Boudoir Hair/makeup and Gratuities?

Hello there,

I have a boudoir session today and it’s a whole package, including hair/makeup. It’s unclear as to who/how many are involved in it, or the price value of the hair/makeup service to determine a proper tip. Do we tip at all here? What should I tip?

I would probably tip the hair and makeup artist(s). I assume the photographer will want you to pay for prints? I'd wait until you get the results to tip them.

If I understand correctly, the package includes an album of prints that I choose.

I did a boudoir shoot last October and everything aside from the album and prints was included. The MUA/hairstylist was included in the cost, and I actually was not aware that tipping photographers and MUA was a thing, so I didn't tip. However I did help her out by signing a model release contract, and I have sold some of my handmade goods to her for her business, so sometime in the future I'll do something for her in terms of a tip of sorts.

That's definitely one of those times where you just need to bring a bunch of tens to make sure you can cover everyone!
I hope the shoot went well!!
