:::Revealing Beaute::: Wedding Wednesday features Brides & Beauty

On the job with my lovely bride, Carmen

Bridal Makeup is one trend that should always be the epitome of clean beauty. On your big day, you should display a classic, sultry and timeless beauty look. This is because your images are for a lifetime and you want to look your best.


Wedding day makeup should enhance your natural features.  A lot of brides request neutral looks or a soft smokey eye. Some even consider bold lips like reds and pinks. I'm definitely in for red lips. It's okay to have your Marilyn Monroe moment every now and then!


Prepare to have a consultation.  This will allow you to have your makeup done and see how it works for you.  It will give you a day to wear the actual look and give you the security that your potential artist is the right choice.

I encourage all brides to have a consultation with a makeup artist.  This will help with the "surprise" moments and we don't want those.  If you are looking for that right artist (which you should), search your area and don't be afraid to have more than one consultation.

Bridal Bliss

I adore working with brides. When you are in a position to walk a woman through her "journey of becoming", the feeling is AMAZING. Last year, I had the pleasure of working with Carmen, and she was just beyond what words could explain. Carmen is a natural beauty, so it was definitely easy to fit her for coverage, color, etc. Carmen's look was inspired by her love for natural beauty and warm earth tones. I'm blessed to have her as a client.
