Welcome to the A-team
@akmakeup_styling !!
We are excited to announce our newest addition to the styling roster Anne Kohlhagen. Anne is a New York based prop and texture stylist whose work blends beauty, art, and sculpture. Her compositions transform makeup into tactile, expressive forms, drawing early inspiration from the painterly product visuals of brands like NARS and Laura Mercier.
With a BFA in Graphic Design, years spent painting in San Francisco, and a 17-year career as a makeup artist in New York, Anne brings a deep understanding of color, texture, and material to everything she creates. She approaches the tabletop set as an open canvas, guided by experimentation and intuition.
Alongside her styling work, she creates realistic custom botanical models through her studio, Welk Studios, bringing a distinctive, hands-on approach to building imagery from the ground up.
Defined by a clean, graphic, and painterly aesthetic, Anne’s work stands out for its ability to push products beyond their expected use. Whether crafting sculptural botanicals through Welk Studios or collaborating on set, her practice is rooted in curiosity, adaptability, and a love of making.
Select clients include: Bare Minerals, CeraVe, Covergirl, Chantecaille, IT Cosmetics, Juvia’s Place, Lancôme, Laura Mercier, MAC Cosmetics, Makeup by Mario, Maybelline, Merit, Olay, Revlon, Surratt
