About the Event
2012 Event Coverage by Ariel Amaro Photo + Video
Couples (and wedding planners) sign up and receive up to 2 hair and makeup trial runs then they get to work with up to 6 photographers from different companies all over Southern California that are matched according to style, price, personality and date availability. These photographers will shoot stunning, beautiful, romantic, and whimsical engagement photos of you and your fiance and the best part about it is you will get all your high res files sent to you by the next month. You will get all this, a $1,500 value for only $50 per person. Oh, and did I mention you will also be able to get in on the crazy insane auction? The amount you could save in actual items you need for your wedding day is incredible. We have obtained some phenomenal items from other businesses in Southern California that you could win at a tenth of its actual cost. So, if only you can make it to this event, please come and enjoy the other showcasing vendors along with the silent and live auctions.
Mission Statement: Charity Shootouts is an organization founded by Beverly Hills wedding photographer, Jen O’Sullivan to bring makeup and hair artists along with new and seasoned, talented photographers together with engaged couples searching for the perfect engagement photos while hopefully finding just the right photographer for their wedding day all in a huge effort to raise money for charity.

Hello, I just came across your event on a freinds facebook page. It sounds very interesting.
I am curious if supplying makeup artists for your event would be of interest for you. I have access to makeup artists from newbies to seasoned veterans and thought this may be an opportunity to improve the makeups on the couples, which would make for better, more improved images or perhaps just a way for some artists to also promote their services at some type of booths or however the photographers are promoting themselves. Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks for your time.
Sincerely,
Donna Mee
