I have always had a creative side and my love of photography started out at a young age; dressing up my pets for photo shoots, taking pictures of nature and flowers and then begging my mom to develop all the rolls right away so I could see what I had created. I took art classes in high school with a focus on painting and this passion continued to grow into something that I couldn't give up and kne
w was going to become a life long career. After high school I ventured off to Chicago to live & attend Harrington College of Design where I earned my Associates Degree in Digital Photography. Since then, I have been capturing many milestones for people including engagement, newborn, weddings and more! My passion for beautiful things sparked an interest in wanting to use my hands to create again so I decided to go back to school to become a Cosmetologist. I attended Paul Mitchell the School Tinley Park and became licensed in 2012. After graduation I started doing hair in my hometown of Wilmington, worked with Smashbox Cosmetics as a Studio Artist (makeup artist) and traveling all over doing bridal party hair and makeup services. Currently, I am working at Styles on Broadway in Coal City, IL, freelancing as a bridal hair stylist & makeup, and still capturing memories for my amazing clients! I truly get to say that I love what I do and really mean every word! I would love to work with you & help capture memories for you to cherish forever. facebook.com/jfavhairmakeup
