Long hair up do 's ! Yasss. Please

Some of my fave parts of makeup is the transformations part, this brides look was nothing but classy. Classy makeup and French twist to match her timeless dress. We also did some anchoring for her heavier cathedral veil !

Koodos to my brides who have the confidence to let me post their before and afters ! 🥰

First fall bride !!!!!

✨ A little princess moment, because apparently “just a soft half-up” was not enough. 👑

Today’s bride got the full treatment, finished with a romantic half-up, half-down style that was giving modern princess without the tiara.

And the secret behind all that effortless fullness? Extensions. 🤫 I custom-order my bridal extensions to match my client’s exact shade and blend them into her natural hair so everything looks like it simply grew there.

Creating this kind of look takes more than curling a few pieces and pinning them up. It’s all about the foundation, placement, texture, balance and making sure those curls stay beautiful from the first photo to the last dance. ✨

The goal? She should look like the most beautiful version of herself, not like she’s wearing a hairstyle.

When the makeup looks so good it looks like AI did it 🙊😲 but I swear it didn't !!! All done by precise artistry, good makeup products, but nothing is more important than a great canvas to work with which in this case my bride had beautiful skin to begin with. 😍

Can't get over these look for this bride ! Such a classic speacially with a floor length veil ✨️

Wedding ready glam for this beau ! Soft glam, good skin, and a little extra ✨
