Style Me Pretty New York

 

One thing I absolutely love about my job is helping a woman feel beautiful! For many women, our wedding day is one of the most photographed days of our lives. So that is where I come in with my photo shoot experience and makeup tips for creating a makeup and hair look that will not only last all day, but make you feel like the most beautiful woman ever.

I loved meeting Annette. She was a bride that knew what she wanted. When I asked her wedding style she described it as modern/vintage. And her desired makeup look as natural. With her beautiful lace Monique Lhuillier dress and vintage details she certainly achieved just that. As for her bridesmaids, she told them they could have their hair and makeup done as they wanted. So some went with modern and playful braided up-dos and other went all down with big waves. The makeup varied from dramatic smokey eyes with big feathery lashes to natural baby false lashes (a favorite for many who want a little something special but want to still look natural) and nude pink lips. In the end they all looked beautiful! What a fun day.

Vintage touches in a modern way...

I love my job! What easier job to make beautiful women feel and look their best on their wedding day. I meet so many beautiful brides to be. They are always beautiful on the inside and out…which makes my job even easier. I had the pleasure of doing Melody’s makeup and hair and some of her wedding party’s hair on her wedding day. I absolutely loved Melody’s vintage inspired blusher veil, it fit perfectly with her romantic up do with volume in the front and curls down the back. We also decided to give her a bright pink lip instead of red to give a modern touch to her vintage look.
