Overview
Add a makeup artist to your Match Studios booking.
Match Studios offers makeup artist support at its 545 8th Ave studios in Midtown Manhattan for $440 per 1–4 hr production booking and $875 for 5–10 hr bookings. The add-on pairs with studio rental from $82/hr and includes on-set touch-ups through the session, working from the in-studio hair and makeup station. Clients can add a professional makeup artist to headshot, portrait, beauty, editorial, commercial, or brand content sessions. Makeup is a practical production add-on here, not a separate beauty booking.
Makeup add-on
Camera-ready makeup for studio sessions.
The makeup artist add-on supports natural grooming, polished professional looks, beauty direction, and editorial makeup depending on the session. It is especially useful when the client wants the final image or video to feel more finished on camera.

How it fits
Book makeup with the studio, not as a separate workflow.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I add a makeup artist to any studio booking?
A makeup artist can be added to many production bookings, including headshots, portraits, beauty, editorial, commercial, and brand content sessions. Availability must be confirmed around the selected studio time.
How is the makeup artist priced?
Makeup Artist is priced by the selected production block: $440 for 1–4 hr production bookings and $875 for 5–10 hr production bookings.
Is the makeup look natural or full glam?
The look is matched to the project. Many clients book clean natural grooming for headshots and portraits, while beauty and editorial looks can be requested for more styled sessions.
When should I request makeup support?
Request makeup support when you book so artist availability, prep time, and the studio schedule can be confirmed before the session.
Does makeup prep count toward my studio time?
Yes. Makeup prep happens inside the booked studio window unless another written arrangement is confirmed. Build enough time into the booking for prep before shooting begins.
What happens if I cancel or reschedule a booking with makeup?
Crew, vendor, rental, and special-order add-ons are confirmed around your studio booking and may be non-refundable once reserved. If you need to reschedule, both studio availability and artist availability must be confirmed. The Terms & Conditions remain the source of truth for cancellation and rescheduling policy.
