Make up Before & After Pics
Makeup is often overlooked when planning your wedding, prom or other special occasion. People always remember their hair, but they don’t realize
that to look good in your Photos, you really need to have professional makeup applied for photographic results. After all, people see your face first and what you may not notice with your naked eye will be captured forever by the camera, possibly belying your natural beauty.... Similar to other professions, makeup artists specialize within their discipline. Our trained makeup artists understand how lasting images are created and use the proper tools and techniques to achieve the best photographic results for your unique features and wedding setting. Being camera-ready will produce infinitely more flattering and much more natural photographic results. |
Hair styling Hair Style pictures
Whether you're getting married, or this is another special and important day of your life,
The most important thing to remember when choosing a hairstyle is to never lose your personal identity. While many women tend to put their hair up in a fancy updo for their big day, this may not be the best hairstyle for you. Think about what you like best; up or down; flowing or big; dark or light and what hairstyle you would be most comfortable moving around and socializing in all day and night, as well as what kind of hairstyle best suits you, your face shape and your personality. Our stylists we'll work with you to be sure the style is right for you.you'll want everything to look perfect – the flowers, the invites, the dresses, the photos, your makeup and of course, your hairstyle. |

"My personal choice and philosophy is soft, subtle Make-up, to enhance your best features and make you look naturally radiant and beautiful on your big day. My goal is to have people notice you, not your make-up. When they look at you, they see you, your radiance, beauty and sparkle, not your makeup. There are many women however, that like a more dramatic look. If that is your style, please let me know so I can accomodate your needs."
