Paloma Ortiz

Beauty – Portland

As a makeup artist for eight years now, there\'s nothing I have enjoyed more than the art I\'ve been able to create upon live moving canvases. Iv\'e met many goals and dreams in my career. I\'ve had the pleasure of working with Miss Oregon 2012, publications in nationwide magazines, and worked with amazing artists. Being a self taught makeup artist, I found my passion in what I was able to learn along the way and the knowledge I could spread to others aspiring to accomplish the same dreams and goals I had. I struggled to create a strong portfolio by being my own photographer, stylist, hair stylist, and of course makeup artist. I didn\'t want to this hardship to stop others from pursuing their dreams, so I made it my mission to help aspiring models build their portfolios from scratch, leading most to get booking and signed onto agencies. My passion to help others continues to this day and doing that by helping people feel beautiful through makeup is what I\'m drawn to. I hope to continue meeting my goals and dreaming as big as I can. Because I live for and love what I do everyday.
