Portfolio Project Features Sarah Barlow

The Porfolio Project Launch in June 2011 was a success. First featured portfolio is of Sarah Barlow....


Japanese American makeup artist Sarah Barlow has always had a strong artistic flair that is deeply rooted in her childhood and cultural heritage. Coming from a creative and musically inclined family she pursued a degree in art and continues to nurture her painting skills. Sarah recently moved to Denver and enrolled in the cosmetology program at the Aveda Institute where she is working to build a career that stimulates her creativity and passion.

In 2010 Sarah attended the Denver Academy of Makeup (DAM) instructed by world-renowned makeup artist Rudy Miles. During the final day of DAM she saw her work come to life on the set of her first photo shoot and she knew she had found her true calling. Sarah has participated in multiple hair and makeup shows and competitive events to continue growing her craft. Staying active in her field, on top of current trends, and acquiring new techniques through continued education is what makes Sarah’s talent excel and stand out.

Sarah Barlow offers makeup and hair styling services for bridal, print, film and is available to travel.

How the Portfolio Project came about...

Rudy Miles, Crystal Allen and I (Shauna Intelisano) have been working together to produce DAM, The Denver Academy of Makeup, since 2008. During which time we have been inspired by working with each other as well as talented makeup artists and models.

This has compelled us to put together the Portfolio Project, a workshop focused on makeup for photography and creating a portfolio that can get makeup artists to the next level in the industry.

The following images were made about a year ago. Shortly after we conceptualized the Portfolio Project we got together, on the fly, to create...

Makeup by Rudy Miles, Model Leena Geeter, Clothing by Funklectic, Photographer Shauna Intelisano


Funklectic gave me a bunch of colorful, fun creations to use for the photo shoot. I was so impressed with Rudy's makeup and the way it fit with all the crazy colors I was working with.
