Airbrush or not for engagement photos...

Monica SC, on September 17, 2014 at 12:36 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 2

E-pics are about 3 weeks out, and I'm ready to book my hair and make-up. A lot of my friends have suggested I get my makeup done at Sephora or Ulta....which isn't a bad idea. The Ulta in town rocks, but I'm wondering if getting it airbrushed at a salon might be a better idea. Tell me your experiences-did it make much of a difference, in your opinion?

    I had one of my co workers do my makeup for the engagement pictures. I don't know if I would airbrush I've heard sometimes it doesn't come out the way you like and the engagemet pictures are not as important to me as the wedding photos. I would say try it before just to make sure you like it.

    I was planning to just go to a counter at the mall for my makeup and I was going to do my e-pics in Hawaii where I live. Well we were visiting California (where our wedding is) and decided on a whim to get e-pics with our wedding photographer. I immediately contacted the person I want as my makeup artist to see if she was available to do my makeup trial and she was. She does airbrush for weddings so my trial was airbrush. I really loved the way the airbrush looked, it was great for my pictures. The only thing I didn't like was how dark my eyes were and the false eyelashes. If you can do your makeup trial the same day that is a great way to kill two birds with one stone, but otherwise I don't think it's really worth it to spend extra for airbrush at a salon. Regular makeup will do just fine! Here are a couple pics, the first is my before and after, the second is from my e-pics (cropped to show makeup better).
