is quite a bit over my budget for a casual 2 hours photo session.

So far, I've received replies from:

Beaute Speciale
Laura Reynolds Artistry

I've also reached out to True Love Bridal Beauty, Luma Bridal and some other salons and am waiting on their reply, but I'm starting to think that $180 - $250 seems to be the standard pricing.

I think the problem I'm having is that they all provide bridal make up, whereas I'm really looking for something simpler (ie bridesmaid make up.. and the price tag that goes with it!)

Are there any vendors at all who can provide a simpler style of hair and make up that is more.. engagement photo shoot than full-on bridal? I would even consider travelling to the salon.

At this point, I'm actually thinking of foregoing professional cosmetology because I can't really justify the cost for such a short photo shoot.

We're doing a honeymoon shoot when we go down in October and ran into a similar issue. Most of the vendors we priced out charge the same price for hair and makeup for a wedding vs any other occasion. Most we found are in the $150-$300 range for hair and makeup, plus travel fees for many of them to come to you. I do know Makeup by Evelisse is more affordable than some of the other Orlando vendors, and a few of my friends have used her. They've said great things about her too.
