The beautiful pictures in this blog were provided by Lora
Mote. She and Julie were great to work
with. Trish was such a beautiful bride,
I’m sure you would agree. During her
trial she explained how her then fiancé wanted her to look. We created a look and pretty much nailed it on
the first try. Her wedding colors were a
beautiful deep blush pink, so we decided to use a soft pink pallet to
compliment.
The day of the wedding everyone was so calm, warm and
friendly. Trish was so relaxed and didn’t
seem to have a worry in the world. As
she sat and talked with her mom, I started on her beautiful sister’s hair and
makeup. I tried new colors on her
sister, colors she wasn’t used to but she loved it. I love introducing people
to colors they didn’t think would work on them. I then did her gorgeous niece’s hair. As you see this family has a lot of gorgeous,
thick, long hair- a whole lot J.
So I made sure to add extra pins, holding and setting spray not to mention it
was a misty day. Then I worked on her mom’s hair and makeup. She was absolutely
beautiful. By this time, the rest of her
bridal party started to come. They all
were doing their hair and makeup in another area of the house – they were such
fun. It was like a bunch of friend
hanging out. The atmosphere was still calm but now a bit more festive. Lastly, I begin working on Trish. I curled and set her hair with setting spray
and pins because I wanted these curls to last as long as possible. Then I started
on her makeup, I used a beautiful light pink on her lid and mix of brown and burgundy
in the crease and a soft highlight under her brow. I make sure to flawlessly
apply the Gratobian foundation. I
applied a little NARS blush in Orgasm and mix it with a little blush from my
MAC pallet because I love to custom mix my colors, especially for my brides. Every look I create is customized for them alone.
When Lora and Julie arrived to take the pictures they said
Trish looked like she was photo shopped in real life. What a compliment! They were so much fun to work with. They
provided a fun and light atmosphere and the result are these stunning photos.
I finished Trish off by applying a light pink lipstick but
then I changed it to a deeper burgundy to add a little more pop and plus this
was a color I knew would last all day. I
took her hair down and styled it and place the beautiful veil on her head. By now the Hummer Limo has pulled up and the
calm atmosphere turned into excitement and a rush to start loading to get this
party started. I did last minute touch
ups on Mom, Sister and Trish. I wished
her well and off she went. What a great
experience. She is such an amazingly
sweet person and I wish her and Damian all the very best life has to offer.
