So, your big day has arrived, and everything is ready. Dress, flowers, photographer. What about your makeup artist?
Ok, this is a little different in the Mid-west. But, on the coasts, an on-location makeup artist is a standard part of the bride's entourage. They make sure that she looks perfect throughout her day and on into the evening.
Here are some key points when you consider a makeup professional. A committed makeup artist will help you plan a regimen, well in advance of your wedding, for improving the natural beauty and condition of your skin.
A really good makeup artist understands the difference between daily makeup and makeup for film and photography. That's important because with incorrect technique, the bride's skin loses that natural radiance and glow in photos.
It's always a good idea to do a run-through consultation a month or so before the wedding. This will include an application of your bridal makeup. That way, there won't be any surprises on your wedding day.
Weddings run on a tight schedule. A good makeup artist will be thorough but also efficient. She or he will make sure that everything happens on time. So, in selection a makeup artist, extensive experience with weddings is a must.
The location artist that I have worked with most frequently is Natalie Bartling. Natalie's studio is called One Makeup Artistry ( onemakeupartistry.com ). And, she provides a variety of services including full day coverage. That's nice because the brides always look as perfect for their first dance as they did when they came down the aisle.
