Why choose a makeup artist?

You should look amazing in your pictures! Therefore, hiring a makeup artist is a detail that should not be over-looked! The result will be a flawless face and gorgeous photos for you to look back on for years to come. After all of the effort that goes into planning a special event, how you look in the photographs is one of the most important considerations since they provide lasting memories.

A professional makeup artist has been trained in colour theory and state-of-the-art techniques. The knowledge of which colors and styles will work best on your features and how to best apply products is what will allow you to look your best.

Photographs tend to wash out and cast shadows on certain facial features and a professional makeup application can perfect your look by using expert techniques such as highlighting and contouring. By using professional products, colours and corrective techniques, annoyances such as dark under eye circles, blemishes, ruddy, sallow, and uneven skin tones disappear! Eyes stand out, cheeks look sleek, lips appear fuller, and the entire look can still be as light and natural as you desire!

The Trial

A true reflection of how beautiful you'll look in photos and in person.

In order to achieve your perfect look on your wedding day, it is highly recommended that you book a trial make-up and/or hairstyle run. During this appointment we will talk about your vision as well as ours, and decide on the look that will best enhance your natural beauty in photos and in person, discuss colours that will compliment your face shape, features and skin tone, as well as any other ideas you may have regarding your special look. It is suggested that you bring any photos, magazine tears and any other ideas you may have, including your headpiece, so that we can achieve exactly what you're looking for. We'll have the opportunity to discuss your wedding details and create your unique bridal look.

Bridal party members can also benefit from a trial application if they so desire. The ideal time to have your trial booked is approximately 2-4 months prior to the wedding. This trial can be booked (but not necessarily) for a special occasion such as an engagement photo, bachelorette party, bridal shower or other pre-wedding event. This complete, professional make-up application and/or hairstyle prior to your wedding day will allow us to perfect your personalized wedding look.

Wedding Day

Your artist(s) arrives at your chosen location at the pre-scheduled time to attend to all makeup and/or hairstyling requirements for the bride and bridal party. Professional application techniques and high quality products are used for a long lasting bridal makeup that will keep you looking radiant and fresh all day and night. The timing that was discussed at your trial will be adhered to and you will be relaxed while the artists take care of your beauty needs in the comfort of your home or hotel suite.
