contract are good for brides because it lets the bride know that you will be there for her big day, at a certain time, for a certain amount and she can rest assured knowing that she can sue you if you break from that contract. the only thing you may need for a fashion show or a photo shot is release forms if you wants rights to use the photos in your portfolio or on your website...whatever have you. hope that helps

I am a new MUA so I am trying to make sure that I have covered all bases. I have a bridal contract that I have made up which I was told was necessary. My question now is should I have one for like fashion shows and photo shoots, and other things of that nature? It makes me wonder because I have been booked for a fashion show next week and wasn't sure if I should have one signed before.

quick question - how did you go about "creating" your contract for bridal work? Did you have someone help you or did you go about it all on your own?
Michelle C.
I did a google search of makeup artist contracts and found sites where some people had copies of their contracts on their sites. So I downloaded a few and created mine based off of what I found. All I could find were Bridal contracts though, so I am now wondering if a separate contract is need for other services.

Thank you Jordan!! I guess that's why I didn't see any besides bridal when I did my search. You have been a major help!

It's good to also have a simple general contract for photoshoots and events.
