Beautiful, Blushing Brides & Everyone Else

I love my job in that I get to work with people from all walks of life. One adventurous avenue I partake in is makeup artistry, particularly bridal makeup. 

Over the weekend I had the opportunity to work with a couple of lovely ladies who were a part of a bridal party.  One of them (mother of the bride) hardly ever wears makeup and the other (sister of the bride) was there to do her supportive duty as a bridesmaid.  Both had come in for a makeup application. (Thank you, Jonathan from Salon Centri, for the referral)

Now let me tell you, around 8 or 9 years ago, I had barely ever picked up a tube of mascara, let alone purchased eye shadow or blush. (I was raised with two brothers, what can I say? I'm a tomboy at heart.) After esthetician school, I decided to further my education by attending Schweitzer Studios Makeup Academy to continue my education in makeup artistry.  (My artistry was...er...well, I wanted/needed to improve my, um, skills? I'll leave it at that.) Sharona Schweitzer had come highly recommended and is a very talented makeup artist, not to mention one of the most positive people I have ever met!  Love that lady! 

After Academy, I was prepped and ready to dive into makeup artistry and it has been such an awesome trip thus far!  Last summer I traveled to and got lost in Vancouver, BC to attend my first IMATS (International Makeup Artist Trade Show) to see all the wonderful, crazy makeup artistry out there. It's AMAZING! Some day I will dive into that realm of movie/theatrical makeup, but for now I love working with bridal parties. (I dabble a little in theater makeup, but that's primarily on my aerial ladies and gents.)

Bridal parties are one of my favorite groups to work with.  Most experiences are positive, but for the few who are having a rough go of it, we usually get to laughing so much that by the end of their time in my seat, they're much more relaxed and cheerful. (Oh family...we love each other and sure know how to push each others buttons don't we?)

Take it from me, hire a makeup artist for your wedding.  We'll keep your bridal party looking fabulous for those memorable moments.  P.S. I can help your groom get ship shape for those wedding photo's too. Acne gort of 2014 BE GONE!
